About Bangla Ministries Worldwide (also reported as Bangla Bible Correspondence Institute)

Bangla Ministries Worldwide (legally reported as Bangla Bible Correspondence Institute, EIN 38-3307818) is a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) donor-facing ministry headquartered in Zeeland, Michigan that supports a growing network of small-group Bible studies and disciple-making work among Bengali-speaking people in Bangladesh and in North America. The organization operates a training-and-graduation model (the “BMW Model”) that emphasizes discussion-based Bible study, local leadership development, and yearly graduations; recent annual reports document significant program growth, multi-district expansion, and measurable outreach activity in Bangladesh. Bangla Ministries files public Form 990s and publishes annual reports describing staffing, program milestones, financials, and a multi-year growth initiative called “Project Everest” aimed at scaling ministry to every district in Bangladesh by 2030.

Notable achievements

Project Everest growth

Launched to expand ministry across Bangladesh, Project Everest delivered multi-year growth (reported as 25x participant growth over ten years) and added six new districts in 2024, moving the program past the halfway mark toward its district goal.

Scale of Bible studies and graduations

Reported program numbers rose (e.g., from about 7,781 in 2023 to 8,364 in 2024) with multiple district graduations (33 districts held graduations in the most recent year) and annual certificate/Bible presentations celebrating student completion.

Local leadership and conversions

The ministry reports training hundreds of local volunteers and staff (national staff over 50–60), running regional camps and Rapid Action Groups (RAGs) that recorded hundreds of outreach contacts and over 240 registered decisions for salvation at recent events.
