  • Join us in thanking God for the strong Baptist leadership within Bulgaria and their faithfulness even when faced with persecution. Join us in thanking God for the strong Baptist leadership within Bulgaria and their faithfulness even when faced with persecution.
  • Join us in celebrating the following praise and lifting up the prayer requests from Union President Teodor Oprenov.
    • For the past few months, we have been reaping the fruit of many years of training and investment in leaders. Since December 2023, there have been seven new pastors ordained in various Bulgarian Baptist churches. Two more applications were approved, and others are in the making for future ordinations. This is truly encouraging, and we praise the Lord for His faithfulness. In a day and time when it is becoming less popular for young people to dive into pastoral ministry, this development is like a breath of fresh air and we believe it is only the beginning.

Prayer Requests

  • Join us in prayer for the Baptist churches in Bulgaria and their members as they share Gospel witness and seek to serve their communities.
  • Our nation is going through a period of political turmoil and economic insecurity. This is coupled by a lack of spiritual orientation and withdrawal from Christian values. Please support us in prayer that the Church will stand up to those challenges and will make Christ known through Gospel-sharing, neighbor-loving, Bible-based and Spirit-led initiatives.

    Please pray specifically that more teenagers, young adults, and young families would commit to following Jesus, studying His Word, and discipling their peers to do the same. Please pray for new leaders who would respond to the call and step into ministry.
