Eric and Suzana Papp and family are missionaries in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Eric is the son of Campbell UMC members, Mike and Laura Papp and grew up in the Campbell Youth Group and accepted Christ there. Eric and Suzana's work in Brazil includes planning gospel-centered churches, offering training to develop servants, and ministering to the poor communities through the library they have established. Campbell holds an annual fundraiser event, Pappcakes, to support Eric and Suzana and their 3 girls in Brazil. For more information, contact Joy Perry through our church office at 417-881-2018.
Rainbow Network exists to help rural communities in Nicaragua overcome economic poverty and our holistic approach makes this possible. They offer programs in 4 vital areas of societal life: healthcare, education, economic development, and housing. The network looks to provide a hand up rather than a hand out and they make lasting changes in the communities they serve. Rainbow Network is a top-rated not-for-profit agency founded by Campbell UMC members, Keith and Karen Jaspers. Fundraising opportunities occur throughout the year.
