Remember the Children Office
It's Church Planting Season

Remember the Children recently hosted four Romanian couples at the Exponential Global Conference (EGC) in Orlando, Florida.

Exponential Global is the premier conference in the US totally focused on the topic of church planting. Experiences like this are unique for our Romanian friends as they do not have access to this kind of development and training in their homeland.

Planting a church can be long, slow and discouraging at times. It is opportunities like this, thanks to your generosity, that encourage, inspire and refresh our team members for their next season of ministry. By investing in them, you are ultimately investing in the lives of the orphan children, refugees and communities they serve.

2025 Leadership Training Initiative

We believe in the power of local leaders – and so in 2025 we are prioritizing leadership development for our ministry partners in these two ways: 

1) Church Planting: RTC is providing scholarships to future church planters to attend one of two Exponential Conferences – in Orlando or Berlin. Training like this is key to the success of new churches by providing access to invaluable insights, strategies, and networks. We are praying for God to use this opportunity to inspire our Romanian partners to know how to do this important work.

Come with Us

As we enter 2025, I am excited that our connection with people participating in short term service will be increasing. In April we have two teams going to serve, one with Agape Church and the other with the Eastern European Bible College.  This summer, in partnership with CMF International, we will be hosting six summer interns for mission service.  We also anticipate summer mission teams from Azusa-Pacific University and Northside Christian Church, Yorktown, Virginia. Our annual Christmas trip is already taking reservations, and we would welcome you to bring a group from your community to serve with us. 

Mission service can be transformative in your life, and the lives of those you serve. We invite you to come with us…

Visiting Hospitals in Ukraine

The war in Ukraine continues to fill the country with conflict and violence. As we continue in prayer for our friends and neighbors to Romania, we also continue to send support. One of our main partnerships has been through our friend Jaco. This year, we have supported his ministry to amputees in Ukraine.

Coffee at the College

The coffee shop space is envisioned as a vibrant community hub that will not only will help in time support our mission financially (in time) but also serves as a welcoming space for meaningful engagement around God and the Christian faith. Through weekly events like music concerts, book discussions, Bible study sessions, debates, outreach events, we aim to create an inviting atmosphere for those curious about Christianity and God.

Saying Yes - RO Trip Update

Saying Yes - RO Trip Update

It's conference week in Romania! We currently have a team leading a women's conference at Impact Church in Oradea and next week a new team will come in to put on a leadership conference at the Bible college. Each team is taking time to connect with RTC churches and participate in outreach alongside longstanding partners. Mission teams bring an energy and encouragement that is a blessing for us and for many whom we serve.

The focus of this year's conference was specifically discipleship making as a foundation for the church. Remember the Children believes in the crucial role the church plays in communities, families, and the lives of children through the work of spreading the gospel and making disciples. Each one of our RTC churches have a focus on their neighbors and a conviction that Jesus is the source of all real and lasting transformation.

Double Enrollment in Tanzania

As we step into this new chapter, it brings me great joy to share the beginning of a fresh school year in Tanzania. Recalling our December 10th, 2023, Sunday Stories, we celebrated the conclusion of the second semester with 202 students. This semester, due to our now established reputation, we are thrilled to welcome 221 new students to our school, expanding our school family to a total of 423 students!

New Year as a Refugee

New Year is a time of hope and expectation, but for our Ukrainian friends it marks yet another year of war and praying to someday return to a peace filled homeland. There are still several refugees living at the East European Bible College through the support of RTC. EEBC reaches many more refugees in the Oradea region, offering supplies, education, and community. The Ukrainian community also utilizes the campus chapel for Sunday worship services.
