On Mission in Stip, 2018
At the invitation of Oasis Church in Štip, K180 sent another team to Macedonia to serve in a long weekend of mission alongside Pastor Angel and the church family there. We led two evangelism training seminars in the church building, one on Friday and one on Saturday. After the session on Friday, we went to a local park and sought to reach people in the surrounding neighbourhood in one-on-one conversations, sharing the Gospel and inviting them to church. There were many who were willing to talk about spiritual things, even as it was getting dark. On Saturday morning, we took time to climb a large hill overlooking the city (on which stands a big metal cross) with some of the church members, to pray for Štip. After Saturday’s training, we again headed to the streets, going downtown by the river, where many (particularly young people) stopped to listen to testimony and the preaching of the Gospel. There were many conversations off the back of what the team shared. The church was encouraged by the people’s response. The team were able to minister during the Sunday morning service at Oasis, connecting again with many who had attended the training sessions and who had joined us on the streets. On Sunday afternoon, we were also able to visit the Oasis congregation in Kumanovo, which was a special time to encourage the small group of faithful believers there who are seeking to reach their community with the Gospel. |
"[It was] very encouraging to hear how much the people of Oasis Church enjoyed outreach and [see] how confident they were." Jenn, team member and K180 trainee "[One highlight for me was the] unity of the team with the local believers in both locations. There was a genuine joy in being together." Andrew, team member and K180 trustee |
On Mission in Štip & Veles, 2017
A team of 5 travelled to Štip and Veles in Macedonia, to work alongside two churches in proclaiming the gospel. It was a privilege to lead some training sessions in evangelism, before taking to the streets to bring Good News to those who happened to be around. There were many 'God encounters' and at least two people professing faith in Christ on the streets. Please take a moment to pray for these precious souls, that they would be nurtured in their new life in Christ. It was inspiring, and challenging, to see the church plant in Veles want to take the gospel on to the streets immediately after the Sunday morning service. We headed to a local park where many locals found themselves considering the things of God as the gospel was shared. Over the course of the whole weekend, it was thrilling to see some of the believers clearly passionate in their desire to make Jesus known. Please pray for the on-going witness in these two Macedonian towns.
