VBS camp

Dear brothers and sisters of the PIEI organization, we greet you with the love and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ!

I praise God that through His grace and mercy we spent a wonderful month, where we saw how wonderfully God works.

1. In early July, a children's Christian day camp was organized at our church, where we saw the Lord's blessed Hands over this camp. Before lunch, almost 100 children came, and in the afternoon, 50 teenagers came. They had a wonderful time studying the Word of God, according to children's concepts, then there were various sports games and for lunch they were treated to delicious food. We are glad that we have very beautiful testimonies from the parents of these children. These parents are non-believers, but they are very grateful for such camps, because their children, after the camp, have become more obedient.

2. We prayed, together with the church, for those who fell away from the faith and, thank God, one man (his name is Sergey), for whom we prayed earnestly, repented and returned to God again. This is a joy for our entire church.

3.At the end of the month of July, a youth camp of our PIEI mission was held, where a team from the USA also took part. It was not easy for them, but seeing the result, in the end, we can confidently say that it is worth sacrificing so much effort and money for such a huge success in evangelism in our Ukraine. Evangelism with eyepieces also had a lot of success, where unbelieving people came, and to whom not only glasses were provided, but also the Word of God. Thank God for everything!

Gratitude:

-Thank God for this good opportunity through these camps to give the gospel to children, and through evangelism with eyepieces we were able to give the gospel to adults.

-We thank God for peace and tranquility in our region, where we can safely serve the Lord.

-Thank God for the team from the USA that served both in the camp and in our churches.

Prayer Needs:

-Pray, together with us, for those who have heard the Word of God in different circumstances, that they repent.

-Pray for one teenage girl, Amelia, who repented in the camp in Boyany, but her parents do not let her into the meeting.

-Keep praying for Ukraine so that the war ends and that the Lord brings us the long-awaited peace in the country.

On the part of my family, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts to the team from the USA who served us so diligently and donated themselves and their time to serve in the Field of God, here in Ukraine. You have been a role model for us. We are very grateful to you and wish from the bottom of our hearts that the Lord bless them and reward their work with abundant blessings.

With love to you, the Gortopan family.
