Mission Spotlight

Roma Networks

Tom & Dora Becker

You can find Roma people all over Europe. They are Europe’s largest minority -- and the most marginalized. But the Romani are coming to faith in great numbers -- and our Mission Partners, Tom and Dora Becker, play an integral part of resourcing them! They work with Roma Networks to equip national leaders in Europe so they can strategically plant Roma churches, disciple Roma leaders, and resource Roma communities, creating jobs, education opportunities, and more.

We'll come alongside Roma Networks this October in Croatia and Bosnia. Want to meet Romani families and leaders, learn about the challenges they face, and have opportunities to support and encourage them? Here are two videos that will help you understand who the Roma are and what is helping them recover their culture and identity in Christ: We Are Here and Reach. If you have a heart to disrupt systemic injustice, equip people with resources, and encourage faith, consider going with us Oct. 24 – Nov. 1 to Croatia and Bosnia with Tom Becker!

Winter 2025 Prayer Guide

Invitation to Prayer

Join Our Prayer Team!



"Serving as a member of the NPC Prayer Team has been a privilege and has helped transform my prayer life in numerous ways. Having a connected group that regularly meets to pray over the needs of our community provides structure and encouragement for my commitment to prayer. In addition, hearing fellow team members praying has helped me find my voice and increased my comfort in praying aloud. Learning the prayer requests of our church and community gives me more awareness of the needs, making me much more empathic. Most significantly, praying for the NPC community's concerns humbly allows me to serve and see how God faithfully hears our prayers."

-Allegra Erickson
