Evangelistic church-planting campaign launches in Russia.

Russia-Slavic Gospel Association continues actively praying for the coalitions of churches who support the Antioch Initiative across Russia.The project is a biblically-structured, pro-active strategy which seeks to develop key regional impact churches capable of training, sending, and equipping in order to plant more churches.
The 1,600 churches of the Union of Evangelical Christians-Baptists constitute an average of only 18 churches per state. Their goal is to see a Bible-preaching church accessible to all of the 100,000 communities of Russia.How does it work? The UECB leadership identifies a church that meets the standards required for development as an Antioch church. Then SGA leadership helps to connect that church with a mission-minded group of North American churches that have a proven track record ministering in Russia with SGA.So far, 19 coalitions are now in place. SGA staff are praying for the Lord to raise up many more to help support the goal of 50 Antioch churches in Russia by the year 2010. Source:MNN
