Mission College began in 1980 as a dream of two gospel workers. Louis Torres was working in the Missouri Conference as a pastor and conference evangelist. While he and his wife Carol were conducting meetings in various places, they saw there was a real need for trained gospel workers. All through their ministry they had been training their church members and other workers. They saw that there were specific things that helped those who were trained to excel in service for the Lord.

Two or three groups are trained a year here at the Laurelwood campus.

There is a group of students that started in September 2009. They will be training in the Portland/Stone Tower area. Graduation will be December 12th at 4pm.
