A denomination made up of local congregations.

How it began

In the late eighties, in Skopje and Shtip, a few people came to faith in Jesus and began meeting informally. In 1988 missionaries from Serbia arrived and the official services began.

In 1991 the churches bought houses that became church buildings, and the headquarters has remained at 16 Franklin Roosevelt Street.

The full history

How it is led

The main decision-making body is the Council of Pastors, made up of all ordained pastors. It is headed by the president together with an executive team of five.

The president is Petre Petrov, who is also the pastor of the Evangelical Church in Shtip.

The leadership

What we do

Every local church has its own regular gatherings, and together they are the recognisable mark of the denomination: Sunday services, prayer meetings, Bible classes and fun activities for children, teenage and youth meetings, women’s and men’s gatherings for fellowship and Bible study, Christian and Bible courses such as ALPHA and ANA for women, evangelistic events, concerts and promotions.

Alongside that: humanitarian work, publishing and theological education. The day and time of each gathering are on that church’s own page.

Humanitarian work

What’s coming

Events of a national character — gatherings that bring together believers from every local evangelical church.
