Who We Are
Bruce Farrant serves as Native American/First Nations Ministries Coordinator with Mission to North America. Bruce joined MNA staff in June 2006 after serving with his wife Linda on the Cherokee Indian Reservation in North Carolina for seven years with Mission to the World.
God has given Bruce and Linda a passion to see churches planted throughout Native American/First Nations communities and to see Indigenous pastors raised up and equipped to serve in churches. They are working to raise the awareness of this challenge and to encourage, facilitate and empower those engaged in reaching out in love and humility to the many Tribes scattered across North America.
After completing seminary training at Reformed Theological Seminary, Bruce served as a pastor in the Presbyterian Church of America in churches in Mississippi and Georgia. After seven years in the pastorate, Bruce and Linda felt God tugging at their hearts to be more directly involved in missions. Their years of service in Cherokee deepened their desire to see God expand the ministry opportunities to take the Gospel of grace to Native American/First Nations and are now pursuing that vision with MNA.
The Farrants have four grown children and seven grandchildren. Homebase for Life Path Ministries is Maryville, Tennessee. Exciting things are happening in MNA Native American/First Nations Ministries. It has been so encouraging to see folks awakening to the great challenges and opportunities that God is bringing into focus. For the most part, historically, “the church” failed miserably to follow God’s command to love our neighbors where our “first neighbors” in North America were concerned. Now we have the opportunity to reach out with the Gospel of Grace to love our all-but-forgotten “first neighbors” as He commanded.
As Senior Staff with MNA we are raising our full support just as any other missionary does. We invite you to join us in this great endeavor of bringing God’s Life Path to the reservations of North America through your prayers and giving.
