PLANTING And Building NEW CHURCHES

The importance of church & community is a highlight in my ministry.

It is the very fact that the Word of God is being preached in churches that encourages me to keep planting. This preaching leads to transformation in people's minds. I concluded for myself that it is important not just to distribute humanitarian aid to the people, but it is important to teach about God's principles, how to get out of bondage mentally, spiritually and how to live a victorious life in Jesus Christ.

I believe that when a person's thinking is transformed, then his life is transformed. Church should be a place for encounters with Jesus and transformation of the mind by the Word of God.

Missionaries come and go, but what we can leave behind is a church and community  in which local pastors are serving their people, teaching God's Word, and worshiping Jesus.

This is my goal and vision -  to keep going to the most unreached places and to go where no one goes. To see people who love Jesus with the little they have and encourage them to keep going. To plant and build churches for those who want to share in community, values, growth, and learning. To partner with pastors, evangelists, churches, and others for a greater purpose.

Due to the partnership and help of different ministries and caring people, together we were able to plant and build 4 churches. We are believing for more in Jesus name!

The first church was established in the village of Kazuramimba in the year of 2015 with the support of local churches in Tanzania (Tanzania Assemblies of God), and the following ministries: Restoration of Hearts (leader Victor Koroteev), Flame of Fire (leader Andrey Shapoval), and Slavic Missionary Bible School (leader Bogdan Bondarenko).

The second church was planted in the village of Masimba in 2021 with the financial help of students from Slavic Missionary Bible School. The team and I held an official opening of the church in June and celebrated with the pastors, leaders, and church goers.

The third church was also opened with the help of students from Slavic Missionary Bible School. It was built in a small village called KWA-DOLI.

The fourth church was opened in the village of Desewa together with the Maasai Pastor and students of Baptism of Love missions experience.

The fifth church was opened in July in the village of Rusane

More is to come!
