God's blessings to all of you brothers and sisters of the PEI mission. I`d like to share with you with some cases of the mission in Ukraine.
As missionaries, we need to fulfill the commandment of Jesus Christ "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit..." (Mt.28:19).
In the first picture, I am with a family, mother Alina and her daughters Evelina and Nastia.
From 2012 till 2016 I with my granddaughters conducted evangelization in the kinder garden. I agreed with a headquarters of that kinder garden, and they gathered 4 groups of children into one hall where we had meeting. We sang psalms, told poems, shared the Gospel and prayed. During 5 years we performed about 10 such evangelization. Parents of children were invited on that meetings as well, and Alina, mother of these girls was there. When I met her there, I discussed with her about God and His love. Alina is a widow and brings up her daughters alone. Nastia attends our congregations about a year already. Alina and Evelina promised that they will go to the church next time with Nastia. They often invite me at their house and treat with a hot tea and I feel myself like at home.
In the second picture, I am with Vasyl, I met him close to his house. He is sick and he cannot walk. I asked him does he remember his grandmother Paraska, she was the first Christian in their village. And also your mother believed in 2000 and they diligently prayed for you and your sister. God heartfelt love you and your sister although she is a right hand of the orthodox priest. I encouraged him to read the Bible. He recognized that it is his fault that wife left him caused of his alcohol addict. He asked me to pray about his deliverance of this issue and so that he learn out God much more. We prayed together and he invited me to come to him again.
Please, pray for these people whom I met so that they come to Christ.
We parse the Bible with a church and learn the Proverbs.
May God bless all of you, our American brothers and sisters. We love you, we value you and pray for you. Thanks for everything that you do for us!
With love, pastor missionary, Vasily Preutesa
