Jeff & Ana Bullock
Senior Pastors
Edinburgh, Scotland

Jeff and Ana are currently pastors in Scotland.  Prior to that they were in Budapest, Hungary from 2006-2009.  They have previously served in ministry in the USA as well as Europe.  After serving in campus ministry, as the King's Park International Church youth pastors in NC, and as missionaries to Ukraine, Jeff and Ana Bullock moved to Krakow, Poland to plant a church in 1998.  Since then, the church has grown through its focus on evangelism and making disciples even though the highly Catholic culture is resistant to the message of the gospel.  Today, their efforts have been successful in raising up native leaders to pastor the church in Poland and they are moving forward in faith to do the same in Scotland.

Ref 133 - Vaughn Ministry 

 

 

 

Alan Vaughn
Apologetics Ministry

      Alan Vaughn is a missionary working in the field of Christian apologetics and interfaith evangelism. After accepting faith in Christ through a supernatural conversion experience in 2003, Alan quickly realized that the reasons he had for his new beliefs were deeply personal reasons that often do not make sense to those who are skeptical and have questions about the Christian faith. That is when Alan’s passion for Christian apologetics began.

     Due to the realization that many other Christians face the same kind of predicament—loving Christ, but not knowing answers to difficult questions or arguments posed by people of other worldviews—Alan began this ministry in an effort to help people in the body of Christ effectively intersect their faith with reason by understanding how to respond to perennial arguments offered to discredit the Christian faith and how to articulate a thoughtful, reasonable defense of Christianity’s truth claims. He does this mainly by providing apologetic and interfaith evangelism training at churches, college campus ministries, missions schools, and small groups. Alan has a BA in Religious Studies and a BA in Psychology from East Carolina University (2008). Alan and his wife Arlissa are currently preparing to move to Los Angeles, CA, where Alan will begin graduate studies toward a MA in Christian Apologetics and an MA in Science and Religion from Biola University.

Ref 101 - Watkins Ministry

Mike & Myra Watkins
Missionaries
Kiev, Ukraine

Even while we were laboring to plant a church in Lviv, Ukraine from 1993-2004, the Watkins felt that the capital, Kiev would be their next church plant.  In 2004, when their time of leading the church in Lviv had come to an end and Ukrainian leaders were raised up, they embarked on a three-year journey that led them to New York, Manila and finally back to Kiev. While in Manila, they saw a kind of growth that forever impacted their lives. Simple people leading and discipling others in creative small groups! We knew that this was a great approach for Kiev, so we began our plans.

Kiev has a population over 3 million. This is not only their new home, but it is a place for training others who will reach the rest of the Russian-speaking world.  Click here to learn more about reaching Kiev, Ukraine.
