Greetings in the Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
I am grateful and excited to share this Eurasia Special Ministry Report with you. In late April 2024, I had the privilege of joining Reach A Village’s national leaders at a regional conference in Sofia, Bulgaria. Without a doubt, God is working mightily in this part of the world. As I listened to so many incredible testimonies, I knew God wanted me to share this update with you.
Most of Reach A Village’s ministries in Eurasia were established in the 1990s and up to the year 2000 with the help of Waldemar Kurz, our Eurasia Regional Director who retired in 2022. While I was in Bulgaria, I met Nikolay and Denitza Ivanov (left), a husband and wife ministry team, who oversee ministry and outreach in the region now.
As you review the report, I believe you will be thrilled to see how our ministry partners at working around the region. For example, you will learn about:
-Outreach in Polish prisons
-Reaching remote, unreached communities in the Arctic
-Ministering to nomads in Mongolia
-How a young man named Islam came to Christ in Albania and more!
Please join us in prayer for Reach A Village’s ministry partners in Eurasia. Our brothers and sisters are incredibly faithful, passionate and committed. I thank God for them as I thank God for you. Together, we are part of a powerful ministry that is impacting lives today, tomorrow and for all eternity. To God be all praise, honor and glory!
In His Mighty Name,
