Dear Friends of the Turkmen

The planning committee is happy to announce that the 2021 Turkmen Network Gathering (TNG) will be held on July 23-24, 2021.  

The TNG is an international gathering where supporters can meet Turkmen and others involved in Turkmen ministry to build relationships, learn, encourage one another, share ideas and projects, declare God’s glory among the Turkmen and PRAY.

Due to ongoing COVID-19 concerns and restrictions the TNG will again be held by Zoom video conference.  Since the pandemic we’ve learned that this format allows more people to participate from locations around the world.

We ask that you register in advance in order to participate.  Please use the registration link below.  

We are looking forward to spending time with you — worshiping and praying together, hearing updates from the field, celebrating victories, and upholding the needs of the Turkmen people and the ministries that serve them. Our prayer is that together we will bring glory to God as we work to facilitate and support the sharing of the Good News with the Turkmen!

The purpose of the TNG is to provide a forum for:

Involvement – Understanding the big picture and the adventure of ministry among the Turkmen.

Intercession – Spending significant time together in prayer.

Information – Sharing what God is doing in Turkmenistan and in every nation where Turkmen are located.

Interaction – Building relationships, exploring emerging issues, and working together on projects.

Conference Format

The 2021 TNG will be held online by Zoom video conference on July 23-24. Fostering intimate interaction with our friends and family, this format allows us to see everyone and maintain a gathering for corporate worship, presentations, updates, discussion, collaboration, and prayer.
