Morocco's indigenous Berber people, descendants of North Africa's pre-Arab inhabitants, are struggling to make their voices heard despite their ancient Amazigh-language winning official recognition in 2011 after decades of campaigning.

In the above verse, the Apostle Paul tells us that his aim was to tell people about the good news of Jesus Christ, where no one had preached about Him before. As followers of the Bible, that is our aim also.

Bryce and Bethany met while they were attending Calvary Chapel Bible College in Austria. They were married 1 1/2 years later and then moved to St. George. They felt the Lord calling them into the mission field but agreed to serve one year at Calvary Chapel St. George to gain ministry experience before being sent out.

Calvary Chapel St. George is ministering to an African country located in the 10-40 window.  Specifically we are called to the unreached Berber people. They are a people group comprised of approximately five million people that have been in existence for nearly four thousands years. They predate Mohamed and the Islamic faith by two thousand six hundred years, yet this group is now almost entirely Muslim.

The people group CCSG is ministering to, have never had a New Testament in their language. Anything they know about Jesus, the Bible, salvation, and forgiveness of sins, has been distorted and passed down through the Muslim religious leaders, the Imams. It is estimated that there is only one or two Christian workers per million followers of Mohamed. Truly, this is an unreached people group who are in desperate need of reconciliation to the Father through the Son.
