Vladyslav Kapelnykov Berlin

Vlad knew little about what it meant to be Jewish. His first “aha” moment came when he saw a video about Moses and realized he was related to this man and his people. He then went to a synagogue but found no answers.

After university, he was hired as a cameraman for a film project that involved filming Christian services in prison, he saw lives changed and eventually joined in a prayer of repentance, experiencing God’s transforming power.

Vlad and his wife Stacie moved to Berlin to become part of the Jews for Jesus missionary team there. He produces Christian video content in German and English, and is preparing to launch Russian-language programs as well. Vlad and Stacie do personal outreach to Jews in Berlin and across Germany, meeting mainly with Russian-speaking creatives and visiting synagogues to meet new people. His goal is to reach the city’s 50,000 Russian-speaking Jews with the gospel.
