Ministry Partnership
My name is Justin Owens and I am a newly approved Missionary Candidate to the nation of Estonia. Estonia is located in northeastern Europe just south of Finland and just west of Russia. We are in the ministry partnership building phase and are looking to begin building our network of partners. Let me share a little about Estonia and the vision God has given us.
Estonia has not had a great past. For many years they were controlled by many different countries. As a nation, there have only been two times of freedom in the past 750 years. Typical Estonians are very skeptical about any institutional religion or church and view it as another type of control. Estonia is less than 2% Christian and is classified as an unreached people group.
For Estonia, God has given us the mission to help Estonians find their way to Jesus and the vision to PLANT:
To turn Estonia upside down through:
• Partnering with Estonian nationals
• Leading people to faith in Christ
• Assembling new small discipleship groups
• Networking the groups into simple churches
• Training disciples to reproduce the ministry
"These men who have turned the world upside down have come here also." – Acts 17:6b
Our motivation for the vision is to reach those who would not go to an institutional church and to bring the church to them. Estonia is roughly 70% non-religious and in need of new church communities. Our idea of success is when we have helped Estonians find their way to Jesus who are now making disciples themselves. That is the command of Jesus. Having disciplemaking disciplemakers will ensure that reproduction will continue.
Our appeal to you is to join us in this ministry. Join us helping Estonians find their way to Jesus. Join us in turning Estonia upside down. Join us in becoming our strategic partner through prayer and financial giving. In order for us to be fully funded and able to carry out the mission and vision God has given us, we need the following commitments:
10 support partners at $50/mo.
10 support partners at $100/mo.
10 support partners at $150/mo.
Please prayerfully consider partnering with us in the ministry. As a partner, we would keep you up to date with what is going on in the ministry in Estonia through newsletters and blog updates, offering you a more in depth look inside ministry in Estonia. By partnering with us, you too will have the chance to help Estonians find their way to Jesus.
If you would like to fulfill one or more of these financial needs, please email me at missionestonia@gmail.com so that I can add you to my partner network. Then, you can send a check to the missions office of the Baptist Missionary Association of America with "Mission:Estonia" or "Justin Owens Mission Work" in the memo line of the check. The BMAA address is:
Baptist Missionary Association of America - Missions Office
P.O. Box 878
Conway, AR 72033
Soon I will have the ability to have you remit your donation to the missions office via the Donate Now button on the right.
Thank you in advance for your support and I look forward to partnering with you in the ministry to Estonia! God bless!
