Greece
Greece, as a whole, has one of the lowest number and percentages of born-again believers in all of Europe, just 3 in 1,000 at the most. The people are religious by tradition and staunchly secular in practice. God has no active room in the hearts and lives of most Greeks. We are believing for 15 additional Spirit-filled missionaries to learn the Greek language and culture with the goal of partnering with and revitalizing existing churches and planting vibrant Christian communities of faith in five major cities of the country.

International church ministries in Athens (ICF Athens) and Thessaloniki (Zoe Church). The Athens church needs to move to and retrofit a new ministry location ($15,000), while the church in Thessaloniki is remodeling a large space for multi-faceted community engagement and ministry ($15,000). A small group of Greek and expat believers outside of Athens are meeting in homes while praying for a space to rent and remodel ($20,000).
