  • God Is Already There: Trusting Him Through Calling, Waiting, and Loss | Stefan and Jenny Bacioiu
    Nov 11 2026

    “God is already there.”

    Stefan and Jenny Bacioiu came to missions by very different roads, but God brought both of their stories together in Romania. In this episode, they share how God redirected their plans, shaped their calling, and taught them to trust Him through ministry, waiting, and loss.

    Jenny reflects on children’s ministry, adoption, and the loss of Ezechiel, while Stefan shares how years of waiting in America became a season of preparation for returning home to serve his own people. Their story is a reminder that God is often doing His deepest work in the seasons we are most tempted to misunderstand.


    ABOUT OUR GUEST
    Stefan and Jenny Bacioiu serve in Romania with ABWE, helping strengthen local churches and pursue new church-planting opportunities. Jenny first served in Romania as a missionary teacher and later became involved in children’s ministry, orphan care, and adoption. Stefan, a native Romanian, came to Christ after years away from the church and now carries a strong burden to reach his own people with the gospel.

    PRAY FOR STEFAN & JENNY

    • Pray for Stefan, Jenny, and their family as they continue readjusting to life in Romania after several years in the United States. Ask God to give their children security, joy, and a growing sense that Romania is home.
    • Pray for wisdom as they step back into ministry relationships and determine where God would have them invest most deeply. They have a particular burden to strengthen churches and pursue new church-planting opportunities.
    • Pray for gospel fruit among the Romanian people, especially in places where religious tradition can make people assume they already understand Christianity. Ask God to open hearts to Scripture and to salvation in Christ.
    • Pray for continued opportunities to invest in children, families, and local believers. Their ministry has shown them that God often uses seemingly small acts of faithfulness to produce lasting fruit.
    • Thank God for bringing the Bacioiu family safely back to Romania, providing a place for them to live, and supplying a vehicle beyond what they expected. Pray that these answered needs would strengthen their confidence in God’s faithfulness in the days ahead.

  • The Front Side of the Tapestry: Seeing God’s Faithfulness Across a Lifetime | Charlotte Lowe
    Oct 28 2026

    “We spend our lives looking at the back side of the tapestry. It’s only after you come to be my age that you can look back and see how He wove it together.”

    Charlotte Lowe has spent more than four decades in missions, serving alongside her late husband, Roy, in Spain and throughout the Spanish-speaking world. Now 90 years old, Charlotte continues to serve through translation work, Bible teaching, music ministry, and encouraging a new generation of missionaries.

    In this conversation, Charlotte reflects on the surprising ways God directed their lives—from visiting Spain before they had even trusted Christ, to being drawn into Jewish missions, to watching believers from Mexico and other nations become missionaries themselves. She also shares what decades of seeing God provide have taught her about worry, contentment, cross-cultural ministry, and measuring success by faithfulness rather than visible results.

    Perhaps the clearest thread running through Charlotte’s story is that usefulness in God’s kingdom does not end when a ministry assignment changes. After the loss of her husband and the physical limitations that come with age, her desire remains simple: to keep finding something she can do for the Lord and to remain faithful to the very end.


    ABOUT OUR GUEST

    Charlotte Lowe has served in missions for more than 44 years, including 17 years in Spain alongside her late husband, Roy, with the International Board of Jewish Missions. Their ministry eventually expanded throughout the Spanish-speaking world, where they helped encourage and equip believers and missionaries to take the gospel across national borders. Today, Charlotte remains active through Spanish translation work for Hispanic missionaries, teaching a widows’ Bible study, playing organ, singing in her church choir, and encouraging younger believers preparing for missionary service.

    • Other ministry resources: Charlotte continues translating The Everlasting Nation magazine and other Jewish and Bible-study materials into Spanish for Hispanic pastors and missionaries.


    PRAY FOR CHARLOTTE

    • Pray that Charlotte’s eyesight will remain strong enough for her to continue the ministry God has given her. She shared that she is experiencing macular degeneration and is receiving treatment, and her desire is to keep serving faithfully for as long as she is able.
    • Pray for the young men and women Charlotte calls her “borrowed grandchildren” who are preparing for ministry. She specifically asked prayer for two young men already in Bible college and two young women preparing to begin their studies, that God would guide and equip them for whatever place of service He has for them.
    • Pray for Charlotte’s ongoing translation ministry and for the Latino missionaries who depend on Spanish-language resources. Ask God to continue using the abilities He has given her to strengthen pastors, missionaries, and churches throughout the Spanish-speaking world.
    • Pray that God will continue giving Charlotte meaningful ways to serve in this season of life. Her prayer is not simply to remain busy, but to stay useful and faithful with whatever abilities and opportunities God continues to provide.

  • Leaning on the Door: Ready to Go, Willing to Stay | David and Karin Brown
    Oct 14 2026
    “God, I want to go, if You’ll show me where and when.”For more than three decades, David and Karin Brown have lived with that posture—what they call “leaning on the door of missions.” Their ministry has taken them repeatedly to South Africa, where they have served through church planting, discipleship, church revitalization, and the training of pastors and ministry leaders. Today, that work continues as they equip leaders across Africa and the Middle East.In this conversation, David and Karin reflect on the calling that took them from a law career and a settled life in Pennsylvania to South Africa, the frightening experience that forced their family to decide whether they would stay, and the joy of watching the gospel transform people who are now discipling and preparing to reach others. They also discuss what decades of cross-cultural ministry have taught them about distinguishing what is truly biblical from what is simply familiar.Their story ultimately moves from being missionaries sent to South Africa to watching South African believers become missionaries themselves—a reminder that faithful missions is not about building a ministry around ourselves, but equipping others to carry the gospel forward.ABOUT OUR GUESTDavid and Karin Brown have served in missions for more than 30 years with Biblical Ministries Worldwide. Their ministry has included church planting, church revitalization, discipleship, and church-based leadership training in South Africa. Today, their emphasis is increasingly on “training leaders who train leaders,” equipping pastors, missionaries, church leaders, and their wives through ministry in South Africa, Uganda, Egypt, Jordan, and beyond. David develops and teaches theological training materials, while Karin disciples and encourages women alongside him. Together, they continue investing in national leaders who can strengthen local churches and prepare others for ministry.CONNECT WITH DAVID & KARINBiblical Ministries Worldwide: David & Karin Brown missionary profileSeven Rivers Outreach: 7RiversOutreach.orgNational Theological College & Graduate School: NTCGS.orgBiblical Ministries Worldwide South Africa: BiblicalMinistries.co.zaEmail: BrownRSA@gmail.comPRAY FOR DAVID & KARINPray for the pastors and ministry leaders David and Karin are helping train across Africa and the Middle East. Many of these men and women serve in difficult and uncertain circumstances. Pray that they will remain grounded in Scripture and faithfully teach others what they are learning. Pray for believers and ministry students in the Middle East. David described students in places such as Jordan and Lebanon living and studying amid significant instability and disruption. Ask God to give them endurance, wisdom, and opportunities to continue their training and ministry. Pray for the next generation of African missionaries. South African churches are increasingly preparing and sending their own missionaries, including believers David and Karin have watched grow through local-church ministry and discipleship. Pray for these new missionaries as they prepare to carry the gospel into communities and countries where God is leading them. Pray for continued fruit through Seven Rivers Outreach. The ministry is serving a rural Zulu community through gospel teaching, discipleship, practical ministry, and a newly completed medical clinic. Pray especially for lasting spiritual fruit among those who must count a significant cultural and relational cost in choosing to follow Christ alone. Pray for wisdom for David and Karin in this next season of ministry. After decades of demanding ministry without an extended sabbatical, they are seeking to discern how best to use the years ahead. Pray that they will continue to “discern the Father’s will, do the Father’s will, and delight in the Father’s will,” with strength and wisdom for the teaching and travel opportunities God provides.
