Christian Rural Evangelism Network (CREN) is an international group of believers striving to help spread the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ according to the Holy Bible to remote, poor and marginalised areas of the world. CREN is affiliated with the Message of Rev. William Marrion Branham, believed to be a prophet of God for this age.
Christian Rural Evangelism Network specifically targets deprived places in the world with poor road access and communication infrastructure. CREN works with trusted local Christians and ministers of the Gospel to help reach out to surrounding remote areas. Resources such as bicycles are made available to enable access to places that cannot be reached easily by motor vehicles. In addition, the Christian Rural Evangelism Network provides Christian resources including Bibles, recorded sermons (in print or digital form) of Rev. William Marrion Branham and short tracts/flyers for witnessing.
Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

How CREN Works
Christian Rural Evangelism Network (CREN) firmly believes that the saving of the soul is purely of God. All that men can do is avail themselves to preach and spread the Gospel. CREN intends to use an operating model below with much prayer and God’s leadership. This is by no means a rigid structure as CREN will always allow the Holy Spirit to guide and lead in unique circumstances or requests brought forward.
Christian Rural Evangelism Network (CREN) essentially focuses on reaching out to communities around the world that are remote and mostly marginalised. These places are typically far from major cities and are difficult to reach by major transport modes such as road, rail and air. Such remote and marginalised areas are likely to have had little or no encounter with the Gospel and the Message of Rev. William Marrion Branham.
CREN’s operating model seeks to find local believers, in and around such areas, with a sincere burden for missionary work. These believers then become an essential part of the network tasked with testifying, encouraging new believers in those areas, distributing Christian materials such as Bibles/tracts as well as establishing seed libraries of the Message of Rev. William Marrion Branham. CREN provides logistics to get the work going including modes of transport, groundwork plans and equipment such as tents and public address systems.
Christian Rural Evangelism Network is not affiliated to or controlled by a specific church or group of churches anywhere in the world. The network connects with any individual or local church promoting the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ and the Message of Rev. William Marrion Branham.
“We’re not building an organization. I’m not here this morning to build an organization. Christ never sent me to build organization. Christ sent me to build individuals to the stature of Jesus Christ, that they might be the powerhouse and the dwelling place of the Spirit, by His Word. By His Word, see, build up the individual to that place. Not build an organization to a greater denomination, but build the individual to sons and daughters of God. That’s the idea.”
