Fred and Anastassia Naff | Greece
Fred is an architect, and received his training and work experience in the United States, Italy, and also Greece, where he and Anastassia live. He is in charge of the work of the Design Group of “EuroTeam” (www.etdesign.eu), a part of Greater Europe Mission. EuroTeam works to assist the church in Europe with building design, construction assistance through volunteer teams, and other training through volunteers in areas like English language learning and computer skills. In his role in the Design Group, Fred does architectural design work and consulting for evangelical churches, camps, Bible schools and other ministries in Europe. He also coordinates the work of outside consultants in Europe and the United States who donate their time to help with architectural and structural design and related work.
Fred is also part of the leadership of MarketVenture (www.marketventure.org), also a part of Greater Europe Mission, which assists persons called to serve the Lord in Europe to do so while working in a secular job. Sometimes called "tentmaking" and sometimes called "Business as Mission", this type of approach gives people a platform from which to serve the Lord and also gives them immediate contact with co-workers, clients, and other people they meet through their work.
Anastassia owns and operates a pharmacy in Rafina, the town where she and Fred live, and this gives her many opportunities to talk about the "medicine that never runs out" (and has no side effects!), which is Christ. She also teaches a Greek language class as part of the program taught in English at the Greek Bible Institute.
