Beginning in the early 1990s, NPC developed a close relationship with the Bethany (Vifania) Baptist Church in Belts, Moldova. NPC also developed a close relationship with the University Divitia Gratiae (UDG --University of the Riches of God's Grace,formerly the College of Theology and Education) in Chisinau beginning with the school's founding in 1994. Bethany Baptist has approximately the same size congregation as National Presbyterian. The church ministers to its members in many ways and has a very active evangelism program that reaches out to the city of Belts (180,000 population) and to many of the neighboring communities in the countryside.

The church grew so much in the 1990s that by 2002, five congregations developed from the original single congregation. One congregation used the original building, and another moved into a new, larger sanctuary completed in 2001. Both these congregations have services in Russian and Romanian on Sunday and also during the week. The other three new congregations are in towns farther away from Belts.

NPC has also had a variety of contacts with UDG, which was begun by one of Bethany's former pastors, Valeriu Ghiletchi. UDG is the first Protestant seminary in Moldova for pastors and lay leaders. The seminary offers three undergraduate programs--Pastoral Theology, Missions, and Social Work--and has about 135 full-time students at its Chisinau campus, plus several hundred part-time students in its extension programs in three Central Asian countries. The students nearly all of whom are on scholarship usually come from about ten former Communist countries. For more about the school, see http://www.uni-dg.md/en.

For many years, NPC focused its involvement with Moldova to deal with leadership training of young people, strengthening of young marriages, and outreach to teenagers. NPC's pursued that work in Moldova in conjunction with New Hope International, a ministry with a strong outreach among families and young people. New Hope is not currently active in Moldova, but NPC and New Hope's leaders have been considering how to re-invigorate that work with the possible assistance of the Moldova Baptist Union ( https://baptist.org.md/ro/).

Apart from its work with UDG, NPC has been very active in Moldova since 2008 with the Moldova Marriage Ministry, an effort with the Moldova Baptist Union (with other denominations where possible) and Alpha Ministries International in London to provide marriage enrichment to couples in Moldova. NPC funding for the ministry officially ceased in 2017, but members of the church individually have continued to support it. As of 2020, over 800 couples in both Romanian- and Russian-speaking communities have participated in the training. Marriage Ministry leaders continue to develop further the volunteer infrastructure of the course in both Romanian- and Russian-speaking churches and to develop follow-on ministries of Bible study and marriage enrichment small groups.
