Mission Links : Krasif Aid

Krasif Aid, Bulgaria

APC is financially supporting Brian & Chris who began mission work in 1989 as part of YWAM in Amsterdam working with vulnerable people in “Sin City.” Previously, Brian was a lawyer for 16 years. Back in the UK they headed the YWAM Family Ministry work for several years, before beginning involvement in Bulgaria in 1998. They were recruited by Saltmine Trust, in Dudley, to head up their Eastern Europe ministry in 2001. In late 2007 they began the formation of Krasif Aid. They are members of St. Thomas’ Church, which is Part of the Parish of Aldridge. They have an team of active volunteers, and Alan and Gillian Winser from APC regularly go out to Bulgaria with them. 

KRASIF is the Bulgarian word for Beautiful. The need in Eastern Europe remains great and is only slowly changing for the better. The most vulnerable are still very much at risk and desperately poor. Many lack adequate health and social care. They work with a number of trusted partners and together their focus is to bring ‘Good News to Bulgaria’.  APC now supports them as missionaries and has funded the translation of “Freedom in Christ” into Bulgarian.  

See the Krasif Aid website for full details of the projects – Hospice and Care Centre, Sheltered Homes, Work with Churches and local craft production. Consider going out with a team, fund raising or being a donor.
