Pastor Norbert Nebiu
Tirana - Kinostudio
History
The ministry of the Tirana Biblical Baptist Church (KBBT) in the Kinostudio area began in the early 2000 years, when God used many believers from this church in serving to children with evangelization and weekly activities. A good part of the children who were saved during those years joined KBBT. After several years of continuous work, the service at Kinostudio was interrupted.
In the beginning of 2022, while sharing messages from the church in Antioch, Norbert Nebiu, one of the KBBT pastors, received a call from God to work on the starting a new church in another area of Tirana. The same wish was shared by Anila, Norbert’s wife. Anila and Norbert have served with KBBT since the mid-1990s. They have three children. To Norbert and Anila’s decision to serve God with the opening of a new church were joined Lorenc and Egla Cekiçi, Lorenc being one of the deacons of KBBT. Other faithful believers from KBBT joined the ministry as it was launched, being a great and sustainable support to the work of the Lord.
From the beginning of the ministry the Lord has blessed the service, directing us first to rent a proper space in Kinostudio, and further, by drawing people to Sunday and evangelical services. A few months after the start of Sunday services, children’s service began on Saturday mornings.

Newsletter
We had a blessed time this weekend. First, in the Saturday children's service 4 children, who have not attended for quite some time, came again. It was great joy for us to see them show up.
On Sunday we had full participation from our people and many guests, too. Among the participants, we had several high school students who ccome at the weekend math and literature classes. In the end, after the call to testify if someone decided to trust the Lord, a high school girl and a colleague of Ina raised their hands. We are grateful to God for His goodness and the faithfulness of the believers in participating and attracting people to hear the gospel. Thank you for your prayers!
