Peace of God dear brothers and sisters from the USA!

1.Thanks:

I thank God for His mercy to us, for the Lord always blesses me with health so that I can proclaim the Word of God even in this difficult time, when again the COVID 19 pandemic is raging with us. We are again gathering in small numbers and at home, in groups. This is because after a two-week meeting the churches in the Chernivtsi region, in large numbers, many church members fell ill.

One pastor of the village church Kriva, brother Ivan Miaun, fell ill and died, and his wife, sister Larisa, is still in the hospital. the village of Mamaliga. The church was quarantined. Therefore, the state again forbade us to get together in large groups. We pray for all the sick from our churches so that the Lord will heal them.

The patients were very happy and thanked God for the fact that they could take part, together with the Church, in the bread-breaking and remembering the death and suffering of Jesus Christ.

3. Lessons with candidates for baptism:

I’m doing my homework with young candidates for baptism. Alas, we don’t only know when we will complete this work of God because of a pandemic.

We pray that the Lord will help us in this.

4. Prayer needs:

-Pray for God's will to end this pandemic both for you and for us. We also pray about this constantly, so that we can spend at least one week in a Christian children's day camp.

He is accused of that accident and, being innocent, he is forced to pay for that damaged bus. Only God can help him."

-Pray for the Lord to stop this CAVID 19 pandemic.

Pray that at least he is not forced to pay, because he is already difficult.

-Pray for our church members and children not to get sick during our fellowship in the house of worship. Of course, we observe sanitary conditions, but let the Lord protect us from all bad. We also pray for you and bless you in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ! Heartfelt greetings from my family.

Fasting and prayer of all churches

Welcome dear brothers and sisters on the bright holiday of the Resurrection: Christ is Risen! Truly Risen!

1.Thanks:

I thank the Lord that He also blessed me this month and gave me health to work on His Field. I constantly thank God for you, my dears, that you always support in prayer and material life my family. May the Lord bless you and reward you a hundredfold; God bless you and your families.

2. Church service:

In the church, we are holding a ministry, still in small numbers due to the COVID 19 pandemic. Those who stay at home also hold services in small groups. This situation is unusual for us, but we are grateful to God that He never leaves us. Now the church has rallied even more and we agree on the phone when to pray at the same time so that the prayer is more effective. That is, that the Lord hears our call to Him and sends us peace and rest in the heart. And so that the church was ready to meet its bridegroom, Jesus Christ.

April 16, we joined the fasting and prayer of all our Christian churches from Ukraine. The theme of the prayer was that the Lord cleanse us and stop the Pandemic COVID 19. Our whole church at 19:30 in the evening, knelt down and at the same time cried out to the Lord for mercy. I also visited patients and had a grain refraction with them. He prayed for them and encouraged them.

On April 19, Easter was celebrated. Of course, also in small numbers at the meeting, but at home in groups they sang and praised the Lord the Risen and Our Deliverer. Many church members say that we must now learn to value every congregation in the church because we don’t know what the Lord will allow in our lives. Now everyone with tears in their eyes repent that many meetings were missed because of the little things in life, and now they want to get together, but not possible. We pray that the Lord will give us more time to hold meetings with the whole church.

3. Prayer needs:

-Pray for us that the Lord will help us in this difficult time. So that the love, faith and hope of Christ grows in our churches, despite the fact that we are in quarantine.

-To end the war in Ukraine.

-Pray for me that the Lord will give further health, so that I could continue to work in the field of the Lord.

We, together with my family and our church, pray for you, dear brothers and sisters from the USA, that the Lord will save you and your health, at this difficult time for all of us. Be blessed!

With love, Pascar Alex, pastor, the missionary of the village of Dynivtsi.
