The West Chicago Church of Christ has a long history of supporting international missions. Currently
we have a relationship with Jarrod and Allison Brown of Mission
Lazarus in Honduras. For more information about how to support
Mission Lazarus go to their Web site.
Mission
Lazarus
In the expansive rural areas
of Latin America the most effective way to introduce souls
to Christ lies in spiritual, educational, medical, and agricultural
outreaches. These four areas support the holistic goal of
Mission Lazarus to serve individuals and present Gods
unconditional love.

World
Bible School
Since the 1950's, WBS has been sending Bible
correspondence courses free-of-charge to students around the
world. We now serve over 2 million students from 141 nations.
The courses were first written by Christians for Christians
who served in the armed forces overseas. These men and women
separated by war and distance from other believers had difficulty
finding opportunities to gather for fellowship, Bible study,
prayer and encouragement. To their delight, the Christian
service men found their fellow soldiers had a great interest
and hunger for learning from the Word of God and they began
sharing the materials with thousands who were not Christians.
WBS continues to send Bible study correspondence courses to
eager students through the postal mail, by email, and on the
world wide web. Of course, they are all STILL - free of charge.
We encourage you to continue through the site and discover
how people's deepest needs are being met and their lives are
being changed by learning more about God and His will through
World Bible School.

Obadiah Abimiku Doka
Doka was born in Nigeria. After a remarkable story of conversion from a family upbringing involving witchcraft and the Muslim faith Doka, through contacts from America, was sponsored to come to America to study the Bible. He received a degree in May of 2000 from Freed-Hardeman University in Henderson, TN. Doka has now returned to Nigeria. After a brief time back in Keffi, where the church has continued to grow, Doka and Naomi and their children have moved to Abuja, where they believe there is more opportunity to spread the faith.
