Europe – Restoring Hope
The ruins of ancient churches symbolise a continent that has turned away from Christ.
We work to rebuild lives and raise up a generation established on a strong foundation and filled with hope in Jesus.

Once Upon a Time
Once, European Christians told the world about Jesus. Today’s “Christian” Europe is spiritually bankrupt. The ruins of ancient churches symbolise a continent that has turned away from Christ.
Emptiness
 Prosperous Europeans may seem content. But rising suicide rates, the desperate search for alternative spiritualities and the growth of other religions demonstrate the emptiness behind the façade.
Throughout Europe, nations are battling against the effects of crime, drugs and alcohol abuse while in places such as Bosnia, Kosovo and Ukraine whole communities have been shattered by war and poverty.
Restoring Hope
 Yet, in the midst of brokenness, God is restoring hope to Europe. Across the continent OM teams are living out the reality of the Gospel as they provide practical help, build friendships and share truth.
Together with the European church, OM is transforming lives and communities in more than 30 nations by caring for the unwanted, loving Muslims, empowering the next generations, reawakening the religious and challenging the secular.

Prayer Points
Please pray that God will restore hope to Europe.
- Pray for workers reaching out to the marginalised people in Europe (homeless, refugees, immigrants, drug addicts, alcoholics and prostitutes) that they will be filled with compassion and will demonstrate the love of Jesus to those they meet.
- Pray for God to raise up a new generation of Europeans who are on fire for Jesus and willing to share their passion for Him with others.
- Pray for unity among European churches and a common commitment to reach out with the good news of Jesus.
- Pray for the thriving churches in Eastern European countries such as Ukraine, Moldova and Romania to catch a vision for world missions.
