ROMANIA DISCOVER
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.
Strategy
We are currently serving the people of Romania with the following initiatives.
Church Planting
We are establishing local churches all over Romania that are reproducing at an exponential rate. You can play a role in a global church planting movement by reaching those who would otherwise never hear the Gospel. Imagine generations of new believers making Christ first in their lives because you answered the call to go.

All around us are people that the Bible calls “lost” — those living (and dying) far from God. Many of them are in far away places where there are few, if any, followers of Jesus; however, many also live in our local communities. Current research shows that about 2/3 of our friends, family, and neighbors wouldn’t come to church even if invited. Whether near or far, lost people are on God’s heart — and, by God’s grace, we’ve been given a part in His plan to reach them.
We desire that everyone in our community, and beyond, has an authentic invitation to hear about Jesus and become His disciple. In churches, we see believers who have a desire to share about Jesus with others who still need to be equipped and empowered to do so. We believe that people currently far from God can become disciples who will disciple others. Disciples who make disciples, over and over across multiple spiritual generations, is the Biblical solution for our lost world.
That’s why we’re excited about “No Place Left,” a global network we’ve been working with locally since 2021. Inspired by Paul’s words in Romans 15:8-24, we’re trusting God that one day there will literally be no place left in our community, our state, and our world where the name of Jesus hasn’t been heard.
There are no updates at this time.
