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.

Thank God for you, thank God for everything.

Be blessed.

With love to you: the Kioresko family.

Planting a church in Gostomel

Greetings brothers and sisters of the PIE mission. I am very grateful to my God, and my Lord, for His mercy and grace to me.

I thank God very much for you, brothers and sisters, USA, who help me with prayers and finances. With your prayers and resources, lately I have been able to preach the Word and help people in need of food and warmth.

Every two weeks I go with my brothers to the city of Gostomel, where 200 people are waiting for us to listen to the Word of God and receive a package of groceries. These people have never thought about God before, and now they tell me that we have brought God's love to them. In Gostomel, in a military camp, we plan to open a new missionary center, and later, the Church. This people is very attached to us, and we to them.

Last week, I, with my brother Valera Popov and some other brothers, visited a military hospital in the city of Chernivtsi, where we brought special resuscitation beds and fruit to the wounded soldiers. We visited each chamber, preached the word, and prayed for them as well. There are wounded, varying degrees of injury, and very open to God.

Recently, I preached at 2 funerals, the Word of God was preached to the people.

I visited 5 churches in our area and preached the Word to them.

At home, in our Church, we are preparing for the holiday of Christmas, the 25th, and for the new year.

I thank you for the $500 money that I received from you, I bought 1.5 tons of potatoes, we packed all this in bags, and took the borscht set to Gostomel. 3 carrots, 3 beets, 3 onions and potatoes, about 10 kg. People are very happy, it is worth seeing only their faces.

Prayer Needs:

- Pray for these people from Gostomel that they accept Jesus Christ, the salvation of the soul, not only of the body.

- Pray for me, for trips to them, the road is now hard winter, I need your support, both physical and spiritual.

- Pray that God will give me resources, that is, products, so that I can continue to help these people.

- Pray for my family that we remain faithful to God to the end, and ultimately in His Kingdom.

Be blessed for what you are doing for us.

With love to you: the Kioresko family.

Trips to the war cities

Peace be upon you, brothers and sisters of America, Romania and Ukraine, PIE missions... Glory to our Lord for this blessed time that God gives us.

And at this time, where our country is suffering at the hands of Russia, our God is taking exams from each of us. Namely, from us, from the Church, He waits and looks at how we will deal with those who are in great need. Thank God for his grace given to me to serve people, refugees here, with us, and people who returned home, in Irpin, Bucha, Borodyanka, and Gostomel.

Once every two weeks I go there, to these cities, where people have returned home, and they have nothing. In the city of Gostomel, I organized and conducted 4 evangelizations, where 120-150 hungry and cold people participated. They listen to the word of God, and receive the products that we buy, pack with the church of the village of Rokytne, and go to them. One Muslim woman started going to church in Irpin.

On the central square in Chernivtsi we bring food, preach the word, and feed, and one woman from Bucha, after several meetings, repented and was baptized. Glory to the Lord.

I preached the Word, and at the funeral, and this past Sunday, I preached in the village of Kotilevo, where our brother Igor Dzyadik invited me.

In Chernivtsi, there was a sisters' conference, where I had the honor, and the grace from the Lord, to preach at this meeting of sisters of the region. There were about 500 sisters.

In the family, we all serve the Lord, each one who has received from the Lord with his gift.

Pray for:

Our Church, for the Spiritual awakening of the Church and the village of Rakitnoe.

For the people from Borodyanka and Gostomel, to whom I preached the Word, so that they would accept the Lord.

For my filling with Power from God, so that He would give the word to preach to these needy people.

For my family to stay faithful to God forever.

For peace in our country, so that God stops the enemy and gives us peace.

For our army, soldiers and officers, so that they trust in God and ask for help from Him.

For the people of Ukraine to know and trust God.

All be blessed.

With love, the Kioresco family.

Social aid to refugees

Greetings dear brothers and sisters of the PIE mission. Writes for you, minister Gregory Kioresko.

I praise my God for His mercy and grace to me. Lately, I could once again and again be convinced that the Lord exists and remains faithful in everything.

Recently, the Lord helped to preach at 5 funeral services, where many people heard the word of God.

Together with br. Valery Popov, organized a meeting with families whose husbands or sons are at the front, and with servicemen who serve in Novoselitsa. It was a wonderful and blessed meeting. We preached the Word of God and prayed together and then gave them food bags.

Last week, my two brothers and I went to Gostomel, a city near Kyiv. There, the Russians bombed this city very heavily, and people are in great need of help, food and clothing. I preached to them, prayed for them, and distributed food packages, and walked with them from apartment to apartment, where they showed their destroyed apartments.

Yesterday, on September 29, the Church and I prepared food, cabbage rolls, buns, and fed 300 refugee people from different regions who arrived and live in Chernivtsi. I preached to them, prayed, and handed out dinner to them. They were very grateful to us.

I ask for prayer support for:

- These people who heard the word of God, in Borodyanka, Gostomel and Chernivtsi.

- So that the Lord gives strength to help more refugees and those people, in these cities where the war took place, they are at home, but there is nowhere to live, where everything is broken.

- For my family, for me, for wisdom in service.

I thank God for you, for your prayer and financial support. I pray for you, I love you.

The Kioresko family.

Funeral ministry

I greet you, dear brothers and sisters, with the love of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Writes for you, Grigory Kioresko.

I am grateful to my Lord for His mercy and grace that He has given me during this time.

During this time, we could preach the word of God, and show how much He loves us, to many refugees, along with sisters from the United States. It was a blessed time, both for us and for the refugees. They asked questions, talked about their grief, and thank God that He gave them comfort. We distributed food to them and prayed with them.

In the church with Borivtsi, ordained, and blessed and prayed for the brother, who took up the diaconal ministry. It was very beautiful, the choir sang very beautifully, and there was a blessed service.

Last Sunday I was at a wedding, where I held a wedding service for two young people. There were about 150 people, and there were a lot of unbelievers, and they listened to the sermon. I called to join the Church through repentance, and become the bride of the groom, Jesus, and when he comes, he will take his bride.

Thank God for everything. For the privilege of serving, thank God.

Tonight I'm going to Boryspil to bring food to the refugees. Pray that the Lord bless our trip.

Pray for the ministry here in the area.

For our country, pray that the Lord will stop the war.

Pray for me, for my family, to remain faithful to the end.

I thank the Lord for you, for support in prayer and material. Be blessed.

With love to you, the Kioresko family.

Feeding refuggees

Greetings with the love of our Lord Jesus Christ, brothers and sisters of America, Romania and Ukraine. Writes for you, minister and your brother, Gregory Kioresko.

I want to share the blessings that the Lord has given me during this period of time. Since there is a full-scale war going on in our country, God and my Father gave me the opportunity to serve refugees at the front, in those cities that were liberated, these are Bucha, Irpin, Chernihiv, Kharkov, Sumy, and right to the front, in the trenches, we sent food and body armor.

In our region, in almost every Church there are refugees, who have more and who have less, I try to help the pastors with everything they need. People came to us without anything, they need everything: food, clothes, shoes, medicines, and Christ comes first.

A week ago, one woman from the Sumy region repented in our Church, we had great joy.

We serve these people with the Church and show them Christ. Thank God for this opportunity.

In the center of the city of Chernivtsi, brothers and sisters organized a dinner for refugees. They provide bodily and spiritual food. It is a privilege for me to help, provide food and know that with my help, there are 3000-5000 people having dinner there, and all these people are listening to the word of God. Thank God.

Thank God for your prayers for us...

For the food you send, we can't help them without your help.

Thanks be to God for the Church, which has united and works to help poor people.

Thank you for your prayers for me, for my family and for my ministry.

Please continue to pray for peace in our country.

Pray for repentance and the spiritual growth of our Churches.

Pray for the repentance of the people of Ukraine.

I am grateful to the Lord for you, for spiritual and financial support.

Be blessed by God.

With love to you, the Kioresko family.

Humanitarian aid in our region

I greet with the love of Jesus Christ dear brothers and sisters, whom I always feel near in your prayers and in our needs.

Writes for you, minister of the Church of Christ, Gregory Kioresco.

I really thank our God for you, who pray for me and help in our difficult time, when there is a war in our country.

Thank God for the fact that He saves our land from bombing, and we can safely serve and worship Him. In our country, there is a very big trouble, but even in these troubles we see our Father, how he worries about us. I am grateful to you, brothers and sisters of the PIE mission, who collected and brought this humanitarian aid. They helped us a lot in serving others.

Thank you for mattresses, for clothes, for food and chemicals (soap, washing powder, shampoo, toothpaste and brushes), we distributed all this to our refugees.

We have a lot of refugees in our village, and in the Church we have 20 believing refugees, and in the village, 120, we help unbelievers, we give everything they need, in the Name of Jesus Christ, we invite them to the meeting, and they come and listen.

I am directly involved in humanitarian aid in our region, and in the villages where there are refugees, we help people and Churches. This is very hard work, and it takes a lot of time, but I thank God that they help me, first of all, brother Valera Popov. With him, we sent humanitarian aid to the cities: Chernihiv, and twice to Kyiv, and here on the spot we help refugees who come and ask for food, dress, and those who had no place to lie down, your mattresses were very on time, brother Valera, almost distributed everything. Also in these areas where we send humanitarian aid, we give new covenants. Also, our brothers from the mission help in the distribution of these products.

Now I am working on one project, and I pray to God to give money: 100 shelves of sausages, 100 loaves of bread, 100 packs of milk to make happy those who have not eaten for a long time, that is, send them to where they really need it, hungry people, children. It all costs 18500 UAH to put a smile on the face of 100 people. I want to do this at least once a week. Please pray for this project.

Pray for the war to end, for no more young people to die.

Pray for the brothers and sisters who left everything and came to us, so that the Lord would give us the strength to endure this grief.

Pray for us that we will be open to them, to help in whatever they need. For us, this is a serious test.

Pray for me, that the Lord would give me wisdom in this difficult service.

If you can, help in any way you can: food, mattresses, chemicals, clothes.

I thank you in advance, knowing that you will not stand aside, but will help.

Thank God and all blessings to you.

With love to you, the Kioresco family.

How will you rate yourself?

I greet you dear brothers and sisters in the Name of Jesus Christ. The minister Gregory Kioresko is writing for you.

With God's help, we lived for one more year, where we met both joys and sadness, illnesses, but not for a single second, the Lord did not leave us. The Lord was with us as promised.

Lately, I have visited many Churches in our area, where we held services for the election of ministers, the ordination of pastors and deacons.

I had the privilege of preaching at an evangelistic service in the church in Vyzhnitsa. There I preached the sermon 'How will you rate yourself?''. I am very grateful to God for the fact that four souls repented there.

In our Church, we celebrated Christmas on both December 25 and January 7. It was very good, children, youth and we adults thanked God for His coming to earth, and everyone praised Him.

With our Church, we started this year with a motto to ignite more in prayer. Colossians 4:2.

I thank God in every prayer for you, for your prayers and for your financial support. My prayer is that the Lord will never leave you and His blessings will be with you.

Prayer Needs:

Pray for me, for my ministry, I need a lot of strength, wisdom, patience, please pray.

Pray for our Church, for our children and youth.

Pray for my family, for health in my family, because in our hospitals, if you don’t have money, stay at home, that’s why we ask God for healing.

May God richly bless you.

With love to you, the Kioresco family.
