Turkey is much in the news…and not just at Hope Chapel. Here’s a chance to get up close to what is happening there.
Join us Wednesday evening at 7PM in the Lighthouse at Hope to meet and hear from Emre K., a significant leader in the church in Turkey.
- He has been mentored by two of the more “apostolicly gifted” workers in Turkey. He was led to the lord in 2000 by and discipled for several years in Adana with Humberto C. Here he was grounded in evangelism and church planting. He carries the C’s fearless faith and passion.
- About 10 years ago he married and moved to Izmit to help with the church there who had lost leaders in connection with the Malatya murders fall out. Here he came under the mentorship of Carlos M.
- Then a few years ago while he was leading the church in Izmit police uncovered a plot to kill his entire family on the day it was to happen. The court case goes on with the perpetrators known and free.
- Emre has been consistently committed to follow up, church planting, and evangelism. He’s learned a passable amount of English. Today he’s working with a couple of church plants in the outlying areas of Istanbul.
- He is also taking increasing leadership in the Istanbul Protestant Church Foundation.
- He’s beginning an internet radio station and developing a lot of content.
