Dr. Integre Mission Partner Visit: Come and meet CPC global partner Dr. Itengre on Monday, September 15, at 7 pm. Dr. Integre serves outcast women in Burkina Faso.

Their clinic also trains women in essential skills to reintegrate into society. It's a beautiful picture of the hope and restoration that we find in the gospel! Come and hear his story and about his ministry. Register today!
