Location: Slovakia, Eurasia
Ministry Focus: Steve serves as the Regional Director for PAOC International Missions in Eurasia. He oversees and empowers 60 amazing PAOC Global Workers engaged in “extending the Kingdom and serving the peoples” in 15 nations from Siberia to Spain, England to Israel.
Steve’s passion is developing a healthy and effective team of leaders, churches and colleges to see revival come to Eurasia. Patti focuses on fighting for social justice in the region, organizing humanitarian aid, and caring for Global Workers, national partners, and women in ministry. With an area spanning twelve time zones and a population of 742 million… including millions of Muslims, Jews, atheists and nominal Christians… reaching Eurasia is a big job… and they would love your help!
Acts 16:10 “We went to work at once getting things ready. All the pieces had come together. We knew now for sure that God had called us to preach the good news to the Europeans.” (The Message)
