Albania is a small country across the Adriatic Sea from Italy. It is commonly considered to be the only Muslim country in Europe, as well as one of the poorest. But there is a vibrancy in the capital city of Tirana - and also materialism. Here there is a congregation in the main port city of Durres and a Christian information center in Tirana. One missionary is training two dedicated Albanian men to lead these two groups. Two WELS Kingdom worker volunteers teach English and make other contacts to broaden the outreach.
For the security of our missionary families, national workers, and those we are reaching with the Gospel, the Board for World Missions has chosen NOT to post information about select mission fields. The public posting of such material could endanger the people or the work being done. If you would like to know more about our activity in a specific part of the world and do not find information on our website, please contact the world mission office with your questions.
