ABOUT US

We’ve been developing a clear pathway for effective missions in Africa

Our Story

In 2010, a young Kenyan couple sensed God’s call to North Africa. But during a season of prayer and waiting, something shifted. Through the story of Joshua and Caleb—two men who saw what others couldn’t and declared, “We can take this land”—God impressed a different vision on their hearts: don’t go alone. Mobilise the church, and go together.

That vision became the Mission Campaign Network (MCN).

Over the past 15 years, MCN has grown from a small initiative into a movement with teams in Kenya, Rwanda, South Africa, and the United Kingdom. Along the way, it has developed a proven pathway that guides believers and churches from initial awareness of God’s global mission through mobilisation, missional discipleship and equipping, all the way to long-term sending and member care among unreached communities and nations through GEN12.

2005 : MCN was launched

The vision to mobilize the Church for God’s mission to the nations was given to the founders of MCN in September 2009 during a time of prayer and fasting through the story of Joshua and Caleb in Numbers 13 and 14.

We believe in Partnership

— YOUR CHURCH STAYS AT THE CENTER

MCN was founded on the biblical conviction that God’s mission can only be accomplished through kingdom partnership. We intentionally work in partnership with the local church.

This means we don’t recruit your church’s members. We strengthen your missional and sending capacity. We walk alongside churches from awareness, training and equipping, commissioning, support, mutual accountability, and care—as genuine partners in the Great Commission.

That is why we established GEN12 as a distinct sending arm—so that both mobilisation and sending receive the focused attention they require, while ensuring that the central role of the church is never diminished but strengthened.
