Sean & Brenda Mays

Career Missionaries since 2006, serving the Shqiptaret Muslims of Albania.

Sean and Brenda met at a U.S. Air Force base in Germany and were married two years later. They became Seventh-day Adventist Christians six years after that. Missions was on their hearts from the start. Evenings with their two daughters were often spent reading mission stories aloud.

Sean and Brenda and their daughters Megan and Moriah were called to Albania individually and together through a series of providential events. They all prayed for the people of Albania for over two years before they moved there with AFM to serve the people God had placed on their hearts.

Sean and Brenda have enjoyed serving the Albanian people since early 2006 and have been blessed to be part of a growing fellowship of Adventist believers in an area where there were none before. Additionally, they serve as AFM field directors for the Balkans, the Middle East and Eastern Europe.

Frontier Stories

The War

Elizabeta rushed to catch up with her friends on their way to school. As they entered their classroom, they kissed the framed photograph of the smiling face of the communist dictator they called Uncle Enver. As soon as they had all taken their seats, the teacher led them in a song honoring Enver Hoxha, who he said loved them very much.

Beautiful Journey

Zaku’s journey to Christ has been a long one, yet it has just begun. He recognizes that his baptism is a symbol of his new life with Christ, and he is hungry to learn more. He often uses the word “beautiful” to describe Bible stories and principles.

Outreach

The devil’s forces are very active in attempting to destroy what God is building in Albania, but we choose to focus on God’s blessing and protection. It is wonderful to behold! Your prayers are heard. Please don’t stop! The battle is not over.

Rebirth in Albania

Ramadan loved God, but he began to separate himself from his mosque in his later years as he became dismayed at the foreign extremism that threatened to overcome the faithful. Greed and corruption had replaced mercy and peace, and it broke his heart. He not only retired from his duties, he also stopped attending services.

Our Prayer Warrior

My grateful tears flowed freely as I hung up the phone last night. God had used Anila, a prayer warrior in the States and a stranger to me, to show me His boundless care.

Sometimes we hear stories of how God impresses people to pray very specifically without knowing any details of a situation. When we see how on-target their prayers were, our faith is greatly strengthened. God does speak to hearts when He knows they will listen.
