20 young men and women wrote history in September

-The actual opening, and the blessing, took place at 09.00 on Thursday 1 September in the Filadelfia church in Chisinau, the capital of Moldova, according to the leader of the congregation Doru Cirdei.

Two hours later, the new facilities at the Christian University (Universitatea Moldo-Americană) were inspected and put into use. The place is located at the Betany center outside the capital.

– The facilities that have been completed have been possible thanks to Visjon Norge’s support and contributions. We are so grateful to all the contributions that have come from good friends in Norway, says Doru Cirdei.

The first 20 students

The university area, which will house the first 20 students in the first year, has been made ready on the second floor of the current school building, where the sports hall has been located until now. This will now be an auditorium and reading areas.

-Our university has a partnership agreement with Southeastern University in the USA (see: www.seu.edu) when it comes to the academic program to be carried out, says Doru Cirdei.

– And the fully qualified students will receive an “American Degree”, something that is completely new for an Eastern European country, says the pastor.
