Meserete Kristos College

We have a special interest in Meserete Kristos College because of the involvement of Carl and Vera Hansen in this project. Carl and Vera are from the Duchess Church, and Carl also pastored the Salem Mennonite Church in Tofield. Carl is presently teaching, fund raising, and acting as general council to the President, Negash Kebede. Vera has been busy setting up and computerizing the library. 
 
MKC was founded in Ethiopia in 1994 as a simple Bible School, but its vision is to become a full Christian University. It is presently a seminary specializing in the training of church leaders. As of the fall of 2009 they had 133 students enrolled.

In January, 2007 the entire campus moved 45 kilometers to Debre Zeit where they have been working hard to create their dream campus, pictured below. They have finished the Education Building and guest house and have started building dormitories. The dormitories have taken longer than expected because of escalating costs. Donations to MKC can be made through NWMC.
