PRESENT MINISTRIES
Free Methodists in Cameroon are enlarging their work by starting new fellowships in Douala, Bamenda and Yaoundé, the capital city of Cameroon. Leaders and church planters are currently being trained to reach new places with no churches or a Free Methodist Church presence. God has opened a door for FMC Cameroon in the north, and the Rev. Wilson Esambe is preparing to reach out to these Muslim-dominated regions of the north. The FMC in Cameroon started a Bible-training program in 2023 to train local leaders to become church planters and ministers of the gospel. Those who complete this training will be sent to different regions of the country to start Free Methodist churches and/or start new church plants.
