Mission Summary – Moldova Visit 2025

In late October, we – Peter, Chela, Pippa, and myself - had the privilege of traveling to Moldova with Victor, and welcoming the team from Liberec, Czechia, on their very first visit. This was a time of deep encouragement and fruitful ministry, made possible by the incredible provision of the new minibus—a true blessing that allowed us to carry both people and aid safely and effectively.

Key Highlights

·       New Minibus: Already proving to be a huge gift, enabling us to transport aid and teams with ease.

·       Aid Distribution: Clothes, blankets, toiletries, and reading glasses were delivered, meeting practical and urgent needs.

·       Prison Ministry: A powerful time preaching to 80 women, with a growing group of Christians there who are hungry for the Word.

·       Care Home Outreach: Shared clothing and essentials with elderly residents, bringing dignity and comfort.

·       Family Visits: Reached poor, disabled, elderly, and isolated families with compassion and practical support.

·       Children’s Ministry: Joyful kids’ club gatherings full of life and hope.

·       Church Celebration: A vibrant time of worship and fellowship, rejoicing together in God’s goodness.

Reflections & Prayer

We are hugely blessed and thankful for all that God has done through this visit. The generosity of gifts and donations has been a tangible expression of His love. The minibus has already transformed the way we serve, opening doors for greater impact.

Please continue to pray:

·       For the women in prison and the growing Christian fellowship there.

·       For the elderly, disabled, and isolated families we visited.

·       For the children reached through the kids’ club.

·       For ongoing strength, wisdom, and provision for the ministry teams in Moldova and Czechia.

We give thanks for the amazing gifts from God and the privilege of serving together in unity.
