Who we are

Christian Business International, formerly the Romanian Christian Business Development Project, has a vision that is best described in the following three statements:

Train local church leadership and congregations in financial management principles.

We are a 501c3 non-profit ministry under the United States Tax Code, and are currently working in southeast Romania with opportunities to minister in several other countires.

Fifth Year Progress

Our team has just returned from a "Phase 2" conference held in Corbu, Constanta County, October 10-14. We had six prospective business owners of five businesses with whom we worked to build 36-month business models to investigate how the businesses would operate in the "real world." We also made visits to 13 existing businesses to encourage and pray for them and hold them accountable for staying with their own plans and being faithful with both their loan repayments and honoring their "Kingdom Impact" strategies.

Come and see the next step!

Saturday, January 16th, 2010, at 6 PM, at Ernie Davis' home. We are asking anyone who is interested in joining us as a business development coach either this year or in the future to come find out more about this exciting ministry. We will share more details about the tools we use, the process we employ to help potential entrepreneurs in developing countries "flesh out" their business ideas and formulate a realistic and usable business plan.
