Missionaries Yevgeny and Katya Shchirsky [pronunciation: Shirshki] with their children. Yevgeni leads a small congregation there and does evangelisation work. This autumn, they hope to come to the Netherlands for a meeting day of the Friedensstimme foundation. Their visit to the Netherlands also provides a unique opportunity: you can invite them to your church to learn about the work in the far North from the missionaries themselves.
Jevgeni and Katja frominvite
You are welcome to invite the couple to speak during or after the service, depending on what suits your congregation best. There are slots available, God willing, on Sunday 4 October and Sunday 11 October (update: registration is no longer open). Jevgeni and Katja already have various appointments scheduled during the week. However, if you would like to organise a weekday meeting with them between 3 and 16 October, we will check what is still possible.
An interpreter accompanies the family at all meetings.

We apply the first-come, first-served principle. All municipalities are cordially invited to express their interest, even if they have already received a visit from the far north in 2025. However, should a choice have to be made, we will give priority to municipalities that have not yet had a visit in 2025.
