Missionaries Marin & Atena Bloj

Marin began New Generation Church in 2001 with the vision of Winning this generation for Christ and transforming it into a Holy Spirit filled New Generation that will take the message of the gospel into their communities and the world. Since that time, they have been in a continual state of growth and expansion, moving into their own sanctuary in October 2011, in time to celebrate 10 years of ministry.

They strategically disciple new believers and Marin and Atena pour their lives into training leaders who, in turn, raise up other leaders.

New Generation Church reaches out to the lost through evangelistic festivals, social and mission events, summer camps, Alpha courses, and expansion through church planting.

In 2021 they successfully launched two new campuses in the neighboring towns of Reghin and Toplita and have begun church plant outreaches in Saulia and Tarnaveni. Over the years their ministry focus has shifted from a generation to the generations.
