Moldova!
Moldova flight booked, ready for our 8 days of mission and 2 days of travel.
We expect the mission week to be varied, chaotic and full of surprises as it has been on previous visits. This time the team will be in the North of the
country where we will preach in Russian speaking Churches on the Sunday’s and then in homes throughout the week. We will have up to six home meetings per day, each lasting about two hours. Please pray for our preparation, both of ourselves and the messages we will preach.
Bob Telford (Warwickshire) and David Brown (West Midlands) from Counties and Mike Wyatt (Leamington Spa) will also be on the team.
Our remit is to help people come to faith in Jesus Christ through gospel preaching with the local Pastors following up on responses.
