The official beginnings of the Evangelical
Church-Negotino are dating from 1999. In that year, Goran Iliev was
ordained as a pastor, andtogether with his family, he moved to the city
Negotino and the church started with official services, in rented
premises. After a year, with God's help, the church was able
to buy a building in downtown. With this, E. C.
Negotino received his own church building (in 2001) and started with the
services, although the official opening is not until
2002.
