International Partner: Eastern Europe
FBCMel has partnered with Joy and Kerem since 2020. They oversee a ministry training program in Eastern Europe. They primarily reach Turkish-speaking individuals. We support them through prayer and financial giving.
Current Prayer Requests
(Last Updated August 13, 2026)
- Please pray for two ladies that visited the Turkish church in Batumi for the first time to choose to follow Jesus.
- Please pray our trip to Azerbaijan the end of August would be very fruitful as we meet with partners and Lutfu Kerem spends more time training the content creation team.
- Please continue to pray for our children and the other MKs, that not one of them would be lost but that they would all intimately know and follow our Good Shepherd.
- Kerem has recently started working with an additional separate social media ministry team currently focused on reaching Turkish people in Georgia and the Black Sea region of Turkey. This ministry is just getting started. Please pray for the Lord to bring the right people to help with this ministry and for it to be very fruitful.
