This is the first time we have had Leadership Training for Mizo leaders outside of Mizoram. Through the work of Liana & Ngeni Mualchin of MCGN International Headquarters, MLT was held from October 29 to November 11, 2001, followed by a study field trip. The first week took place at Church of the Foothills (COTF), Cameron Park, CA and the second week at Liberty Christian Center (LCC), Fairfield, CA. The following participants from Mizoram, India came to attend the training:

• For your prayers for Mizo Leadership Training (MLT) in USA. Things go very well.
• To our wonderful Father for answering our prayers and faithfully providing our needs. We have seen His faithfulness everyday and "Great is Thy faithfulness!" 
• To great contributors for our various needs: speakers, lunch providers, home providers, leaders of morning devotion, etc. They made our leadership training successful.
• To Church of the Foothills (COTF), Cameron Park, California for providing a nice room, facility, and other needs for the leadership training.
• To Liberty Christian Center (LCC), Fairfield, California for co-sponsoring MLT, providing the needs of the Mizo visitors with much love, and sharing various dynamic ministries. 
• To Nancy Glogauer and her staff at the Parasol Foundation, Incline Village, Nevada for their generosity and willingness to help MCGN.

He is now a full-time Associate Pastor at Liberty Christian Center, Fairfield, California. He is responsible for counseling, new memberships, and Liberty Mission International (LMI). LMI sends teams to Latin America and East European countries, and also to Prince Edward Island, Canada. Pastor Bruce started the first Christian school in his community, and from that small beginning many Christians schools are now in the region. He has also founded Kingdom Builder Construction Company "to build buildings and people". One of his next projects is to work among the people in Rumania where the Gospel will be introduced to non-Christians as they work together in the construction business. He is a Bible teacher and a motivator of people. In short, Pastor Moore's passion is to build up people for God's Kingdom. He will share his visions for the benefit of the Mizo leaders briefly in Placerville and more fully when the Mizo group goes to LCC in Fairfield.

Following this in the mid-70's, he opened an OM's office in Finland, the home country of his wife, Annelli. From there, a team was formed in neighboring Holland to pray for one year for another ship and crew similar to LOGOS. The prayer was answered in the late 70's and Frank became the Director of the second ship, DOULOS from 1979 to 1984. Trips were made to Latin America with great results. Frank became the OM Field Leader in Latin America from 1985 to 1995 which he eventually handed over to others. He has been Minister-at-large to OM since 1995. 

Frank occasionally speaks for Perspective, a unique series of mission lectures. As his record indicates, he is a proven leader for the Lord's Kingdom.
