God gave me another Church

Dear brothers and sisters, I greet you with the love of our Lord Jesus Christ. I address you, Gregory Kioresko. I thank God for a wonderful time to preach the Gospel. I thank the Lord for you, who are with us in prayer, in this spiritual struggle. I thank God for your financial support, and I can do His work, so that the Kingdom of God will expand. I thank God for peace and quiet over Bukovina, and for the fact that He uses me as His vessel to preach the Kingdom of God.

With God's help, I preached the Gospel and brought food to people in the city of Gostomel, where people joyfully listened to the Word and accepted food packages. There were 235 people the last time.

I preached to the brothers and sisters, the leaders of the children's ministry. I was invited to visit the ministers of the Suceava Baptist Union, and I had the opportunity to share with the pastors about Ukraine and everything that is being done here.

A month ago, God gave me another Church in the village of Kerstenci, so I ask you to pray that I could serve these Churches.

Pray that the Lord would give me wisdom, strength, in this work.

Pray for my family, so that we continue to remain faithful to God, in service, and in faith until the end.

Pray for our country, so that God would give us His peace.

Thank you again for everything you do for us.

God bless you.

Baptism

I greet you with the love of our Lord Jesus Christ, dear workers of the PIE mission.

With God's help, we have had a wonderful time this past time. I thank God for you, for your support in prayer and materially. My wish is that the Lord will bless you abundantly for everything you do.

This summer, we again had our brothers from America, and again had fellowship, served in churches, preached in our churches, and organized an event to receive glasses, and communicate with patients.

In the church of the village of Rakitnoye, we had holy water baptism. Sister Lyuba, my neighbor, was baptized. She was the only one from the family who repented, but her whole family visited the House of Prayer on the day of baptism.

Together with a team from our Church, we organized and held a daytime summer camp. It was very blessed, and 130 children heard the Word of God.

We also went to Gostomel, to these people in need, and brought them food, bread and buns, and a bag of plums. And the most important thing is that I had the privilege of preaching to them. 230 people once again listened attentively to the Word of God.

Prayer needs:

• For sister Lyuba, who was baptized, and for the salvation of her family.

• For the children who were in the camp and heard the Word of God.

• For the people of Gostomel, and for the opening of a new Church saved there in the military town, where we preached to these people and helped with food. Pray for their repentance.

• For me, so that the Lord would give wisdom, strength in service, and for my family so that they could help in service.

I thank everyone for your love for us, for our country, and pray for the people of Ukraine, so that God would give repentance and peace.

Be blessed.

With love to you, the Kioresko family.

Repentance in Hostomel city

Greetings dear brothers and sisters of the PIE mission. Grigory Kioresko writes for you.

Thank God, dear friends, for the good times that have passed, with our Lord, and under His control. I thank you all for your prayer and financial support. Without your prayers, I would not be able to do anything.

With God's help, my brothers and I collected food for 250 people and again went to Gostomel, where about 235 people gathered and listened carefully to the Word of God. At the end, one young woman came to me with various questions, we talked with her for about 15 minutes, and we helped her pray, the prayer of repentance. Her name is Tatyana. She promised that she would go every Sunday to the service that was held with these people in this military town.

God also blessed my brothers and I, we attended a meeting in Irpin, where all the ministers of the regions of Ukraine gathered. A lot of issues were resolved, because in our country, something new arises every day.

Last Sunday, I had a blessed time in the Church of the village of Ropcha. There the Church chose a new, young pastor, and we ordained him and blessed him for this ministry.

In the Church of Rokitnoe, we are preparing for baptism, in August we are planning to perform baptism on those who have believed.

Prayer Needs:

Brothers and sisters, pray for Tatiana, that God will always hold her in His hand.

For baptism in the village of Rakitnoye.

For my family, children and grandchildren, and they are going through some trials.

For peace in our country, for the awakening of the people of Ukraine.

For me, so that the Lord gives strength and wisdom to serve the people of God.

I pray and thank the Lord for you, dear ones.

Assistance to Gostomel

Greetings dear brothers and sisters in Christ. Writing for you, Grigory Kioresko.

I am very pleased to know that you are praying for us for all the ministry that is being conducted here in Ukraine. The war is on, it’s not clear what will happen? But we, the children of God, trust in our God, and thanks to your prayers and your help, we do everything possible so that more people learn about God.

Last week we again visited people in Gostomel. After the accident, this was the first meeting with them. I was afraid that they would run away, but they were really waiting, and we met, and they listened to the Word of God. There were about 240-250 people.

Two people received the Lord there and are preparing for baptism.

In the Church in the village of Rakitnoye, one sister received the Lord. The Church is very happy, and so is Heaven.

On Tuesday, I went to Moldova and preached at a funeral. There were a lot of people listening to the sermon.

We are preparing for baptism, we have not yet agreed on a date, but thank God for His mercy.

Please continue to pray for us, we need it.

For my family, for me, so that I never remain silent, but preach the Word.

Pray for me and the team. We want to go closer to the front line to feed the soldiers and officers, therefore, pray for us.

Once again I thank the Lord for you and finish writing.

Be blessed.

With love to you, the Kioresko family.

Visiting of Italy

I warmly greet you, brothers and sisters from the PIE mission. Minister Grigory Kioresko addresses you.

I am very grateful to our Father God for His grace to me, having so many relatives and close brothers and sisters who pray, support in prayer and financially. I thank God for you, dear ones.

By the grace of God, recently I have been able to preach in several churches in our region.

I had a meeting with ministers, shepherds of the Churches of the Kelmenetsky and Sokiryansky districts, preached and answered many questions from the ministers. We live in very difficult times, many ministers are under threat of mobilization.

I had the great grace to be with my children in Italy. I visited their churches where they all serve. I was very happy for my children, because, being far away, in a foreign country, they serve God and His Church. I haven't seen them for two years. There I preached in three churches where my children serve.

I also had a meeting with the ministers and pastors of the Baptist Association of Constanta (Romania) on Saturday the 24th, and on Sunday the 25th, I preached in three Churches. Thank God for His grace.

On January 17, I had an evangelization with the Mennonite brothers in our Church in the village of Rakitnoye. There were 18 unbelievers who heard the Word of God.

Prayer requests:

• Pray, brothers and sisters, for the people from Gostomel, due to the accident, I can’t go to them now, I want the Lord to keep them together so that they don’t fall apart.

• Pray for my family that we will remain faithful to God until the end.

• For the Church in the village Rakitnoe, there are friends who go to the meeting, but do not repent. Pray for them.

• Friends... The Lord put it on my heart to take another village where there are no believers, and go there and begin work to save these people. I don’t name the area, the village, but I pray, and I ask you too, pray, the Lord knows what kind of village this is.

• Pray for my health, after the accident, the pain in my chest does not go away.

Once again, thank you for helping, and praying, and for feeling constantly nearby.

Thank God for you.

With love to you, family Kioresko.

Christmas blessings

I greet you, dear brothers and sisters, co-workers with God and with us. We live blessedly, here in Bukovina, it is peaceful, quiet, no one bothers us to rest, and no one hinders us from serving the Church and God. Thank God for this time that He gives us, a very good time for preaching the Gospel.

With God's help, we still go to Gostomel, people gather there every Sunday, in the house of prayer. At the beginning of December, we visited them on Sunday, and everyone went into the house of prayer, and after that more people gathered in this house of prayer. On December 21, we were in Gostomel, and 230 people listened to the Word of God.

And also in the church of the village of Rakitnoye, one soul, my neighbor, repented. We were very happy to see how God works. I would never have believed that she would accept the Lord. I talked to her many times and everything seemed to be useless, but suddenly she came to our home, we prayed, and in the evening she came to Church and declared repentance.

On December 25, we celebrated the birth of Christ. The children served and rejoiced with us.

We continue to pray in Church every evening (since the beginning of the war, we have been in Church every day) and see how God answers our prayers. This year, 4 souls were added to the Church.

I thank the Lord for you, dear ones, for your prayers, for your open hearts for us, for your help. Thank God for what you exist, and together we are expanding the borders of the Kingdom of God.

Brothers and sisters continue to pray for us:

• For the people in Gostomel, who heard many sermons and the Word of God, and saw how God loves them, so that they decide to give their hearts to God by repenting.

• For our Church, we plan to hold a crusade in February, we will go from house to house and tell people about God.

• Pray for me that God will grant me wisdom in ministry and in the family.

• For my family, pray that each of the children will serve God to the end.

I thank God and you for everything. God bless you.

With love to you, the Kioresko family.

Baptism in Rokitne church

I greet you, brothers and sisters, with the love of the Lord Jesus Christ. I address you, servant of Jesus Christ, Gregory Kioresko.

Through the Lord's grace, we have a wonderful opportunity in Bukovina to preach, worship God, and proclaim to people about His love.

Today, more than ever, people feel God's love. There is a war in the country, but in our region it is calm, and no one is stopping us from working in His field.

I thank God for you, brothers, sisters, PIE USA missions, for being close to us in these difficult times for Ukraine, close in prayer, and financially. With your prayers, and resources, and God's help, we work to expand the Kingdom of God.

In the Church of Rakitnoe, we had great joy because of the baptism of three souls; it is very joyful for the Church when new souls join the Body of Christ.

A children's day camp was also held, where about 120 children were present, of which 80 were children of non-believers.

He also went to people in the city of Gostomel, and preached to 250 people; they also gather there every Sunday and hold services, worship, and pray together.

I also visited 12 area churches, where I ministered baptisms in two churches, and ordination services for diaconate or pastoral ministry.

Everything is fine in the family, the children praise the Lord, preach, and stand in the gap for Christ, and for the parents, for me as a father, this is very pleasant, thank God.

Once again, thank you for your prayers, and I ask you to continue to pray:

For me, so that the Lord gives wisdom and strength in ministry, for my family, so that they, together with me, remain faithful to Him to the end.

For the awakening of our Church. Rakitnoye, so that they can bring many more sinners to repentance.

Our prayer will be for you, so that God bless you, and so that you never get tired of His field.

Stay with God.

With love to you, the Kioresko family.

By the grace of God, we lived to see the summer, and we can say with confidence that God blessed us so much, the beautiful spring has passed, but so many blessings are remembered:

1. In our Church, 5 souls repented, of which 2 are young brothers, 17 years old. The Church joyfully, with tears of joy, received them.

2. Several times we went to Gostomel, Borodyanka. There, first of all, I preach the Word of God, the people who lived without God, now carefully listen to the sermon, and then we helped them with food, and they are happy to take spiritual and bodily food.

Among this people, in Gostomel, we organized meetings on Sundays, service, worship of God. With men, we organize a sauna, for communication, and fishing, and with women, all sorts of events are also held. We pray that there, God, will revive His Church, and I consider it a privilege from God to participate in this blessed project.

3. Three of these repentant souls, we are preparing for baptism. On September 3, we planned a baptism in the church of the village of Rakitnoe.

God took him to Himself

Greetings brothers and sisters, in the Name of Jesus Christ. Grigory Kioresko is addressing you.

Glory to our Lord, for His grace that gives us, and our country, which goes through hard times, and at the same time, His hand is felt.

Lately, God has shown his mercy and grace in ministry:

Every 2 weeks, my brothers and sisters from our church cook food and go to Gostomel to people who need spiritual and physical food. Thanks to the brothers from PIE Mission Romania who brought food and we were able to complete the packages and go. We bought 3 tons of potatoes and 1 ton of carrots and also took them to Gostomel. There, with God's help, another point for evangelism was opened. 25-30 people gather every Sunday, and when we come, 220 people come and listen to the word of God.

In our Church, Rokitne, the brother of my wife accepted the Lord, we had great joy, and because he was sick, he asked for baptism, and, on February 19, he accepted baptism. There was great joy, his wife Valentina also repented, and last Sunday, the Lord took him to him, and on Monday there was a funeral. There were a lot of people there and listened to the sermons.

Pray for his wife Valentina, she only repented and remained on her own, it is very difficult for her. Pray that she will continue in her faith.

Pray for the people in Gostomel, and that God would give the Word for them, and repentance.

Pray for me that the Lord would give wisdom and strength, strength in the word, and for my family, so that everyone would remain faithful to God to the end.

I thank God for you, for your prayers and support, and for what you are doing to help our people of Ukraine. Be blessed.

With love to you, the Kioresko family.

Visiting military hospital

Greetings brothers and sisters, all PIE mission staff. Kioresko Gregory writes for you, about all the blessings, already this year.

God gave us a blessed time, and we were free to work in His field. There is a war in the country, and in many cities, villages, the occupiers have closed houses of prayer, and pastors and believers are accused of collaborating with the enemy if they pray for our country, Ukraine.

We celebrated Christmas on December 25, and on January 7, we also gathered at the House of Prayer, but basically the whole holiday was on 25.

This year, 9 Jan. we gathered the children in the house of prayer, made a Christmas party for them, sang songs, listened to stories about the born Savior, and at the end, distributed gifts. It was a very blessed time, there were about 60 children.

City of Gostomel. This month I was 2 times, I visited people there, poor, but who are looking for God. With God's help, we opened a group there, they gave us a room, in one house where there was a pharmacy. The first service was on December 25, and then every Sunday, people gather there, stay with us, and listen to the Word of God. We hope that a new Church will open there from such people, once godless, military, and now they believe in God.

Also, a week ago, our Church in the village of Rakitnoe, we raised money, as best we could, I announced that we needed to go to the wounded guys, the soldiers in the hospital, and I asked if they wanted to buy a kilogram of tangerine ... and everyone said yes, and they gave money is not only per kilogram. We made 100 sets of fruit, and a lot of sweets and carried the soldiers. I also invited brother Valera Popov, and together we, and three other brothers, visited these guys. In every chamber they preached about God and prayed with them. Each of these soldiers testified how God saved them. It was a wonderful time for us. God bless.

I also participated in the ordination of a pastor, in the church of the city of Novoselitsa, and in other Churches in the region, participated in the sermon, and the election of pastors and deacons.

Also in my village I help poor people with food and clothes.

Brothers, sisters, I thank you very much for your financial and prayer support, I believe that we are doing this work together. Every day I thank God for you, and for His grace given to me, for the privilege of being His worker in His field. God bless.

Prayer Needs:

• Pray for the children who heard the word of God at Christmas.

• For a new group, and for a new Church in Gostomel, for those people, so that they give their lives to God.

• For me, so that I can be near them, in prayer, in word and with food.

• For the fact that God helped, to get the products necessary for them.

• Pray for these soldiers, from the hospital, that they recover, and that they do not forget God, but that they trust in him.

• Pray for me that God would give me wisdom in everything, in work in the Churches, and with those in need, so that God would keep both on the road, on trips, and in the family, and for the family, so that all those whom the Lord gave me remained faithful Him to the end. "I and my whole house, we will serve the Lord."

• Pray that the war ends soon, that the bloodshed and the shedding of tears end.

I am very grateful to you, brothers and sisters, for the products that the brothers from Romania, Timofey, Mike, brought us. Next week, I will go to Gostomel.
