The Exchange has created a unique ministry that bridges the gap between the Russian student the business professional, and the gospel. Our method is to use conversational English as the tool for building relationships of trust and respect. And ultimately share Jesus with those who have had l little or no contact with Christians or a local church.
Because of baggage carried over from the former communist system, and poor evangelistic efforts in the 1990s, recent demographic studies of Moscow paint a dismal picture of the spiritual awareness of its people. As a result, most Russians avoid church and spiritual matters.
On any given Sunday morning less than 2% of Russia’s post-communist generation attends church. This means only one out of every 200,000 people is in church on Sunday. Instead, most have fixed their eyes on the materialistic model of the West. The Exchange opens doors into their lives and builds bridges to the Gospel. But we cannot do it without your help!
