General Strategy
General Strategy: Our vision is that of the local church – to continue to train leaders among the nationals, some to minister within the many existing churches and some to establish new reproducing churches. The team needs more members for friendship evangelism, children’s and youth ministries, discipleship and Bible teaching.
Type of Ministry
Ministry Type: In a culture hardened by communism, superstition and economic hardship, CrossWorld missionaries have planted a growing church and established a training center. Missionaries have concentrated in the northeast city of Iasi, near the border with Moldova. The Bethlehem Bible Training Center prepares students for church planting in their own culture with churches planted by staff, students and graduates.
