Armenia & Georgia

Please pray for two of the church planters we support; Vova Sofiyan in Artashat, Armenia and Sasoon Margaryan in Akhaltsikhe, Georgia.  Vova teaches Bible studies and preaches at Russian worship services.  Sasoon serves Armenians living in Georgia and reaches out to his local Georgian, Turkish, and Jewish neighbors

Our Grace Church staff have taught several times at the Theological Seminary of Armenia. We also sponsor annual pastors’ conferences in Armenia.  This coming week (April 6-15), Pastor Ray Glinski has another opportunity to serve in Armenia. This will be his 30th visit since 2001. Please pray as he preaches at Central Baptist Church on Palm Sunday, and will be teaching the following week at the Theological Seminary of Armenia, covering the Doctrine of the Bible.

Pray this week:

  • For both Vova and Sasoon's ministries
    • Family
    • Church
    • Community
  • Pray for their faith in God.  Pray for these brothers that God would equip them to fulfill their ministry.  Pray what we've been going through in 2 Timothy, that they would "preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. . . . always be sober-minded, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill [their] ministry" (2 Timothy 4:2-5).
  • Pray for Ray as he preaches there on April 9th and teaches that week at the Theological Seminary of Armenia
