Our Mission
Beyond the road to self-sufficiency
Marfa Ministry, established April 2012, is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit that was formed to support churches of the world struggling to be self-sufficient. As self-sufficiency is achieved, emphasis for them now shifts to outreach in their individual communities.
Founded by Janet Fisher, member of the First United Methodist Church in Denton, Texas, the ministry has grown from one to eight partners in the Eurasian Conference of the United Methodist Church.
Janet and Dennis have traveled to Eurasia annually since 2002. They have witnessed first-hand the impact when self-sufficiency is reached and the emphasis changes to outreach, for the good of all.
Marfa Ministry is a nonprofit corporation and is not organized for the personal gain of any person. It was organized under the laws for charitable purposes. Specifically, it was designed to serve Christ by addressing the needs of small churches in Eurasia in their journey to self-sufficienty and beyond.
