Alabama, Ukraine Baptists partner to share Christ [ al.com] In November 2005, Alabama Baptists voted to partner with Ukrainian Baptists to spread the gospel.
This January, leaders signed documents formalizing the partnership. Before the ink was dry on the partnership agreement, plans were already underway for teams to go to Ukraine.
"The overarching goal of the partnership is to take the message of Jesus to those who have not heard. We are trying to mobilize Alabamians to go and engage in Intentional Evangelism," said Reggie Quimby, director of the office of global partnerships and volunteers in missions for the Alabama Baptist State Board of Missions (SBOM). I will be willing to bet that "those who have not heard it" include UC's and UO.

Once again I say, ...and the MP worries about Catholic proselytization? I know of at least a couple of Evangelical groups in my area that actively send "missionaries" to "convert Russia."

That is what happens when a Church that used to be one splits into 4 sections and can not get along.

Bretheren Protestants and AOG's from my little town on the shores of the Southern Ocean send it's Missionaries to the former Soviet republics in central asia and have made converts there. So they had better wake up over there and realise they need to lift their game.

Evangelicals have been going into Eastern Europe since the USSR collapsed, they've hardly had the impact they'd hoped for. What concerns me more is the methods often employed, such as implied promises of work visas that they of course have no authority to deliver. Our Orthodox brothers and sisters in Russia and the former USSR need real help and real hope.
