God's Grace on Display | Arad, Romania

Harvest Bible Fellowship

It is our privilege to share this powerful display of God's grace in the lives of His people.

More than a presentation of various ministries or an organization, the video below is a statement of the fact that Harvest Metanoia Arad is passionately building His Church!

Metanoia Arad is a community of believers who fully experience God and want to live in a dynamic and genuine way to lift high the name of Jesus...

On a continent where hundreds of churches are closing each year due to the lack of believers, this church is growing by an average of 100 members annually. Every weekend 600 adults and 140 children worship at Metanoia Arad (with approximately 500 meeting in over 50 small groups). Three services every weekend are not enough to keep from overfilling their auditorium seating; lack of space has been a primary issue for the past few years.

Enter prayer and fasting... Metanoia believers were rotating through a fast every day for three years and seeking the Lord fervently because there were no visible options; nothing existed in Arad to meet their worship needs. Then in the fall of 2009, after looking at more than thirty properties, the Lord provided a 2-acre piece of land adjacent to Arad's most traveled road and railway. By the spring of 2010, the church raised enough money to purchase the property.

The plan now is to build. Leaders and the Metanioa congregation are trusting God once again to provide as only He can to raise up a new home for the believers in Arad. Step one is to sell their current building, which will enable them to build a gymnasium on the property for a place to gather for services until the Lord provides the funds needed to build a worship center.

What can you do?

Pray. This is our most important request! Pray with us that God will bless His people and for this work to be established by His hand, so that our only boast is in the Lord Jesus.
Share this with other believers and your network of friends/family to enlist their prayers. Freely forward your newsletter or click the "share" or "email" icons at the top of the news article.
Help through a matching fund. Our goal is to support this work financially and our hope is to tell the church in Arad we will match their giving dollar-for-dollar, up to $100,000. While the weight of this capital campaign needs to be carried by the church in Arad, we would like to match their faithfulness if God enables us to do so. (Harvest Bible Fellowship has established an account for this matching gift where tax deductible contributions can be made. Contact if the Lord leads you in this direction.)
Keep praying! God has already used Metanoia Arad to plant five daughter churches, and we are trusting He will further His Kingdom through this church throughout Romania and Europe. Pray that the testimony of the Lord Jesus and the Word of God will continue to be proclaimed in this country and all of Europe with boldness.
