Helb’s primary mission is to serve the Slavic immigrants in Portugal. Many people are leaving Ukraine and Belarus ( because of the political situation) and looking for a stable place to settle. Hleb leads a weekly Bible study with these folks along with helping them get resettled in a foreign land. Hleb and Sasha grew up in Belarus and were involved in ministry there before they felt the need to leave the country because of the deteriorating freedom under the current dictator. In addition, Hleb is fluent in several languages (including English) and uses that gift to translate for services at the International Evangelical Church in Algarve and a number of other ministry settings.
- Pray for the start of a weekly worship service for the Slavic community.
