Consequences of the flood

Consequences after the flood from June 25, 2020, in Bukovina. -Dear brothers and sisters from the USA, our partners in evangelism in Ukraine, we want to inform you how events are developing after the great flood that began on June 25 this summer and the water flooded the gardens of our missionary brothers where all their harvest was lost. They are trying to do something, sow, transplant, but we do not know if it will turn out to grow until the fall. All the vegetables have already rotted. All the products already need to be bought on the market. We visited our missionaries who got into this flood and saw for ourselves how hard it is for them now. Our churches also joined in to help all people caught in this flood. Here are a couple of testimonies from three of our missionaries: Gortopan Mihai, Preutesa Vasily and the Martsinyuk family Vitaliy and Alina is our translator from the PIEI Ukraine mission.

1. Gortopan Mihai

Greetings from the Hortopan family. We turn to brothers and sisters partners from the PIEI organization with thanksgiving for your help and for supporting us in your prayers. It has been almost one month since our whole garden was flooded after June 25, this summer. After about 10 days, when the land dried up a little, we began to recycle this land and reseed it again. It was difficult. It was necessary to clean the land from the swamp and then with a walk-behind tractor dig up all the ground and prepare for sowing other crops such as radishes, dill and parsley, beans so that they could give birth before autumn. I also sowed corn as feed for our cow. The land is heavily cultivated because the land is very hard. There you can see in the photo that I cultivate the land with a walk-behind tractor, and Zina, my wife, is cultivating the cabbage that we planted after the flood, and the greens are already growing a little there. The previous harvest before the flood was all rotten and we threw away everything: carrots, potatoes, cabbage, beans, parsley and other crops. We already buy all these products on the market, because others simply will not have time to grow and ripen before the fall. Only little tomatoes have come to life, pepper and corn, but there will be no harvest. Everything withers and dries up. We try to work and re-sow everything, but what is lost cannot be returned back. Here the words of Scripture from the book of Job are very useful: -The Lord gave and the Lord took away, let the Name of the Lord be blessed! Job 1:21. We are very grateful to you that you are interested in us how we live after the flood and pray for us, help us - this is a great consolation for us that brings us joy in our hearts. We also love you and pray for you and for your God's work that you do helping others. We wish the Blessings of the Lord to be with you all Amen! With love to you the Hortopan family.

2. Vasiliy Preutesa

Greetings to brothers and sisters from America. Thank you for not staying indifferent to our problem. These pictures are from a couple of weeks after the flood. In different places where I have gardens of more than 70 acres, the harvest is gone. This swamp with a layer of 5 cm, which remained after the flood, stopped everything and begins to dry out. Thank you very much to everyone who helps us morally, prayerfully and financially. God bless you!

3. Martsinyuk family

Dear brothers and sisters,

We would like to express our thanks and gratitude to you for supporting us in our troubles that we have gone through this summer – the flood. Because of heavy rain last month, most of Ukrainian villages have been hit hard with severe floods. Our village has been heavily flooded too and our home, our back yard and garden that is a vital part of our home have also been severely flooded. The flood has caused great damage to us. All the vegetables and crops in the garden and fields have been spoilt. We ran out of our food supply, as our income much depends from the vegetables we grow in our gardens and our food supply comes from there. We cleaned all the mud from our front yard even tried to replant some potatoes (photo added). We trust God that He will take care of us, because He promised us in His word that and we will not lack anything.

Be blessed, Martsinyuk family

2.Funeral:

-In the village of Stalnivtsi, Chernivtsi region, I and Larisa (my wife) held the funeral of one elderly brother (brother Stefan). At this funeral there were 30 unbelievers and relatives of the deceased. I preached both at home and in the cemetery. Larisa and another sisters from this church served singing, glorifying the Lord.

3. Worship in small groups:

-I conduct classes with those people who can come to the meeting in 3 churches in order to strengthen them spiritually.

4.Meeting of missionaries of PIEI Ukraine mission:

-Yesterday, July 10, our missionaries of the PIEI Ukraine mission met in the house of prayer in the town of Novoselitsa, where the pastor of the church is brother Valery Popov. Each missionary brother gave a report on the work done for the first half of the year. Thank God that God preserves the lives of our missionaries and they work with full dedication in the Lord's Field. We had good communication, prayed together for each other, prayed for all the brothers and sisters from the United States who help us work here in Ukraine and praised God for giving us such partners in the gospel.

One pastor went away due virus

Peace of God to you brothers and sisters from the USA!

I am grateful to God because He helps us to preach the gospel in such a difficult time when all people are in fear of death and seek salvation from this virus. And we have this opportunity to tell them that the only way out is Christ Who has the power to help, save and comfort.

1.Bread refraction:

The Lord helped me make bread-making in the church of the village of Zhilovka, Chernivtsi region, where this little church had such a desire to hold this service with them and did not know how, because they were still in quarantine. I helped them to perform this service and, thank God All was well. All brothers and sisters, with tears in their eyes, thanked God for His protection and blessings. There was one woman (her name is Valentina) who was looking for the Lord, but has not yet decided to repent. We pray for her and her family (she has a husband and 2 adult sons).

2. The quarantine continues.

Parliament of Ukraine continued quarantine, in our Ukraine, until July 31, 2020, because our region, Chernivtsi, is very heavily attacked by this virus (CAVID Pandemic 19). There are many villages where almost half of the people fell ill with this virus. One pastor from Chernivtsi region (brother Vanya Miaun, 70 years old) went away from this virus forever. His wife (Larisa) is still in the hospital. We pray for her that the Lord will heal her. We also pray for many of our brothers and sisters who fell ill with this disease.

3.Funeral:

This morning, June 17, at 8 o’clock in the morning, my own older brother Mikhail Petihachny (70 years old) died. Larisa and I were at the pre-funeral service and helped there, comforting his son and his wife, as well as their grandchildren. I preached the Word at the funeral, and Larisa helped the choristers to sing, because the choristers come in small numbers due to quarantine. There were also unbelieving relatives and children. They listened to the Word of God and we pray for them that the Lord touches their hearts.

4. Social assistance:

The PIEI UKRAINE mission helped patients from the village of Nesvoi, Chernivtsi region, and many patients from other churches with money and humanitarian assistance.

Bukovina is flooded

Welcome, dear brothers and sisters from the United States.
As you know, we had a flood in Bukovina after many rains. The Prut River rose and water flooded many people's gardens, as well as water flooded their homes. Three of our missionaries also fell under this problem: Brother Gortopan Mihai, brother of Preute Vasilia and our translator of our mission PIEI UKRAINE-Martsinyuk Alina, her husband Vitaly and 5 of their children. We want to inform you about the situation with our missionaries. Sincerely yours Pavel and Larisa Petikhachny.

1. Greetings from the Gortopan family.
Dear brothers and sisters, our partners of the gospel, from the PIEI mission. We are very happy and grateful to God for knowing you and for working together in the Field of God. We are grateful to you for your material help and for praying for us.
Today, Sister Larisa Petikhachna called us and through her call we realized that you, brothers and sisters from the United States, are interested in how we are doing after the flood. This is very encouraging and comforting that there are brothers and sisters in Christ who understand the hardships and troubles in which we turned out.
On June 5, 2020, we were hit by a big flood, from the side of the Prut River, after many thunderstorms the dam broke somewhere in the Carpathians. Subsequently, water came to our entire garden and the entire crop disappeared from the garden and the crop in the greenhouse. The water did not go away and stood for so many days. As can be seen from the photo after 4 days of stagnant water, the whole crop rotted. In the garden, a swamp with silt to the knee. It all needs to be cleaned. For us, this test is very difficult. We used to collect cucumbers and tomatoes from the greenhouse every day and sell them at the market. That's how we kept our family. If we had to prepare food for the family, we all found it in our garden (onions, garlic, potatoes, various greens, cucumbers, tomatoes, cabbage), in short, everything we needed and now we were left with nothing. And in the market all vegetables have risen in price. Our basement was also full of water, now we have cleaned it. We are sending you a photo with the flood. There you can see another design. There our son Sergei bought a house next to our house and he also had water in the garden next to the house. This month he and his wife gave birth to a son. They named him Stas, so God gave us another grandson. Stas is already 3 weeks old. May the Lord bless this young family and protect it from all evil.
Through this brief description of our situation, we want you to receive sympathy and support from both brothers and sisters in Christ (1 Peter 3: 8).
Finally, be all unanimous, compassionate, brotherly, merciful, friendly, humble.
With love and great gratitude, your brothers and sisters in Christ are the Gortopan family.

2. Greetings from the Martsinyuk family.

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
We greet you in the name of our Jesus Christ. We are thankful to our Lord for the opportunity to serve our Lord and be at His disposal whenever He needs it. Our family has been working with PIEI for many years, especially at the Summer Camp in Ukraine. In the past week, most of Ukrainian villages have been hit hard with torrential rain and severe floods. Our village has been heavily flooded too and our home, our back yard and garden that is a vital part of our home have also been severely flooded. We as well as the majority of people who live there, our income much depends from the vegetables we grow in our gardens and our food supply comes from there, with barn animals and chickens and bees, country life. God has blessed us with 5 beautiful children and the flood has caused great damage to us. All the vegetables and crops in the garden and fields have been spoilt. My mother who is 82 lives with us too, because she is old, she needs special care. We ask you to pray for our family as well for the other families who suffered from the flood and we believe that God Who is our Father will take care of us wonderfully and we will not lack anything in winter until spring.
May God bless you and thank you for your prayer support. We pray for you too.

3. Greetings from the Preutesa family.

Peace to you brothers and sisters of the PIEI mission.
I`d like to tell you a little story about a flood in Ukraine. A quarter of my backyard which I have was fully flooded. It is about 15 acres of land. Praise the Lord my house and the front yard were not flooded. As you can see on these pictures flood was everywhere and there no alive corn. We had wheat and barley and other corn, but now we left with nothing.
We are grateful that mission PIEI prays about us and worries of us. We are brothers in Christ and are united with one Spirit in our troubles.  
We are thankful to you for your support for us. Thanks to it we can perform our mission in Ukraine.
God bless you, we pray about you! 

Church is opened again

I am grateful to God that He gives the necessary blessings in all circumstances of life, and we, the church of Christ, can testify the gospel to all people.

1. Church service:

We, the Church of Jesus Christ from the village of Nesvoy, Chernivtsi region, Ukraine, from May 24 began to gather together in the House of Prayer, to glorify Christ. Church members, both older and younger, joyfully thanked God for giving us the opportunity to again glorify the Name of Jesus Christ together. The state allowed us to get together, only set us the condition that we would comply with sanitary medical requirements, get together in small numbers, maintain distance and wear more masks. Our church members agree to get together already.

We also helped the church from the village of Zhilovka to get together in the House of Prayer. Now we are preparing to conduct, in these churches, the refraction. So will all the churches of the Novoseletsky district.

2.Home groups:

After we started to get together at the House of Prayer, everyone decided not to disband the small home groups where they had gathered together during the pandemic for almost 2 months, but they want to continue to come together in small groups to study the Word and prayer, just not while serving a church in the House of Prayer. I am very glad that all members of the church were kindled for prayer and for the glorification of Christ.

3. Bible studies online.

We, with the leaders of the Bible Institute, throughout Ukraine studied the Epistles of St. Paul to the Kolosians online for 10 days. It was wonderful to use this session time to study this beautiful book from the Bible, and for spiritual growth, Thank God!

4.Thanks:

- I thank God for the fact that in this difficult time of the pandemic, all believers were more kindled to glorify Christ and prayer.

-I thank God for helping us, the church of Christ, to help all the sick to plant their gardens.

5. Prayer needs:

-Pray for us so that from now on, when we get together, so that no one gets sick from the COVID 19 pandemic virus, otherwise our Prayer Houses will be closed again.

-Pray for those unbelievers who came to small group meetings to repent.

-Pray for all of us, 8 missionaries of the PIEI Ukraine mission, that we will be protected by God from all that is bad and have the strength to evangelize in this difficult time.

Please accept my heartfelt greetings from my family. Love you and pray for you.

With love, Pavel and Larisa Petihachny.

Gospel in home groups

I greet you with the love of Jesus Christ, dear brothers and sisters from the USA! I am grateful to God for sending His Son Jesus Christ to redeem us and give us His strength and protection in the gospel.

1.Mini Evangelism:

Church, the village of Nesvoia is divided into small groups. One group gathers in a house of worship, and the other in houses where each group has its own leader. Every Sunday, unbelieving people come to these groups who want to pray with us and want to praise the Lord through chants.

Testimony:

Coming to prayer in these groups, I realized that I had to pray to God through Jesus Christ so that God would hear my prayer. I realized that only Jesus Christ is the Mediator between God the Father and man. I so want the Lord to forgive me, bless and protect me and my family. Misha.

2.Funeral:

In the village of Nesvoia we had 2 funerals. Two brothers went to eternity: one is 63 years old and the other is 80 years old. We held this funeral with a small group of singers and with two preachers. Relatives of the dead were mostly unbelievers and heard the Word of God. We pray for them so that the Word of the Lord will reach the hearts of people and that they will repent.

3.Bread refraction:

In many churches, they performed bread-breaking, as follows: In the church they consecrated bread and wine with prayer, and then believers came in small groups at different times and took part in the bread-breaking. We pastor and deacon served our brothers and sisters. And then they visited the sick at home, where they also joyfully joined the church accepting the bread-breaking.

4.Thanks:

-We are grateful to God for helping us to perform our ministry in such circumstances.

-That the believers in our churches have not lost their love for Jesus and their zeal to serve him.

-For these trials through which the Lord leads us, His children.

With love, Pavel and Larisa Petihachny.

Help to the needy

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.

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.
