Two years ago, we took a team to Montespertoli, Italy (near Florence), to serve the Russo family with some repairs to their home. This fall, we are excited to share that we’re heading back to serve them once again!
Who Are the Russos?
The Russo family lives and serves in Italy. Like us, they have “normal” jobs and an active ministry in addition to that. In ministry they:
- Translate Free Grace materials and articles into Italian to make sound teaching accessible in their region.
- Teach through both speaking and writing in Italian and English. Check out their website and blog at https://gratia.gratis/.
- Host conferences nearby and Bible studies out of their home.
- Are working toward planting a local church—a small and growing body of believers in need of a dedicated gathering place!
The Mission This Fall
To help give their new church a functional, welcoming space to meet, we’re planning to take a small team of four people to help finish their building this fall. Our goals are:
- Add windows and lights to the space
- Add a small bathroom and possibly a kitchenette
- Paint and finish the interior
How You Can Partner With Us
As we prepare for this trip, we would love your support! Here is how you can join us:
- Pray: For smooth logistics, safety during travel and work, and for the Russo family as they continue reaching their community with the gospel.
- Support: You can donate to this project here: https://projects4missions.churchcenter.com/giving/to/italy.
Stay tuned for more updates as we get details worked out! Thank you for supporting us and the Russo family in this work.
