Slovakia

We are planting the church in a city that, by Slovak standards, is considered large, with 50,000 inhabitants, called Trenčín.

Therefore, I believe it is very necessary to have a church here with our theological convictions. At the moment, we are renting a building from the Adventists, and it would help us greatly if we had another building.

We are based in central Germany, about 30 minutes from Frankfurt and its airport. Rather than planting in Frankfurt—where there are many churches—we planted in the upper-left corner of Bavaria, an area that is largely unreached. In a region of more than 300,000 people, we estimate there are only about 500 believers and fewer than five evangelical churches, none located in the city center. Church attendance in general, whether Catholic or Protestant, is very low.

Despite this, the area is beautiful and filled with students and young families, many of whom live here while working in Frankfurt. Our congregation currently has about 50 committed members, many serving in leadership. We gather weekly in six house churches across the surrounding area, reaching people within a 35 km radius. Each house church is led by two trained male leaders, forming a team of twelve shepherds. We are encouraged by the growing potential and grateful to see our congregation increasingly reflect the community around us.

PRAY
That we would find a bigger space as we are reaching around 100 people at our services.
That we can plant another church in a rural area outside of town.
That we could support a full-time pastor rather than two part-time pastors.

GIVE
Towards supporting our pastor.
Towards planting another church in a rural context outside of town.
Towards purchasing a building for our church.

Cirkev bratská Trnava

Marek Tomašovič

Trnava, Slovakia

Languages Spoken: Slovak

We are based in Trnava, Slovakia—a regional city of 65,000 people nicknamed “Little Rome.” Not only does the city still have a strong Roman Catholic presence, but historically it also became a center of the Counter-Reformation in the 17th century. Today, our church is virtually the only evangelical church not only in Trnava but in the wider Trnava District (population 133,000). Multiple attempts to plant other churches in the city have failed, and even our church went through a number of “re-planting” moments. Our church was planted through fruitful youth evangelism, which also meant the age composition of the church plant was very young, and the vast majority of the church came from non-Christian families. These members, over time, grew, got married, and had children. Right now, the median age of adult members is 38, and most have 2–3 children, so our church is made up of adults and children in almost equal proportion. Children’s ministry (holistic, strategic, and long-term vision for the spiritual care and formation of our children) is one of the key challenges and opportunities ahead of us.

PRAY
That God would continue to develop leaders to step up as elders.
That our Christian School would continue to thrive and serve our community
That we would find partner churches who would mutually encourage and bless each other.

GIVE
Finances toward our internship program
Finances toward a children's ministry coordinator.
An English-speaking person to come as a teacher-missionary who would also live missionally.

Chiesa Biblica La Vite

Daniel Taut

San Vendemiano (TV) Italia

Languages Spoken: Italian

The Vine Biblical Church is located in San Vendemiano, a small town of 10,000 inhabitants, but we also border Conegliano, a city of about 35,000 inhabitants. The church context is not easy as the Venetian people are very proud and distrustful of foreigners. As a church, we have emerged in society through social activities, and this has brought much benefit. Our church is made up of different nationalities with different church and theological backgrounds, but the grace of God unites us and keeps us tied together.
PRAY
For us as we identify how to serve our city. We currently training at a local refugee camp.
For for new churches in our area.

GIVE
Towards our permanent location for our welding school that supports the refugee camp.
Toward various ministries we have built such as welding courses for refugees and evangelism and support in those camps.
