“For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes…” Romans 1:16

Everything in this world is thought out by the Perfect Creator. In 1982, God revealed Himself to me (Eli) as a personal Savior. Later, in 1983, I dedicated my life to the Lord for service. The Lord wanted full dedication and service. He formed us and prepared us for something important.

In 1989, we moved from Ukraine to the United States for permanent residence, but the Lord continued working in us and called us to serve as evangelist-missionary. Since 2000 I have been making short missionary trips to Siberia for 7 years. Then Mexico, but the Lord was preparing me for ministry in Europe.

In 2010 I flew to Italy for the first time and saw a great need for evangelism, short trips to Italy and church formations in Naples began…

In 2012, we heard God's calling, and the whole family, my wife Svetlana, daughter Linet, and daughter Alethea, and I moved for a long-term mission to open new Slavic churches in Italy.

God, rich in mercy and love, blessed our work and by His will, 7 churches were opened in Italy. We also helped in opening new churches in Spain, Germany, France, and other European countries.

We are currently serving in "The Word of Life" church in Rome. Our daughter Alethea (Ally) helps a lot in musical ministry, with children and youth.
