Together with a team of nine other people, Alexey continues to work in the Christian club, which already has about 40attendees (young people, teenagers, and children nine years old and older). All the visitors are divided into four groups, where they listen about Christ, sing songs, play various games, and share. The church where Alexey is involved in ministry is fairly young. It was begun 2 years ago by two missionary families. It now has sixteen members, and 80% of them are busy with the club.

Since his 1999 graduation from DCU’s one year missionary program, Alexander Guz looks back at his time spent at DCU and recalls that it helped him to realize how Eastern Europe’s great need of ministers is what enlarged his missionary vision. This is why Alexander joined a large-scale Christian Tent Mission immediately after graduating. And today he’s the executive director of Christian Tent Ministries (CTM) in Russia.
