Ministry History

After a short-term missions trip to Romania in 1998, I (Jennifer) began my ministry there as a PAOC volunteer in missions in January 2000 and as a full-time global worker in June 2004. I began in orphan care and went on to implement early intervention programs for infants and toddlers in a number of state and private institutions. I also began ministry projects to help children living in poverty in Bucharest's downtown slum areas, including a social kindergarten and an after school for Roma children. In 2010 I married Raz Iacob and we continue our ministry today, reaching hundreds of children with the love and hope of Jesus. In 2024, we transitioned to global volunteers.
