Other Churches in Bryansk
There are many Churches scattered through0ut both the city of Bryansk as well as the region of Bryansk… small house churches, many middle sized 30 to 50 member churches, and even a few larger churches over 200 people and some with even large buildings. Our prayer is that the Church Health Plan over the course of the next few years will include many of these. We pray that all existing churches will grow healthy, so that they may mulitply!
Learn about some of these cities…
Selso, Russia
Seltso is about 25 miles west of the city of Bryansk. A smaller town of about 35,000 residents with one protestant church; the local Seltso Baptist Church. It is fortunate enough to have a wonderful building put constructed in the 1990′s following the fall of communism. There are 200+ people in this church, but still thousands upon thousands of its citizens who are detached from church and a great lack of understanding of what a relationship with Christ can be about.
see a short video about Seltso…
In the 1990′s I was privileged to be part of a group that was with the folks in the Seltso church, helping them with building, evangelizing in the public park, distributing materials, speaking at the youth camp, and preaching in the worship service. The Lord was surely working with this church and these people. They learned about teaching the youth, an activity that was illegal during the Soviet days. Their love for the Lord was evident through their worship, their hospitality, and their love for one another. Although I have not kept in contact with them, they are often in my prayers that the Lord will use them to reach their city and region. To God be the glory.
