Greetings to you dear brothers and sisters with a bright holiday of the resurrection - Christ is Risen! Christ is truly risen!
Thanks to God that he is the Master of these circumstances, in which the whole world is at the moment, and shows to all the people of this world that he hopes for himself, for money, for kings, for developed countries, it makes no sense, but one must rely only on God which can protect against this virus from the pandemic COVID 19. God has allowed this virus in our lives to prepare us, His Church, to meet Him. That we all may order our lives, that we may live today and thank the Lord for everything.
1.Help to the needy:
This month, we, the Church of Christ, have helped all the elderly, the sick and the disabled. They have been continually giving them humanitarian aid, this ministry is being done by the youth of our church. Our PIEI UKRAINE mission also helped many disabled people and orphans in what they needed.
2. Church services:
I divided the church into small groups, and everyone is studying the Word of God, praying at the appointed time for all, and also studying the book of Jacob, which talks about the ordeal. Through this book, I want to comfort all members of our church.
3. Fasting and prayer:
On April 16, all churches in our Chernivtsi region organized a fasting and prayer. They prayed that the Lord would purify us with His Holy blood and have mercy on us and stop this pandemic and its effect on humans. I organized a fast and a prayer in the churches of the Novoselitsky district, and on April 16, 19:30, all members of the church of the Chernivtsi region bowed their knees at the same time and asked God for mercy for the Lord to deliver deliverance for His children.
4.Thanks:
-Thank God for the youth of all the churches helping the needy and not leaving them. This shows the unity of the Church of Christ.
-Thank God that, through these circumstances, the Lord has given us time to spend more time with our families, study the Word together and pray.
-Because the Lord has given us such a chance that we have time to prepare for the meeting with our Bridegroom-Jesus Christ.
Prayer needs:
-Pray that all of us, children of God, will go through these trials with joy.
- That all believers looked more on Christ than on this virus.
- Pray for those who have the disease, so that the Lord can heal them by His power,
-Pray for peace in Ukraine. And we pray for you brothers and sisters. We know that you are also experiencing some of the best times with this quarantine and with this pandemic COVID 19.
Thank you for always praying for us and helping us, and continuing to pray for us. May the Lord bless you and your families abundantly and give you a hundredfold. Accept from us Christian greetings.
With love to you, the family of Pavel and Larisa Petihachny.
