We tell stories to celebrate God’s work through His people and their generosity and to inspire more people to engage in the Great Commission.

Global Worker Intro – Martinez Family: The Martinez family is preparing to move to Szczecin, Poland and serve under the 15:5 West Initiative. Lemuel and Brittany are kind, fun, and godly people who we have loved to getting to know. We believe God will use them in an incredible way in Szczecin.

Global Worker Intro – Adkins Family: We were able to meet Seth and Michelle Adkins while they were in Estonia for their vision trip. This sweet family will be joining the Nordic-Baltic Initiative and focusing on reaching unreached villages of South Estonia with the gospel.

The Refuge: The Refuge outreach center is a place for the youth of Tartu to connect, learn, and hear the gospel. It was started by Beth Ann, a former Converge global worker, and it continues under the leadership of Piia, a young Estonian woman who has been with the ministry from the beginning.

15:5 West Initiative Overview: We are asking God for a gospel movement among the 15 largest cities in the countries of Poland, Czech Republic and Slovakia that will also plant gospel communities in at least 5 unreached villages around each of these cities.

Crisis in Ukraine and the Church’s response: Learn how missionaries and ministry leaders in the US, Poland, Moldova, and Estonia are responding to the needs of refugees in their communities. Beyond meeting the physical and immediate needs of these families, ministry leaders are providing spiritual and emotional care and seeking to represent the love, grace, and reconciliation that can only be found in Christ.

Stepping into international ministry: Dennis and Amanda make a challenging step of faith as they leave their successful careers in church leadership and education to lead missionaries in the Europe and Mediterranean Region – 7 years apart.



A family transformed in the Middle East: A church’s camp outreach leads to a vision to reach every south Estonian village with the Gospel.

What are Albanian moms up to? Nita’s work with Mothers of Preschoolers (MOPS) in Albania continues through the COVID lockdown.



A Middle Eastern church moves online: A church steps out in faith to continue to reach people with the gospel, even while in person connection is not possible.
Oh give thanks to the Lord; call upon his name;
1 Chronicles 16:8
make known his deeds among the peoples!
Sing to him, sing praises to him;
tell of all his wondrous works!
