Ministry Report – Evangelism, Community Impact & Church Growth
Hallelujah, praise the Lord!
We are at the threshold of a new year. We look ahead to celebrating Christmas here in North Macedonia on January 7, 2026. Our hearts are full of gratitude. While many of you celebrated Christmas in December 2025, we are united in the same spirit, with the same wish and the same prayer:
That our Lord Jesus Christ would be glorified and lifted up in all our ways and in everything we do.
To God be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
Evangelism and Mission in 2025
The year 2025 was a year of movement, faith, and persistence. The Lord opened many doors for evangelism, and by His grace, we walked through them.
Jesus’s words in Mark 1:38–39 inspired us. He declares that He must go and preach the Gospel to the nearby towns because that is why He came. Motivated by this message, our team and partner churches pressed forward with renewed strength. Throughout the year, we:
- Visited and ministered in 86 towns, cities, and villages,
- Reached many communities with first‑time Gospel outreaches,
- Continued with regular street evangelism, village preaching, and city campaigns.
In many of these places, the name of Jesus had rarely—or never—been proclaimed publicly. What a privilege to carry the Good News where spiritual darkness has ruled for generations.
The Word of God in People’s Hands
One of the greatest joys this year has been seeing the Word of God physically placed into people’s hands.
Through your prayers and support, 2025 became one of our strongest years in Bible and literature distribution:
- Around 800 full Bibles shared,
- Around 7,000 New Testaments were given out,
- About 40,000 Gospel tracts were sown like seed across North Macedonia.
Every Bible, every New Testament, and every tract is more than a number. It is an invitation for someone to hear God speak to them personally through His Word.
Salvations – The Lord of the Harvest
Over the last few years, we have prayed and believed God for a growing harvest of souls:
- In 2022–2023, we prayed for 1,000 salvation and saw around 500+ people respond.
- In 2024, we came close to that original goal with approximately 890 salvations.
- In 2025, with the same faith and commitment, we recorded 451 people who made a decision to follow Christ.
We thank God for every single life touched. At the same time, our focus remains not only on decisions but on discipleship, transformation, and long‑term fruit. We are dedicated to preaching Christ crucified and risen. We also strive to walk with people as they grow into mature followers of Jesus.
Community Development & Humanitarian Impact
The Gospel is not only heard—it is also seen. In 2025, the Lord allowed us to show His love in practical ways through several key projects.
SEEDS Project – Learning to Feed Themselves
The SEEDS Project remained one of our most impactful initiatives. By distributing seeds and teaching basic cultivation, we encouraged families to grow their own food and regain dignity and independence.
- Seeds were distributed in multiple communities.
- Families are now producing food for their own tables.
- Many shared powerful testimonies of how this simple act changed their daily lives.
As we often say, “Now they can learn to feed themselves.” This is not only about vegetables; it is about hope, responsibility, and a future.
WATER Project – From Gift to Ownership
In previous years, two large villages received completed water projects. In 2025, the emphasis shifted from construction to maintenance, stewardship, and local ownership.
The principle we kept before the communities was simple but important:
“If they don’t own it, they won’t maintain it.”
We help people take responsibility for the water systems. This builds something that can last for years beyond our direct involvement.
Humanitarian Outreach – Serving “the Least of These”
Guided by Matthew 25:36—“I was naked and you clothed Me”—we continued to serve those who are so often forgotten:
- The poor
- The needy
- The abandoned
- Those society overlooks
We distributed clothing and other basic necessities. This included around 15 tons of used clothes shared in 2025. Through these actions, we sought to make the love of Christ visible and tangible. Whenever we preach Jesus, we also aim to address physical needs. This approach ensures that people can feel His compassion, not just hear about it.
Investing in the Next Generation
One of the greatest privileges and challenges we face is raising up future leaders. These leaders will carry the Gospel further than we ever could.
In 2025:
- 15 boys and girls were actively being trained and disciples,
- At least 2 of them clearly expressed a calling toward pastoral and church leadership.
In a nation where the evangelical witness is still small, this investment in the next generation is crucial. These young people are the future pastors, evangelists, worship leaders, and missionaries. They will stand for Christ in the years to come.
Highlights from 2025 – A Snapshot
Behind every number there is a face, a home, and a story. Here is a brief snapshot of what the Lord did through the ministry this year:
- 800 full Bibles distributed
- 7,000 New Testaments
- 40,000 Gospel tracts
- 21 water baptisms
- Around 15 tons of used clothes given to those in need
- 451 recorded salvations

- A one‑week summer camp for 50 children
- A one‑day women’s conference with 130 women attending
- An Easter convocation with 500+ people
- A new house church started in Trebotiviste
Every line here represents God’s grace at work in real places and real lives.
Gratitude and Looking Ahead
From the depth of our hearts, we want to say thank you to all of you. This includes partners, intercessors, supporters, and friends who have stood with us in 2025.
Your prayers, encouragement, and generosity made it possible for us to:
- Preach the Gospel in new locations,
- Place the Bible into thousands of hands,
- Serve the poor and forgotten,
- Train young leaders,
- And see new believers baptized and gathered into fellowship.
Our prayer is that the Lord Jesus Christ will always keep His rightful place of adoration and centrality in everything we do. May our worship, our preaching, our serving, and our giving all point to Him alone.
Serving Him together,
Brother Jimmy and the team.
