OUR STORY
ORIGIN
In 2001, God opened the door for us to the Yamal Peninsula, which means “the ends of the earth”. Together with local churches, in summer and winter, we conducted day camps telling children about Christ and His love for them. Evangelism on Yamal continued year after year. The message of salvation, once heard, transformed the lives of many children and adults. After the end of the summer camps, the children continued getting to know Jesus Christ at Sunday school and at Bible studies in the church. As some of them got older, they dedicated their lives to the service of the Lord.
The local churches, though small, are an integral part of this work. In the village of Urengoy, Pastor Alexander P. and his family have been faithfully serving for 14 years. With the arrival of a young family of Vlad and Lisa, the work with youth and children is gaining new momentum. Today, the local church has enough experience and passionate volunteers to conduct such events on their own. Christmas holidays 2018-2019 were a great blessing. About fifty children came to the church and participated in the day camps. Today, the team is actively preparing for the summer season camps and evangelism. God blesses this church abundantly, although they still need financial and prayer support for the children and youth camps.
GROWTH
Starting from 2017, our team was invited to Moldova and then to the Rostov region. Local small churches and individual missionaries are not able to conduct large-scale children camps. Our experience and financial capabilities help local ministers reach many children and their parents.
