Only 0.2% of Poland’s population is Evangelical Christian and there are only about 700 churches in the entire country of 37.6 million people. The church in Poland is growing and people are increasingly hungry and thirsty to know Jesus, but there is still much work to be done to train and equip believers and church leaders to multiply and reach their country for Christ.

In Poland, it is difficult for pastors and churches to work together because they lack a suitable meeting space. Almost all of the churches in Poland rent small spaces to meet that are not fit for large gatherings.

Avant is partnering with Evangelical Poland, an exciting new initiative and network of churches across Poland, to help purchase a facility that will be a multipurpose ministry center. The property includes a large building with 19 rooms, 27 cabins in the woods, a conference room, a cafeteria, two tennis courts, and a parking lot. This space will allow churches to work in partnership, holding retreats, conferences, leadership development trainings, evangelistic events, and other gatherings throughout the year for greater collaboration and outreach.

God is doing great things through Evangelical Poland, and we believe this Impact Center will provide the space for exponential growth in the Polish church. Avant’s goal is to raise $320,000 of the total amount needed to purchase the property and make some needed renovations. The remaining need will be provided by other supporting churches and ministry partners in the US and Europe, and through members and ministry partners of Evangelical Poland.
