Greetings to you brothers and sisters! The grace of God is above us, and we are among those who can help people in need. I want to send you greetings from Anastasia and her daughter Dasha. They are in difficult circumstances. Dasha was once again operated and now she is undergoing chemotherapy. There is currently no way to begin transplantation of the bone marrow. They have been in St. Petersburg for a long time and we pray that the disease will recede, her immune system will strengthen and an opportunity for transplantation will appear. Anastasia is being prepared for the procedure as a donor!
She especially needs our support. To see your daughter, who’s skull has already been opened for three times and practically loses her sight, is an unbearable test. The other day we visited them in the hospital, but we could only give them some medicines, food and personal items since they were not allowed to leave the room.
Anastasia understands that God controls everything, and greatly appreciates our participation in their fate. In addition to Dasha, two more of our children are waiting for a bone marrow transplant! Thank you for your help. Without you, we could not help these children!
We thank the Lord and you for the great opportunity to serve together for the glory of God. By His grace, we prepared the Christmas holiday for the children in Omsk. Last year, 652 children attended the play, not counting their parents. They all heard the Gospel and received gifts. These are children from poor families, people with disabilities and just unbelieving children. We are also planning a trip to Khakassia for Christmas with teenagers in the Omsk Region. In 3 villages we have Christmas plays where up to 120 children attend. The cost of one gift costs $ 8.00. Thank you for everybody who participates in this project every year!
Dear friends, I welcome you! We all prayed and participated in the fate of Sasha Starovoitova, a child whom our friends adopted at the age of 6 months. Three months later they discovered that he has cancer in both eyes. The situation was critical. Doctors said that he has no longer than one year to live, and the best that was promised was the removal of both eyes.
Eugene, his adoptive father called me and told with tears the story that Rita his wife had already lost two children. And that they will not survive this. I reassured him as best I could, and we began to pray and seek a way out. God led step by step. He answered prayers!
In Moscow, they were welcomed by a Specialist clinic. You have helped with prayers and finances. The Doctors managed to save one eye and the tumor started to shrink. Sasha is already two years old and will have an examination soon, and we pray that everything will be fine! God works miracles! Thank you, brothers and sisters!
There are people who are watching our ministry and are inspired by the mercy and their hearts are changing.
I want to convey greetings from Anastasia and Dasha, they are now in a clinic in St. Petersburg. Dasha had an operation on her head and a drainage was installed so that the fluid would come out, her condition is bad but stable at the moment. Dasha’s vision has fallen, and doctors are preparing her for a bone marrow transplant. Everything will depend on how the body copes with the load.
Her mother eagerly communicates with me, since she heard about God from me she is asking a lot of questions.
When I accompanied them to St. Petersburg we talked a lot, I gave her some financial support, and she cried and did not want to get out of the car. She says that she never has been treated that good. Brothers and sisters, these are words we live for. We also continue to care and pray for them. Thank you so much for your participation. Our ministry in Omsk continues to gain momentum and every week we visit children with leukemia and now we collect “boxes of courage” – these are toys that give children a consolation prize after painful procedures.
I am very grateful for your continues support. May God bless you!
The Lord pays special attention to widows and orphans. I already wrote about Anastasia and her daughter Dasha, and we have already done a lot for their health and life. Anastasia is grateful and wants to share some good news.
Dasha has acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and there were complications on the brain, she slowly began to die. Then she was operated several times and now the situation has stabilized, and she is stable enough for a trip to St. Petersburg, to a hospital specializing in bone marrow transplantation.
The Tickets were purchased for August 27th. When possible, we will accompany them in St. Petersburg, Anastasia is raising a child alone and there is no one to help her. I contacted my brothers in St. Petersburg to help them more effectively. This is not the first child who is going from Omsk to St. Petersburg to undergo a complicated operation and we already have experience with this.
God made a miracle, and Dasha was able to advance in healing, but she is still at the beginning of the journey and really needs our prayers and financial help. I especially ask you to pray for her mother, the pain she is experiencing is impossible to convey in words.
Any mother in her situation live from day to day, and they are very afraid to do something wrong, because there may be not be a chance to fix it. Thank you for participating in this ministry. For me, being with these families has become a part of my life.
Greetings, brothers and sisters! I want to express my gratitude for your desire to help children. Dasha, about whom I already previously wrote, is in serious condition, she had another operation on her head, nobody is allowed to see her except for her mother. Therefore, we take care of the girl through her mother Anastasia. She in a serious emotional state, she can’t control her emotions even when being with the doctors. It is very difficult to imagine how a mother is feeling, having the only child being between life and death.
Anastasia is thankful for the help. She does not understand how strangers can be so compassionate. The father of the child is indifferent, he has no contact with Anastasia. He was the only support, but a month ago he left them. And now strangers became closer to them than their own relatives. Jesus is telling the truth when talking about the good Samaritan, that the neighbor is the one who helps.
Every week we go to the oncology clinic and help children cope with their difficult diagnosis. Parents of such children are no less in serious condition. They are desperate and need both prayers and material support.
Thank you for participating in this ministry. Without you, we could not help so many in need!
