Turkey — The Gospel for Istanbul

On March 22 and 23, 2025, by God's grace, a missionary team from Moldova held an evangelistic outreach in Istanbul. This city, connecting East and West, became a place where the Word of God was proclaimed in both Russian and Turkish. People who had previously been far...

Turkey – Baptism in the Church

On March 17, 2024, through the prayers of believers, a new church, “Alpha and Omega,” was established in one of the historic districts of Istanbul. Regular services have begun, with the primary goal of witnessing about Christ.

During the summer, a missionary team organized evangelistic gatherings, which drew a full house of attendees eager to hear Christian music and learn more about Christ.

Lebanon – Open to Christ

In the Middle East, especially in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, and Turkey, people’s attitudes toward the Gospel have changed over the past decades. This became particularly noticeable after the civil wars in Syria and Iraq. Hundreds of thousands of people fled their homes, becoming refugees in other countries

Children’s Camp in Lebanon!

In early May 2023, we started conducting children’s camps in the city of Tyre. Youth from the USA and Germany came to help. Brothers worked with the boys, and sisters worked with the girls. Every morning, they welcomed the arriving children who eagerly participated in all the activities.

Lebanon – children and refugees!

For over 10 years, we have been serving in the Middle East in Lebanon in the city of Tyre. At the moment, our eldest son Vyacheslav, his wife, and their three children have moved for long-term service in Tyre. The main goal of this ministry is the evangelization of the population with the subsequent opening of churches.

House of Prayer in Bulgaria!

In Bulgaria, in the town of Gotse Delchev, the need for a house of prayer is very great. The lack of finances did not allow construction to begin. To strengthen and encourage the young church, we gathered at the site where we planned the building and called on everyone to put their trust in the Lord.

Gospel to the Turkish people

ocal authorities did not issue permission to hold services this year in open, public places. Istanbul, together with the suburbs, has more than twenty-five million people. In recent years, there has been an interest in Christianity among the younger generation.

Bulgaria – house of prayer!

Dear friends, we continue our ministry in the southern part of Bulgaria, in the town of Gotse Delchev. Among the Turkish diaspora, a church was planted among ethnic Turks. The building that we rent, cannot accommodate everyone who wants to attend the service.

Antalya – The good news!

Currently, the population of Turkey is over 75 million and they all need salvation. In 2020 many ministers were deported, and young churches were left without mentors. Services in Antalya were held under God’s protection, people filled the halls and listened to the Gospel.

Jesus Christ for Tanzania!

The struggle for survival is ubiquitous in Africa. Depending on the regions, people differ greatly: they can be friendly and good-natured, but in some places, they are very fierce and aggressive, and it is not safe to walk without guards. A significant part of the tribe’s worship pagan gods and follow traditional African religions.

Serving in the Middle East

The Kirnev family consists out of 9 person and their origins are in the south of Moldova. The head of the family, father Serghey Kirnev, is also the conductor of the ensemble “Kirnev”. He committed his life to God since he was 14.  God called Serghey and his family to serve Him. Serghey organizes Evangelism ministries in many countries and his family supports him in this mission.

Lebanon – Gospel to refugees

What can we do? There is a riot in Lebanon, and all services are already planned. Local people are used to the unrest in the streets and are calm about it. But we were worried, afraid to put our lives in danger, but it was unacceptable for us to refuse to serve; the Lebanese would not understand us.
