BEN Module 3 

This is my second participation in Macedonia Balkans and it is an honour for me. I am delighted to have participated in the group. I feel proud, I have had the opportunity to meet people with whom we have been able to share our problems and pray together for them, praise, learn and I see that God is still speaking. Thank you to the organisation and for me it has been an honour and a blessing. Thank you
(Mussa, Bulgaria.)

 By God’s grace, we were able to enjoy a very special time together working through Module 3: The Evangelist and Communication.
 
It was a true privilege to have evangelists joining us from Bulgaria, Croatia, Macedonia, Slovenia, and Turkey. Different countries, languages, and contexts — yet all united in proclaiming the same message and serving the same Lord: Jesus. It was a weekend full of encouragement and renewal to keep sharing the Good News wherever God has placed us.
 
The training was rich with meaningful experiences. Participants prepared and delivered their evangelistic messages, and we also had a special outreach trip to Veles, where we shared the Gospel publicly. We sang praises, shared testimonies and conversations, and called people to repentance. With great joy, we can say that several people accepted Jesus as their Savior that day. Truly, there was rejoicing in heaven!
 
We were also honored to welcome Kelvin Stribblehill, International Director of The Charge Evangelistic Mission, as our guest teacher. His ministry works across the globe, equipping believers to reach others through campaigns, crusades, training events, and church planting initiatives. We thank God for his effort and for sharing his passion for the Gospel and his heart for the lost. We pray the Lord continues to use him powerfully in the mission.
 
We are very grateful for this new opportunity to gather, and we look forward with joy to our next training together.
 
With love in Christ.

BEN Module 2 

“The first weekend was amazing. It was transformative for our church. When I spoke to the Deacons about coming to Module 2 they urged me to go and bring something back to them again! I am going home carrying something with me!” 
(Goran, Slovenia)

November 2024... and Module 2 of the recently launched Balkans Evangelists Network took place in North Macedonia. 26 young evangelists gathered from Bulgaria, Croatia, North Macedonia, Slovenia, and Turkey. With some great input from our guest speaker from Bosnia, Slavko Hadzic, we explored together ’The Evangelist and Context’… looking at how we engage Balkan culture with the relevancy of the Gospel today. It was a stirring weekend, which, we trust, raised the expectancy of all involved. God is able to do far more than we can ask or imagine (Ephesians 3:20). Please pray for these evangelists as they seek to be faithful to His call in these days

BEN Module 1 

This is the first training of this sort to happen in the Balkans in living memory 
(Dardajan, Core team)

Praise the Lord! We had a beautiful and fruitful time together 
(Mitko, BEN participant, Bulgaria)

April 2024 saw the launch of the Balkans Evangelist Network (BEN) as 24 young evangelists gathered together in North Macedonia to explore the theme ‘The Call of the Evangelist’. Coming from Bulgaria, North Macedonia, Slovenia and Turkey, it was an excellent weekend of teaching, envisioning and stirring up the gift of the evangelist. With sharp input from keynote speaker Roger Carswell, plus others, there was heightened expectation as participants returned to their homes.
