Building Bridges, Building the Church

A Collaborative Vision for Healthy Ministry in Morocco

Why do many church initiatives struggle to create lasting impact in Morocco?

Why do promising ministries often fade away after a few years?

Why do tensions sometimes arise between local believers, church leaders, and foreign missionaries?

After more than 30 years of experience observing and participating in Christian ministry in Morocco, Fouad Fes offers a candid examination of the challenges facing the Moroccan Church and presents practical solutions for building a healthier future.

This book does not avoid difficult questions.

It addresses issues that are often discussed privately but rarely explored openly:

• The relationship between missionaries and local believers
• Leadership challenges within the Moroccan Church
• Dependency on foreign funding
• The rise of false believers motivated by personal gain
• Lack of discipleship and leadership development
• Financial transparency and accountability
• Building strong indigenous churches
• Strengthening the faith of Moroccan Christians
• Creating unity between missionaries and local church leaders

More importantly, this book provides a constructive path forward.

Rather than focusing only on problems, it presents a biblical vision for an authentic, healthy, self-sustaining Moroccan Church led by mature believers who are equipped to serve their communities and strengthen future generations.
