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.

"Lord, please help me share the gospel with others in the best way that I can." 

That was my daily prayer for over a year after becoming a believer.  I knew it was important to share the story of Christ but I felt inadequate to do so.  I simply asked God to help me.  His answer blessed me immeasurably more than I could have imagined

He immediately led me to join a mission team to Honduras where I learned how to share the gospel by translating for someone who did so and then by sharing directly.  Years later I don't only get to share the story of Christ through my ministry at e3 Partners, but I am also able to teach and enable others to share the gospel.  It doesn't stop there.  God uses this to start new churches that start new churches, and so it goes on, reaching people all over the world who are discipled by local believers through simple church planting.

Only God can take a simple prayer and convert it to world impact.  By His grace, I serve as the EVP of Hispanic Global Mobilization for e3 Partners, which enables the ministry to steward God's people by helping them find their place in God's unfolding story and maximize their impact.  My direct field ministry includes serving Hispanic churches and ministries in the US to help equip and mobilize Hispanic missionaries through e3 Partners to the US and to the Middle East.  I also have the privilege to lead a Texas Border Strategy that serves as a case study for church planting among people on the move.  Truly, Philippians 4:13 is evident in how God is at work!   "I can do all this through him who gives me strength." (NIV)
