1201 W. 500 SouthThe Morrison’s served in Czechia for 20 years, where they worked in the areas of youth ministry, children’s ministry, leadership development, evangelism and church revitalization. They left behind numerous printed resources for pastors, curriculum for children and helped to develop training for new ministers. Their influence has helped several churches launch new campuses and send out Czech believers to unreached people groups abroad.
In the summer of 2020, they responded to a call to transfer to Serbia. God had already been speaking to them about coming change and service in new territory. After prayer and seeking God's will, they made the difficult yet exciting choice to relocate to Serbia.
The northern region of Vojvodina is one of the most ethnically and linguistically diverse territories in Europe with various communities being present for hundreds of years. Most people think of Serbia in the past as being characterized by war, unrest and division. However, today is a new day with many new beginnings on many levels. The Morrisons are currently working to learn language and culture as they assist the church. There have already been exciting opportunities through bringing hope to drug addicts, helping with local church revitalization and share the love of Christ through disaster/storm relief for small rural communities.
Prayer Requests
Pray for those who are trying to plant churches in smaller communities. Only 3 cities in Serbia are growing, so most of the church planting is in smaller towns in small group settings.
We are trying to raise money for bathrooms and a small office from among the people in the local church. We have only 2 toilet stalls, plus we need space for a 3rd kid ministry class. Pray for generosity and a spirit of giving.
Pray for the men who are currently seeking deliverance from addiction, that they will find strength in Christ and become pillars of faith for their families and their country.
In May 2023, we were able to recover a property for a ministry to drug addicts. It has grown from 5 to 16 men in the last 5 months. The building is in need of many repairs. (see list in Newsletters). We are looking for money for materials and work teams to help restore the building.
The church in Zrenjanin is a vibrant, growing church with 9 ethnicities and multiple generations attending both the main campus and their surrounding house churches. They are needing to renovate their current building as they wait for permits to do an expansion on their property. This project will help them with replacing their roof and other updates that are needed.
