Kristijan Kalinov is married to Cassie – Sioux and leads the growing 24-7 Glasnost community in Skopje, Macedonia. They have 2 daughters and have recently been blessed with a newborn baby boy. Kristijan’s car has died and he is really unable to fulfil his role without a reliable replacement. They live 9 kilometres outside Skopje and have to have a car for food deliveries to the poor, church programmes, camps for kids, disability projects, transporting young people to Bible Studies, ministry in the Roma School, prison ministry and much much more – oh and then there is family life!
A reliable second hand car costs 5000 Euros and they have raised 3000 already and this lot will help them get over the line. A great cause!
Glasnost – New Car
How it works
The tradition of The Gathering Auction goes back further than we care to remember, and is unlike anything you will have experienced before.
The best way to sum it up in one word is OUTRAGEOUS.
It is an opportunity for outrageous giving to some highly worthy causes connected with 24-7 Prayer.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much can I bid?
We want everyone to be involved, but please only donate what you can afford to give. We’re encouraging outrageous generosity, but if you give £1 or £1000, you are still a star in our eyes.
Can I donate towards more than one item?
Of course! Donate towards as many items as many times as you like but, as hard as it may be, try not to get too carried away!
Where does my money go?
Each lot will support a different cause, and all causes are listed on the website. ALL the money received from the donations will go to that cause.
