Since 1993, Laymen Ministries has been working in the country of Lithuania. Our ministry started the publishing work there, door to door book sales, young missions programs and even an annual camp meeting. Much of the history of our work here can be seen in our 2009 TV program “Lithuania: The Dream.”

We currently have 9 full-time Bible workers and they have been responsible for most of the baptisms in this small Baltic country. We also sponsor several pastors, such as Pastor Arunas along with his wife Neringa, who oversee our work.

One challenge the Bible workers face, in this increasingly secular country, is how to find people interested in Bible studies. A new idea has been implemented -- a lending Library. The workers go door-to-door and offer one of many books we have published, on a lending library plan.

LITHUANIA: SOURCE OF HOPE (2011)
TRT: 28:30

In 2011 the mission work in Lithuania continues to grow with new baptisms, publishing work, a lending library and more. We also take a look at some Lithuanian meals and the country's darker history in a visit to The Ninth Fort ("the fort of death"), and Trakkai Castle.

These books include the 20 Amazing Facts small pocket books that Laymen Ministries has translated into Lithuanian, as well as the new book Mary Magdalene by Doug Batchelor. We have also recently published Answers to Difficult Questions by Joe Crews and booklets by our Adventist pioneers on various subjects like: Three Sabbaths, Wine and Bible; The Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary; Origin of Sunday Worship; and other titles. There are also a number of volumes by Ellen White, including Desire of Ages, Great Controversy, Steps to Christ, and other essential titles.

All over Lithuania, thousands of books and pamphlets are being spread door-to-door through our workers and their lending libraries. Please pray for this ministry, that the Gospel Message will reach many.
