ROMANIA

Romania is an agriculturally rich region that has enjoyed steady progress since overthrowing its communist regime in 1989. Its Black Sea coastlines have become a popular tourism destination while the Carpathian Mountains tower over the west.

Beginning in 1947, Romania became an independent communist state with a highly oppressive regime. The secret police were among the most ruthless and invasive in Eastern Europe. Under communist rule, the Church faced widespread persecution. Christians endured forced labor, torture, exile, and even death. 

In December 1989, a swift and bloody revolution swept through Romania following the government’s attempted ousting of pastor László Tőkés in Timișoara. Protests turned into riots that eventually led to the arrest and execution of President Nicolae Ceaușescu on Christmas Day. 

Since the fall of communism, a significant revival has swept through Romania. The pain endured by so many Christians has set the stage for an amazing new chapter in the Church’s history and you can be a part of it.

Today, there are nearly 6,000 churches established across the country. With Europe’s fourth largest evangelical population, Romania has become a strategic focus for missions agencies who are planting churches in the country’s unchurched villages. Still, 67,000 people remain completely unreached within Romania and countless communities are still without a local church.

There are 145 million Russians.  Sadly, only   .7% are evangelical Christians.  Not even 1%!  This can be discouraging if we look at the “glass as half empty”.  Thankfully the leadership here in the states as well as our Russian nationals are looking at this with encouraged hearts.  They know that God is going before them, opening doors that would normally be closed, and preparing the way for the truth of Christ to go out. There’s a great need for people to go with us to share the truth of Christ to the Russian people.  Out of 180 people groups, 76 of them are unreached.  Our plan is to reach these groups as quickly yet effectively as we can. But to be able to do this, people have to go….or be an active part in sending. 

As we've been strategizing with our nationals who live in Russia and as the doors are starting to close, there’s an urgency to reach them with the love and hope that only Jesus can give.  The recent legislation that was passed is making is difficult to share the gospel but NOT IMPOSSIBLE. They need our help now more than ever. As Jesus commands us in Matthew 28:19, we must go and make disciples to all the nations.  This is where God has placed my heart and I believe until the whole world hears we must be active in spreading His gospel.  Come join with me in reaching them with the truth and hope that only Jesus Christ can bring them.  I would be honored to have you partner with me in this calling.

I believe I have been called to be a full time missionary to Russia with e3 Partners Ministry.  As a full time missionary, I'm gone, 3-4 times a year, for 2 plus weeks at a time.  I will be putting in hours upon hours to spread the opportunity to others to go on trips as well as helping others train, prepare and fundraise for their trips.  I will be learning how to lead these teams of missionaries onto the mission field and successfully allow God to work through them to reach those who don't know the truth of Jesus Christ.

This position is support based which means, I need monthly support to be able to accomplish all that God has called me to do.  This is my full time job and I need your help and support to do this. When you partner with me financially and in prayer, you are giving to the kingdom, to reach the lost with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Any amount you can commit to monthly would be a blessing.  No amount is too small (or too big).  It would be a blessing and honor to have you partner with me to advance the Kingdom of God and to see His glory spread over the earth.
