Inspired By Jesus
We choose to live according to HIS will by focusing on these Biblical principles:
Matt 28:19 “Go and make disciples…”
Mark 16:15 “Go and preach to all nations…”
Therefore, we teach and equip our students with fundamental Biblical principles while developing their ministry skills. We aim to raise strong Christian leaders, so that they may plant churches and serve people of different cultures, social statuses, and age groups: locally as well as globally.
Our Story
Slavic Missionary Bible School was established in 2005 and was a catalyst for all the programs and schools under the current SMBS Ministries. Our vision is to teach fundamental Biblical knowledge and inspire students to participate in missionary work.
We saw a great need for our Slavic teens to have an unforgettable summer where they can experience group activities, learn life skills and become rooted in the Christian faith. Our Teens Bible School program began in 2012 and has become our most attended program within the year.
After having our original school in session for ten years, we saw our vision of going and making disciples come to reality with the opening of Intensive Discipleship Training program in 2015.
