World Mission Centre is called to provoke, enthuse and inspire the body of Christ so that it may be released to the task of world evangelization.

World Mission Center Regions


FOUNDED IN 1989

World Mission Centre was founded in 1989 by Willie and Lydia Crew. Willie and Lydia continue to serve as ambassadors and oversee other world regions where WMC operates. The leadership team consists of 13 who have all served the organization in various capacities. Many of which have served for more than 15 years. Every day we are blessed to see how God is using this team around the world to provoke, inspire, equip, and release leaders to the task of finishing the great commission.

The Live School project has seen a huge acceleration in the last year. Our leadership team is constantly traveling around the world to encourage team members and Live School students in the 97 countries we work in, while also engaging with new pastors and churches in those countries. Our staff members keep the wheels turning in the administrative offices.

“God is looking for people through whom He can do the impossible. What a pity we plan to do only the things that we can do by ourselves.”

With Live School’s development and international growth, World Mission Centre opened a USA regional office. This office is responsible for most of the organization’s outward communication, administration, fundraising and media related services. This office also handles the translation of the Live School, communicating Live School’s story, and and the technological development of the LS unit.

PROJECTS OF WORLD MISSION CENTRE
World Mission Centre is headquartered in South Africa with an additional administrative office in the USA. In addition to these two administrative offices, we currently have six regional Live School offices that roll-out the Live School curriculum in Southern Africa, East Africa, West Africa and Central Africa, North Africa/Middle East, Former Soviet Union, and the Caribbean. These offices are supported by the international mentoring, special operations, and media departments in the USA. Currently, World Mission Centre is putting most of its time and resources into the development and roll-out of its largest project, the Live School.

To help the churches (especially in South Africa) be released into missions, we found it helpful to develop ministry models that churches could adopt and begin their work in world evangelization. These models were developed and tested within the organization first and then made available for churches to use. Some of these projects were:
