Dorin & Anastasia Ciorescu

Otniel, Elias, Teodor, Matias

In 2015, God led Dorin and Anastasia to Orhei, Moldova, a vibrant city where young people from across the region come to study in colleges. Recognizing this unique opportunity to have contact with young people, they dedicated themselves to youth ministry in a local church, seeking to shape lives during these formative years.

In 2018, Dorin began supervising youth ministry in four counties under the Baptist Union of Moldova, equipping local youth leaders to maximize their impact. By 2024, they left their design business to fully invest in ministry with Josiah Venture, where Dorin now serves as the national training director.

Their vision and desire is to see a movement of God ignite among Moldova’s youth, rooted in the local church, that transforms both individuals and society. Dorin and Anastasia pray their four boys will grow up surrounded by mission, catching their parents’ passion for God and his kingdom.
