2. A regional meeting for all teachers and leaders who serve children and adolescents was organized by the regional committee responsible for the ministry of children and adolescents. The topic of the meeting was “Constancy”. This meeting was attended by about 130 child workers. God allowed me to speak a word on the topic “Continuity in the ministry”… One brother after the sermon came up to me and said: “This word was for me, that's why I wanted to leave the ministry of children, but now I will continue…” Thank God!!! His word is Lively and effective !!!

4. This Sunday, October 3, we organized a post-camp meeting for all the children who were in the camp, but of course not everyone came, but we are happy for everyone who was a dream. For the Teens, the topic was "Who is God, and for the children, the topic was" How can I share the joy of the Gospel with others. " It was a blessed time, Thank God for this time !!!

-Pray for all those who heard the word of God and that they would turn to Him with repentance in faith.

Greetings!!!

Peace to you!! With God's help, we continue our service in the Novoselytsia Church, to the Lord and our neighbor.

Our children Eunice and Timofey also rested in this camp, for this we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your Spiritual and material help for this camp.

Alla and I came every evening to the camp and brought three teenagers who wanted to be with us at the evening worship program, they were from non-believing families. We communicated and prayed with them ... Eleven teenagers rested from Novoselitsy, five of them from non-believing families.

Nine children of them came to the prayer of repentance, and our son Timofey is 10 years old.

Praise God for this work through His word that was sown throughout the week.

Unbelieving parents courted him. the church and I often visited their home where we held small meetings. Since he did not see, his mother read him the Bible. He prayed for his parents to repent too. We continue to pray for the bottom because they heard the Word of God more than once and their son showed them a good example of the Christian life. Many of the relatives at this funeral also heard the Good News. We also pray for them that the Lord would have mercy on them and give them repentance.

3. God opened the doors to the Gospel in one of the schools and kindergarten. Allah, together with a group of teachers, were able to teach a Bible lesson for 2 days in 8th grade. The children were from grades 1-4, they listened attentively and actively answered questions. One of the children said that Jesus was a magician because he worked miracles, of course we corrected them by telling them the truth from the Gospel. The school principal and teachers, parents thanked for the words they heard, Christian literature and gifts that the children received. The teachers also received calendars, children's Bibles, New Testaments.

We also visited a kindergarten with the same program where there were 56 children in 6 groups. They heard the Good News about Jesus Christ at their level. Teachers, educators and nannies received calendars, children's Bibles and the New Testament as a gift. Brother Andrey Petihachny together with me served as transport, carried gifts, and handed out spiritual literature for children.

Pray further for all those who these days have heard the Word of God, both children and adults, to come to the knowledge of God.

Thank you for being with us, supporting our work, spiritually and materially. May God reward you for your sacrifice to us to spread the Gospel and build up the church.
