Rinaelya Nurmanova - Kazakhstan
Rinaelya has been a believer her whole life and grew up as a pastor’s daughter in Kazakhstan; her father serves as the pastor of a church in Almaty. At 14, her family experienced government persecution for their faith, losing property and Bibles. Even in those difficult circumstances, they trusted God completely, and in the years that followed, the Lord faithfully restored what had been taken. Through every season, Rinaelya and her family have personally witnessed God’s hand and His enduring faithfulness.
At 16, she experienced a powerful personal encounter with God, and later, while studying at Christ For The Nations Institute (CFNI) in Dallas, she came to know Him as a close Friend and was surrounded by peers who shared her passion for Him.
After graduating, Rinaelya returned to Kazakhstan to support her parents in ministry and pursue her own calling. She serves in youth and teen ministry, mentoring and discipling young people, organizing small group meetings and Bible studies, and creating a safe, welcoming environment where non-believing youth can encounter Christ. Her work focuses on building relationships and nurturing healthy Christian communities that foster long-term spiritual growth.

Her mission is to reach the youth of Kazakhstan, where less than one percent of the population is Christian, especially within the Charismatic movement.
In addition to her ministry in Kazakhstan, Rinaelya will participate in a short-term mission trip with Journey (May 2026), traveling to Greece, Bulgaria, and Cyprus alongside her younger brother, Tamir, and the ministry team.
She trusts God to provide through the generosity of individuals and churches who believe in the calling and purpose of this mission and warmly invites you to partner with her in serving the youth of Kazakhstan and wherever the Lord leads her.
