Meet Dina and Ima

Dina and Ima are our Russian churchplanters. They are our key people in Ryazan. We will be working with them to help start a new church that will grow and multiply after we're gone.

Please pray for Dina and Ima. Pray that God would give them wisdom and strength, that God would protect them and that he would give them the vision for creating a movement of healthy reproducing churches to reach their area.

Who is e3?

e3 partners is a world missions organization that focuses on fulfilling the Great Commission through church multiplication.

Jesus said "Go into all the world and make disciples, baptizing them... and teaching them to obey..." (Matt. 28:18-20). e3 seeks to accomplish this by multiplying churches through it's three fold mission to Equip, Evangelize, and Establish.

e3 Equips people like you and me to share the gospel, to make disciples and to train others to do the same. Then through short-term mission trips we join with national workers in another country to help them Evangelize their region and make disciples.

Then we seek to firmly Establish the work by bringing those people together into a new church, with the goal that the new church will multiply and start other new churchs in the months to follow.

The national workers are really the key to making a lasting impact in the region. Much of what we do is for the purpose of training them and equiping them to share the gospel, make disciples, and start new churches after we leave.

Where is Ryazan?

Ryazan Russia is about 120 miles south east of Moscow. We'll have a long flight and then a train ride to get there but it will be worth it. It is a city of around 500,000 people who have very little access to the gospel message.

The goal is to establish healthy, multiplying churches that will reach this region long after we're gone.
