Bosnian Immigrants

Sasha and Mira Zivanov are CBF field personnel working in St. Louis with Bosnian Immigrants.

Many refugees from the former Yugoslavia come to St. Louis with next to nothing. All their earthly possessions, several family members, and many productive years of their own lives were lost to violence, conflict, and hardship.

They have come here with hope. And the Bosnian Ministry team meets their hope with friendship, service and faith. The team is eager to help in any way as these immigrants build new lives in a new neighborhood. As followers of Christ, the team helps them to discover peace, reconciliation and wholeness.

Originally from Serbia (Mira) and Austria (Sasha), the Zivanovs minister to refugees from the former Yugoslavia, which includes the countries of Bosnia, Slovenia and Croatia.

The Zivanovs work in partnership with the ministries of Kirkwood Baptist Church, a CBF partner congregation, and other local churches. One of the important outreach ministries to refugees are food pantries. The Zivanovs hope to develop other outreach programs, including English and computer classes and starting a church among refugees.
