During the past 32 years God has opened many doors overseas and especially in Eastern Europe where lasting friendships and relationships have been established with leaders and churches.

Ukraine: During the 1990's Vintage Ministries worked in the Ukraine with one major church denomination. This included visiting churches, serving in their Bible Seminary, holding conferences for Pastors and leaders in Kiev. In 2006 Brian was again in Kiev at a School for leaders teaching on the Kingdom of God.

Russia: In 2002 we were invited to hold a Prophetic / Father Heart Conference in Moscow hosted by 7 churches and this was followed by two further conferences in 2003 & 2004. As a direct outcome of these conferences invitations were received from churches to conduct similar conferences. Since then relationships have been built and we now serve on a regular basis churches in St Petersburgh, Moscow & Novomoskovisk.

Poland: Our involvement in Poland goes back to 1978 and over the past 32 years more than 150 people have served on teams ministering into this nation. Throughout the 1980's the LORD linked our hearts with many Catholic Charismatic groups, including a priest involved in the leadership of this renewal movement. Our main emphasis was to provide training for their leaders.

In the early 1990's we facilitated two major conferences with the late John Wimber and Ralph Martin. One saw an historic first in Poland with 600 Protestant and Catholic Leaders coming together. The second conference brought together 3000 church members both Protestant and Catholic.

With huge changes taking place in the Catholic Church in the 1990's our emphasis changed and the LORD began to link us with various leaders of Protestant churches so that over the past 20 years there has emerged a pattern of regular visits by Brian Hayes and Vintage Ministries teams to many churches throughout Poland. This continues to this present day with up to 6 visits taking place each year.
