Community Advocate and Administrator

Just a short drive from Bulgaria’s Balkan Mountains you will find the village of Tulovo, situated on a main road between two larger cities. Made up of about 1,300 people, the population is evenly split between ethnic Bulgarians and Roma peoples. The cultural divide is obvious and compelling. On the far side of the village, in the Roma quarter, is a small, humble building which is home to the evangelical church, predominantly attended by Roma. They gather for loud, joyful services of celebration twice weekly - God moves deeply in this place!

Bulgarians are people of faith, with about 85% of the population claiming Eastern Orthodoxy as their faith. A large majority of these are nominal adherents, rarely stepping inside the church. Protestants, on the other hand, make up just over one percent of the population. The need is great for people to show a practical faith in Jesus Christ, then invite others to follow Him.

In the heart of the village you’ll find The Gathering Place, the team’s welcoming ministry center. This is where the action is, where “no one is invisible”! Gatherings take place most days of the week. God has put so many gifts into the young people and adults here and there is a great need for people to support them in their development as believers and leaders.

As our team expands its areas of influence, we seek an administratively gifted Goer to help our team run smoothly and efficiently through project work in photography, film, social media platforms. Areas of further support include preparing for meetings, assistance in many writing tasks, file and resource organization and management. This Goer would also spend part of his/her time directly in the community participating through use of his/her gifts bringing about transformational change.
