Mark & Melanie Stoscher
Serving in Ersekë, Albania
Empowering Leaders in Ersekë, Albania
Mark and Melanie serve the Lord in Ersekë, a town of about 2,000 people in the southeast of Albania. Over the years many ministries have developed and flourished - all of them with significant Albanian leadership including the Evangelical Church of Ersekë, Crossroads - an International Torchbearers Bible School, and a vibrant summer camp ministry.
The church cares for people in the community including meals for the elderly and a program for at-risk children and teenagers which provides nurture, support and opportunities. This program includes after-school tutoring and helping the families in practical ways.
