Byelorussian Mission · Annual Banquet

Since 2000, Byelorussian Mission has become the leading beacon of light in Eastern Europe. Twelve years of pastor training brought churches together across denominations, and that unity opened the door for the Festival of Hope with Franklin Graham. Now new believers need churches to grow in, and we are inviting churches here to adopt a city.
Join us for an evening of dinner, worship with Joel Chernoff, and a message from Preston Thompson.
“that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me.”

Keynote Speaker, Redeemer Baptist Church

Featured Musician, Founder of LAMB

A few moments from our evening together at the Forsyth Conference Center. We can’t wait to celebrate with you again.





Perfect for those who value impactful events and memorable evenings
Perfect for generous groups who value impactful giving and the power of the Gospel
In this next phase of ministry, our goal is to plant 50 new churches across Eastern Europe, each one partnered with a church here for the long term, just as First Redeemer did in Brest.

Joel Chernoff is one of the pioneers of Messianic worship music. In 1972 he founded the group LAMB, writing songs that blended Jewish and Israeli melodies with contemporary praise at a time when almost no one was doing it. Recording for Sparrow Records, LAMB released more than a dozen albums, sold hundreds of thousands of copies, and placed songs in the Top 10 of the Contemporary Christian Music charts through the 1970s and 80s. The sound they introduced is known today as Messianic Praise and Worship. Joel now serves as General Secretary and CEO of the Messianic Jewish Alliance of America and chairs the Joseph Project International, the largest importer of humanitarian aid in the State of Israel. We are honored to have him lead us in worship this evening.

Preston Thompson has served as pastor of Redeemer Baptist Church since 2003. He received his Master of Divinity from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary and recently returned from St. Petersburg and Belarus, where he joined hundreds of pastors and young church leaders for training conferences. Preston and his wife, Natalie, have three children.
