Albania Teams in 2027 - Dates TBD

Stay tuned! Trips are being planned for 2027.
Albania
Albania was the world’s first and only atheist country. Today, less than 2% of their population are believers, but the gospel is on the move! The Compass Church supports missionaries and church planters there, and we are sending teams to serve them! Our ministry partners are not ready with 2027 dates yet. In the past we have sent teams to help with community outreach through a coffee shop, conduct evangelistic retreats for young adults, provide a spiritual retreat for church planters and training for worship leaders.
