George Bakalov was born and raised in Sofia, the capital city of Bulgaria. He became a Christian in 1989, shortly before the fall of the Berlin wall and the end of Communist regime in Bulgaria. Only a year later the Lord called him into the full time ministry and he started a new church in Sofia, which grew to around 1000 members in four short years. In the last decade, the church, today known as Breakthrough Christian Center (Hristianski Center Prelom), has been actively involved in impacting Bulgaria, the Balkan region and Eastern Europe by organizing and hosting evangelistic campaigns, international believer's conferences, media ministry and apostolic networking among leadership.
George has traveled and ministered in over 30 different nations in Europe, North America, Latin America, Asia and Africa. His message of reformation and revival has stirred tens of thousands of believers to pursue the Kingdom of God first.
George is the founder and overseer of the Apostolic Reformed Church, a network of churches in Bulgaria with national membership of approximately 2,500 people in close to 40 different churches and in partnerships with over 100 other Bulgarian churches who are non-member affiliates.
A Prayer to Help You Comfort Others - Your Daily Prayer - April 25
Have you ever wondered if there is any purpose in your suffering? We certainly don’t go looking for suffering—it comes to us because life is a journey through difficulties and triumphs. Sufferings are a reminder of what Jesus Christ went through and it is a way for us to encourage others.
