Ministering in a traditional culture where Protestants generally are not viewed positively.
Many church members have moved to Western European countries where wages are higher. These transitions weaken local churches.
Prayer requests
Pray for our established Nazarene churches in Romania, as they continue to minister in their local communities.
Pray for our national pastors, their families, and our mission team members, as they disciple new leaders, plant churches, and share Christ with passion and conviction.
Ask the Lord to provide strength and resources to compassionate ministry workers serving marginalized groups: survivors of human trafficking, neglected children, those with special needs, the elderly, and the poor.
Opportunities
Church planting opportunity in the city of Brasov.
Potential to partner with other Wesleyan groups in Romania.
In just over a year, 5 Romanians are scheduled to complete the educational requirements for ordination.
Compassionate Ministries
Compassionate ministry projects include partnerships with educational and social work to children, small businesses providing jobs, partnership with ministry to trafficking survivors.
