Do you feel God’s call to missions for the people of Russia? Have you been to Ryazan, Russia in the past and feel led to renew friendships there?
Since 2001, churches from the West Virginia Baptist Convention have sent teams to the churches of the Ryazan Baptist Union to partner together in a variety of ministries. They include evangelism of children, construction and renovation of facilities, economic development, and leadership training. As a result, mutually inspiring relationships have been built that last for a lifetime.
The material and financial resources of the Russian Baptist churches are small, but their love for Jesus and one another is great. They possess a determined focus to make a difference for Christ with whatever means are available to them. And they ARE making a difference.
My wife Jeannie and I will be leading a group trip to Ryazan, Russia, February 24 to March 5, 2016. Ministry plans include working alongside Central Church in their rehabilitation center. We’ll also be joining Resurrection Church in their outreach to a nearby Gypsy camp.
Will you join us?
