Missionary activity on Bukovina along with the mission PIEI. God bless you all. We live in the very difficult days when we have a war in Ukraine.
It is bad that although there is so great religion freedom in Ukraine, people have not understood the truth. When the pandemic has come they did not come to God but they took masks and were afraid die. The same happened when God allowed this war but people don't come to Him even now.
In the first picture I met Alex from Vanchikauts village and he is 30. When he was 12 I took him and his friends on a bus to the camp in Boyan. When he met me he admitted that he cannot forget how it was good in that camp. I remember how they taught me to pray, I liked that songs and games, And I remember that sermons. That all are unforgettable moments of my life. Sometime I attend the church, I take my family with me. I feel how I'm drawn to God. I read the Bible and pray and I want to be closer to God. I hope God does nor forsake our family. We talked of repentance and I encouraged him to not late but hurry to come to Christ.
In the second picture I stopped on the way where they were selling grocery. I sat down close to them, Grisha abd Zhenia. We are old familiar, always when we meet they say you have your faith, but we have ours. We are not against your faith, so you don't be against ours. I told them that the Bible say There is only one God, one faith, and one baptism. Firstly a man have to learn that God exists, then to believe Him, and then accept the baptism. Then Grisha asked: Why our priests don't read this text from the Bible? Zhenia replied instead of me: They read only that the supervisor said them. It is theirs job. We talked about different unbiblical holidays, about cross and cross sign. I invited them to the church.
Prayer needs:
1. Please pray for Alex and his family may they come to Christ.
2. Pray for Grisha and Zhenia may they read the Bible and get to know Christ.
My family is really grateful to you for your prayers and your support. We pray for you, love you, appreciate you, and bless you.
With respect to you, missionary Vasiliy Preutesa.
