Bekele Shanko is the global vice presiden for Global Church Moments at Campus Crusade for Christ International (Cru), working in over 150 countries to build movements of multiplying churches and faith communities.

Bekele is the President of GACX and leads the church planting focus for Finishing the Task.
God has been using congregations of all shapes and sizes throughout the history of his church to grow his family, including churches just like yours. It’s a big, beautiful task, but thankfully there is no one more passionate and powerful to save his people than God.
Technological tools and digital strategies are crucial in church planting efforts. From solar-powered projectors to the metaverse, new advances are being used globally to introduce people to Christ and invite them to follow Him.
GACX is co-sponsoring a church multiplication conference in Batam, Indonesia (a small Indonesian island accessible by ferry from Singapore) next February 24th through March 2nd, 2024 in conjunction with Global Church Planting Network (GCPN) and Lausanne.
