Our mission is to share the Gospel with Romanian youth and adults in a relevant and creative way, and to lead them to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and be motivated to serve.

The PdF Team is

  • multicultural and interdenominational
  • living and serving as a Christian community
  • open for Christians to join for any length of time.

The PdF Center is

  • a place where people can experience the presence of Jesus
  • a beautiful facility for camps, conferences, Bible school and other events
  • a starting point for both sharing the Gospel in Romania and over the borders, and for serving local churches.

The International Community “Torchbearers

“Purtătorii de Făclie” is part of a larger community, Torchbearers International, with 25 Christian centers all over the world, offering a network of Bible Schools and distinctive programs in each country.

Our Basis of Faith

  • The Bible is, in its entirety, the revelation of God for mankind, inspired by the Holy Spirit.
  • God is the triune God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
  • The Lord Jesus Christ is God’s Son being one with the Father. All things are created by Him and for Him.
  • Through the action of the Holy Spirit, and born of the Virgin Mary, He became man.
  • He was without sin and of His free will, and by His sacrificial death upon the Cross, He brought about salvation for this fallen world.
  • He is the only mediator between God and man, and by accepting His salvation through faith, man is justified from his sins and receives forgiveness and eternal life.
  • Jesus Christ is risen bodily from the dead.
  • Jesus Christ will return to deliver just judgement and to bring all things to completion.
  • The Holy Spirit is God in unity with the Father and the Son.
  • Through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, Jesus Christ comes to dwell within those who accept Him through faith. Through the presence of the Holy Spirit, a person becomes a new creature and is being transformed into the likeness of Jesus Christ.
  • Jesus Christ adds those who believe in Him to his Body. This is His church on earth, of which He is the Head.
