Romania
The lore of Dracula brings thousands to explore the history and beauty of Romania, from its castles to the idyllic countryside. Formerly part of the Soviet Union, Romania is quickly rising out of the impoverished state leftover from that era. Still, economic growth is an impossible dream for many orphans and widows, who struggle to for food and hope for the future. Will you share the good news of being remembered and loved by God with those who feel forgotten and alone?
Bulgaria
This southern-central European country is the 16th largest in Europe. Its geography is varied with mountain ranges, plains and a coastline along the Black Sea. Its economy is growing, but among all the European Union members it ranks lowest in terms of income. Organized crime is an issue as is human trafficking. Bulgaria is mainly a source of trafficking in persons yet also, to a lesser extent, a transit point and destination of trafficking. Here, about half the population claims to be orthodox and over 10% are Muslim. You can bring light and hope to this nation caught between “developed” and “developing.”
Ministry:
You will partner with Hope Church, focused on reaching the lost and bringing Christ to these people through physical and spiritual needs. In this area, less than 0.02% of the population know Christ in a personal way. Hope Church ministers these people through discipleship and evangelism in various ways, including but not limited to: kids’ ministry, street evangelism, home visits, soccer ministry, widows ministry, and encouraging the believers in the town and villages.
Will you share the hope and love of Christ in Eastern Europe?
