Our Work

Church Planting

Our main goal is to see a thriving Reformed church in Moldova’s capital city.
Planted in 2023, Chișinău Reformed Church is a young and growing community of believers who love the gospel, love people, and love the Reformed faith.

Discipleship and Outreach

We pursue intentional friendships with young believers to help them grow in their faith.

For outreach, we develop avenues where relationships with unbelievers can form and the gospel can be shared.

 

Teaching and Publishing

There is a great need for robust theological training and solid literature in our part of the world. As the Lord brings opportunities our way, we help with conferences, mentoring, and publishing projects.
