Tim & Rachel in Tallin
In March 2012 we moved from St Petersburg in
Russia to Tallinn, the Capital of Estonia, to plant
another church. Estonia is one off the most
Godless nations in the world - and the least in
Europe.
you can read about on the blog. And just a
month after arriving, Tim preached at a church
here already, which will be followed up with three
more as he takes them through the book of Ruth
and shares some of the values of the Newfrontiers
church plant here in Tallinn.
As well as helping start a grace filled, God loving
church in the capital, Tallinn, we will also continue
to build relationships with others, and especially
some new church plants happening 'nearby' these are in Riga, which has been going about a
year already, and in Helsinki, which hasn't yet
started. And we will continue to be involved in St
Petersburg, travelling back often and continuing to
serve that city and see what God does in that
nation.
It's a very different situation we face compared to
the life in the UK or in Russia - where people at
least said they believed in some form of God even if it was nothing like the God of the Bible here people say they have no belief.
But there are some
churches in Tallinn and we've started to
build relationships with
a few as we look to
just learn what church
looks like in Estonia
and understand the
culture in Tallinn. We
arrive, again, as learners. God has been so
gracious and we've started meeting people
already - actually from the very first day here as
Tallinn is to be a church planting church - we aim
to be planting our first church after a few years
into another city in Estonia.
And for this we need a great team with us. We
praise God that we see this starting to come
together.
We are so grateful that we are not alone in this and that your church is praying for us, supporting
us as together we team to reach another nation
with the same message that we've been living in
the good of for so many years.
