Peace and grace to all brothers of the mission PIEI, to Stef's family, and to all who support us in our ministry.
Even in that pandemic, with God`s help, I found people who want to know God. In this picture is Ivan Fedorenko. We are close to his house. We met there and started to talk. He is 68 years old. We are familiar for a long time and he said to me: It is so scary what is going on in the world. I explained to him that God loves people but they don`t love him. Everything is going in the world is in His control. People don`t pray, don`t want to know Him, and they are sunk in their sin. I talked with him for about an hour. I told him about grace and the court of God. Ye asked me why there are so many confessions, why do we not bow before icons, and why do we not wear a cross sign on our neck? I answered him with many verses from Bible. In the end, I prayed for him and his family. I invited him to the church and encouraged him to pray and to read the Bible.
In the second picture, I am in the family Zara in the Vanchekauts village. Her name is Maria and she is 72 and her son Nick is 40. But he rejected to make the picture with us. Nick told me that he has big trouble because his wife wants to divorce. What have I to do? I had read the Bible "Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate." (Mk.10:9) When we pray to Him and trust Him with our soul He resolves all our problems. Maria had attended the church before and she has three sons. "Seek the LORD while he may be found; call on him while he is near." Maria told me that she often prays and does not know to which church she needs to go. I replied to her "Just say to Jesus come to my heart and then you will realize and choose God`s path". We had a long spiritual conversation and then we prayed to God.
In the third picture, I am at the gas station and I talked with the assistant Yuriy Muntian when he had time. I asked him does he have the Bible and read it? Does he know that God loves him and wants to reconcile with you? I told him that I was young like him as well and I lived just for myself and then I realized that God loves me. Then he asked me why people so hate each other. I told him that without God we can not resolve any issues. Trust to God and pray to Him. Then I invited him to the church.
We have the parse of the Bible and the Psalms.
Please pray for Ivan Fedorenko, for Zara`s family, for Hick and Yuriy may God lead them to the true way.
Pray for my diseases may God bless my body.
Thank you for everything to Stef and Golston families for your support of my ministry.
With love to you my precious brothers in Christ, missionary Vasiliy Preutesa.
