Moldova is a country of opposites. Like many developing countries, there are the haves and the have nots. But it’s not about what you have for me in being there, but more so a way of defining pursuits. There are many pursuits here. Some pursue a future dream that someday may be the new Moldova. Some pursue basic provision in  working odd jobs and selling wares in the open air market. Still others pursue attempts to numb the pain of the greyness of life in a country that’s been put on pause.

Still, Moldova is a country poised for change. The lives of its people have a destiny many do not realize. We are here for destiny. The destination of others, more importantly, the final destination. Many think they have it wrapped in identity with a building or a family heritage. But others are beginning to realize destiny in an entirely new light.

For one hundred believers in Anenii Noi, their destiny is above. Their hope is to spread the love of Jesus in many ways. Through one on one conversations, through the delivery of food bags, through creative outreaches, women’s conferences, teen programs, and the hope of even more, Filadelfia Baptist Church is leading the way in spreading the gospel to this community. Pray for them. Pray for our team and another team with us from Gainesville, Georgia that God would do amazing things here.
