Ministry Vision

Ghiorghi, a native of Romanesti, Romania, fled the oppression of communism with his wife Cristina in 1990 and came to the United States. Two years later they heard and received the true Gospel message. By 1993 they had achieved the American dream and owned a business, but God had other plans.

As a result of an auto collision in 1995 that nearly took their lives, Ghiorghi had an encounter with the Lord. One question was ringing in his heart. “What have I done in my life since receiving salvation?” At that moment he responded to the call of God and committed to fulfill his life’s purpose of reaching the lost for Jesus Christ.

Ghiorghi and Cristina established Gospel Ministries International, Inc. in 1996. God opened the door for ministry in America as well as the Philippines, India, and Mexico. They were ordained as missionaries by the International Ministerial Association (IMA) in 1997.

In 1998 God called them to return to Eastern Europe. In 2000, after a time of preparation, they returned to Eastern Europe to accomplish the vision God gave them of changing lives, restoring families and transforming nations by making disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ.

This vision is being accomplished through a network of 50 Godly men and women supported by GMII through church planting, bible school training, leadership training, reaching the younger generation through summer camps and ministry to orphans, and the elderly.

Ghiorghi and his wife Cristina (co-founder of GMII) have been married for 18 years and are in the process of adopting 5 children.
