Week 17 | BROOK

SERVING IN THE MIDDLE EAST SINCE 2019

Brook grew up in Virginia and attended MBC Tysons as a child. While on an MBC short-term trip to the Dominican Republic as a teenager, she was challenged to consider serving the Lord overseas as a missionary. 

After college, she served on MBC staff. During those years, her interest in serving overseas continued to grow. After much prayer and counsel, she was commissioned as an MBC missionary in 2019 and moved to a region in the Middle East to minister to Muslims.

In describing her work, she says, “We have all heard of unreached people groups before and their great need, but we must remember that behind each number is a face and a name….God led me to the Middle East to intentionally plant my life here to invest in these people; to see men, women, and communities come to know the radical love of Jesus—the one true God—and to see churches planted, thriving and healthy, in this part of the world.”

ENCOURAGEMENTS FROM 2023

Over the previous year, Brook continued to build deep relationships with local friends. She was trained in Advanced Trauma Care, which equipped her to minister to women fleeing war and domestic abuse who often live as refugees in a foreign country. Brook has been serving in this location for almost five years and she looks forward to the next season of life and ministry.
