Leadership and Membership

Fimiam Church has 250 Christians aged 14-86 who are members of our community. The average age of the church members is 33 years.

Majority of members (110 members) are people aged 25-40.

80 members are youth up to age 25.

60 members are adults over 40 years of age.

65 couples worship God together in Fimiam Church.

Besides 150 visitors of our church who are not yet members, children also come to worship God. There are more 100 children in our families.

Five hundred people (children and adults) visit Saturday and Sunday services.

Every year 20-30 people become members of our church and 50 people begin to visit our church. Through repentance and baptism, people become members of our church. Christians from other churches join us to serve God more.

More than 260 people were baptized in Fimiam Church during these 12 years. Almost all of them serve God fervently.

Around 10 families are created in Fimiam Church every year and 10 babies are born every year.

Around 100 members of our church are people whom God freed from alcohol and drug addictions.

There are students, teachers, doctors, lawyers, designers, environmentalists, cooks, hairdressers, entrepreneurs, businessmen and managers, engineers, financiers, janitors, builders, manufacturers, joiners, smiths, drivers (and where they are not! ?) and even truck drivers, veterinarians and miners.

All are united in one Lord, one faith, one baptism.

Fimiam Church is part of the Volyn Association of Baptist Churches and All Ukrainian Union of Baptist Churches, which has over 2,500 communities and over 150,000 Christians.
