All about Albania: a path to spiritual awakanening

Limitless Spirit

What lead a devout Muslim boy from Albania to radically change his beliefs and embrace Christianity?
In this episode Hervin Fushikati, hares his journey from a strict Muslim upbringing to discovering faith in Christ. Hervin's story is intertwined with the rich history of Albania, once known as Illyricum, and its turbulent journey through the centuries. From being a Christian nation mentioned in the Bible to enduring Ottoman rule and becoming a predominantly Muslim country, Hervin offers a unique perspective on Albania's spiritual landscape. His personal transformation began in an extremist mosque and culminated in an unexpected encounter with a loving Christian community that forever changed his life.
You will also learn the socio-economic challenges Albania faces today, including youth migration and corruption, and explore how the church can be a beacon of hope. Hervin shares inspiring tales of Albanian hero Skanderbeg, who defended Europe against the Ottoman Empire, drawing parallels between historical and contemporary faith-driven transformations. As we wrap up, we highlight opportunities for global mission work, encouraging those who feel called to make a difference to consider joining our mission to Albania in March 2025. Hervin's journey is a testament to the transformative power of faith, and we invite you to visit World Missions Alliance's website at rfwma.org to learn more about participating in short-term missions across 32 countries. Don't miss out on this heartfelt and inspiring conversation.
