Dear brothers and sisters from the USA - our partners in evangelism here in Ukraine, We greet you with the love and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Glory to God for His protection and His guard this month, although we are still in a difficult time of war, but our hope and our support is our Lord God. Now all our brothers and sisters trust in God and wait for help from God. Psalm 19:8-9 - Some boast in chariots, and some in horses, but we boast in the name of the Lord our God; they have faltered and fallen, but we have risen and stand upright.
Glory to God for everything, for His mercy to us, for helping us in serving in His Field.
1. Evangelism and distribution of packages of spring seeds
- We held a large evangelism in our church in the village of Nesvoya. Many people attended this evangelism, even from other neighboring villages. There were visiting brothers from the Khotyn district. The Word of God was preached in the Power of the Holy Spirit. After this evangelism, our visiting brothers distributed to each person present a package of different spring seeds for sowing the land. Everyone was very happy and praised God. We pray for those people who came for the first time to evangelism and heard the Word of God.
- I also distributed packages of seeds throughout the Novoselitsky district and simultaneously conducted evangelism in these churches. Many people gathered and they were grateful to God for the seeds and for preaching the Word of God.
2. Bible Institute
- At the Institute, we studied the book of the prophet Isaiah together with the students. 60 students studied this book. They all studied this book with love. They studied the first part of the book of the prophet Isaiah, chapters 1 through 36. At the end of these classes, all the students passed the exam.
After these lessons, I took the book of the prophet Isaiah to the church where I serve as a pastor, thank God that everyone enjoyed studying this book.
3. Visiting other churches
- I visited 2 more churches: the Church from the village of Stanivtsi and the church from the village of Mamalygi. I preached to them from the Gospel of Matthew, chapter 24. After these lessons, they all invited me to visit them again and teach them from other textbooks.
