Mission Partners
We have a strong emphasis on developing partnerships with overseas Mission Partners, whom we uphold through prayer, financial giving and visits, both of teams to partners and of partners to Warfield.
We currently support the following mission partners:
Milan and Shusma Adhikari

We have supported Milan and Shusma (and their three girls, Amishu, Nesia and Prajwalita) for many years, since before they started the Aanandit Church in 2002. Aanandit have planted various congregations in the Kathmandu area and are involved in various community projects.
Shusma is the Executive Director of the Aanandit Charity Centre and the charity supports the local people in the community and arranges educational sponsorship. Milan and Shusma are on the church leadership team and are also involved in various ministries nationally, with leadership training and women’s ministries.

Pastor Iuri Valkovi
Krasif Aid, Sliven, Bulgaria
We have been supporting various projects in Bulgaria through Krasif Aid (Krasif means beautiful) since 2002. During this time, Warfield Church has had the opportunity to send volunteer ministry teams to work with the vulnerable and poor people in Sliven. This is done through the Women and Young People's Safe Houses, Men's Institutes, Older Peoples home, Orphanages and Gypsy Villages.
All our work and support is through working in partnership with Krasif Aid supporting Aleteia Baptist Church and Pastor Iuri and his wife Plamy. The church has been reaching out to those in need for over 30 years to the people of Sliven. Plamy is the Director of the Blue House where people with disabilities and other needs are supported.

Weekly Mission Partner Focus
Our prayers this week are for Iuri and Plamy Valkovi in Sliven, Bulgaria. They lead the Aleteia Baptist Church and work with the vulnerable and poor people in Sliven. This is done through the Women and Young People's Safe Houses, Men's Institutes, Older Peoples home, Orphanages and Gypsy Villages, and more.
Plamy writes:
Dear Warfield Church family, thank you very much for your love, support and care in prayer for us!
As a result of our prayers together, we did have very blessed summer. Very successful children week at church, blessed birthday of the church, evangelisation event in the village we work Glushnik, one-day "church-building" trip with the young families from the church. On a personal note, the children had very blessed time at the Christian camp and Victor did very well. He also had successful session in the university in the beginning of September and the girls are also back to school from 15th of September. For the Blue House, praise the Lord, He made the impossible and we received financial support 75% from the Work Load service for one more year! Unfortunately, the plans for the book shop - café are not yet ready and the monthly support from Krasif Aid towards the expenses of the Blue House finished.
You can pray for our church and the approaching Harvest day. May God use these moments to reach new people. We are starting again the Sunday School after the summer vacation as well as other activities in order to reach the different ages. Praise the Lord, the young mother with cancer is on new medication which gives results. We continue to support and pray for her. Her son was admitted in the higher school of his first choice.
For the Blue House, our main requests are for God's provision for the monthly costs and for receiving the plans for the renovation.
For us personally, we face many challenges but our deepest prayer is to remain faithful and to serve God through our ministry.
Please, pray for our nation because we are going through hard times with the change of the Leva into Euro. Anyway our Economy is in crisis but even more now.
We send warm greetings to all of you and can say we remain bound in Christ with you and close in prayer 🙏 We are also praying for your church 🙏
