David & Erin Pervis
Our Missionaries of the Month are David & Erin Pervis. The Pervises serve with MTW in Athens, Greece.
Get to Know the Pervises
David and Erin have served with Mission to the World (MTW) for 24 years. They became Christians as children. They were married in 1996. Since 1999, they have served on MTW teams in Sofia, Bulgaria, Kyiv, Ukraine, and Athens, Greece, using English instruction as an avenue for evangelism in church planting with national pastors. In 2018, they joined an MTW church planting team in Athens to assist the Greek Evangelical Church in the suburb of Glyfada in their care of refugees from the Middle East and Central Asia. They continue to give English instruction to refugees, share in their daily lives, and offer opportunities to hear the gospel and study the Bible in their own languages. Erin also volunteers with the Nea Zoi (New Life) ministry in their outreach and service to individuals caught up in prostitution and human trafficking in Athens.

Serve Through Prayer
One the most important things we can do for our missionaries is pray for them regularly! It may seem small, but it is a great privilege to intercede for others in prayer. Consider printing their photo off or write their name on a card and place it somewhere you will see regularly!
Here are few specific ways to pray:
1. Pray for the continued growth of the believing refugee families at the the Voula House and for the Muslim families to come to Christ. Pray for the Sunday night Bible study there and weekly women’s handwork meetings at the Glyfada Church to be use by God toward those ends.
2. Pray for the growth and outreach of the Greek Evangelical Church of Glyfada and for the Lord’s leading through Pastor George Tolias.
3. Pray for Nea Zoi outreaches on the streets and in the Brothels of Athens every week. Pray for deliverance and salvation for these women and men who are victims of human trafficking and prostitution.
4. Pray for spiritual and physical protection for our grown children Clara, Josiah and Josiah’s wife Hannah. Pray for Clara to pass her clinical procedures demonstrations and two Board Exams to be fully certified in Respiratory Therapy this summer and for God to bless Josiah as he starts music composition graduate school at Temple University this fall.
5. For our Home Ministry Assignment (Jan 19 - July 23), pray for Erin and for me for strength and open doors as we visit our supporting churches, supporters and family. Pray God will make us a blessing, encourage those who hear us and use us to challenge many to go to the fields that are white to harvest. Pray for our smooth return to Greece on July 24.
