After ten years of rapid growth The United Methodist Church in post-Soviet countries shows obvious signs of slowing down and stagnation. As director of the Evangelism and Church Development Program the author was in a unique position to ask the question: could the program of Natural Church Development (NCD) be used to reverse the situation? First the author established the parallels between the ecclesiology of Wesley and the theology of Natural Church Development. Then the author taught NCD principles and invited participating churches to engage in NCD assessments. The author reports the mixed results of the assessments and makes some observations about the strengths and limits to the application of NCD to the present state of the United Methodist churches Euro-Asia.
