“Solomon your son will build my house and my courts, because I have chosen him to be my son” 1 Chronicles 28: 6
We are experiencing another round of blessings, and of course trials, that shows us that we are moving in the right direction by spreading and affirming Biblical truths.
During one of the services, a man came forward to repent, his wife was reconciled with the Lord a month ago. Heartbroken, he turned to Jesus and was asking for forgiveness of his sins and a desire to devote his life to Him. Today, he, along with his wife, attends classes for those who wish to get baptized.
Looking to the future, we are especially, can’t wait to the day when we can perform our services in the new and bigger building. Even though, since the foundation of the Word of Truth, we have greatly succeeded but today we are faced with a problem of continuing the construction.
We don’t have enough money to enter the building and begin to our services there. We need to erect the gables, insert windows and doors and then we can finally start heating the building.
After we complete this work, we will be to enter the new building and hold our services in there. Thank you for the prayers and support of our small church.
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!
Recently, new opportunities have opened up to participate in the lives of children with blood cancer. We have became participants in this process more than three years ago. We help children and parents along their hard journey. Many children recover and get cured, some do not, and we must be there for all of them. Children who are about to die are in pain and frightened but our care for them gives them strength, and most importantly, God’s love for them revealed through us, gives hope. This is very important for them, because for these children there is only today, tomorrow may not come.
Thank you for your prayers and your participation in our ministry. This week I was with a 6-year-old girl, her name is Dasha and her mother’s name is Nastya. After a operation on her the doctors found that her brain atrophied. Surgeons did not even tell her mother about this, for her not to lose hope. Now she will be transferred to a different department and they will try all the known methods to save the child. We spend a lot of time with this family and are participating in their lives.
It is our need to pray for this girl and to support this family financially. Nastya raises Dasha all alone. May God bless you to help them. Thank God for you!
The Lord prompted my heart to describe the life of Vladimir, he is 61 years old. We met him on Christmas Eve in 2017. We were on our way to the worship service, and suddenly we saw a man crawling along the road. We stopped and picked him up. He was crawling because he had lost both legs after a car accident in 2016. As we found out later, he was crawling to the railway, where he wanted to commit suicide. The Lord destroyed the plans of the enemy and he didn’t do it. In the accident, Vladimir not only lost his legs, but also all his documents were burned at the same time.
He comes from the Donetsk region and because of the conflict, everything is destroyed there, and the requests sent to the archives remain unanswered. This is how he lives – without legs, documents, and pension. All that remains is, to trust in the grace of the Lord and the sacrificial hearts of His children. Once every 2 months, we need to take him to a paid clinic for examinations and to pump up fluids that have been built up from the patella. Vladimir needs a wheelchair or protheses, in addition to this a monthly medicine expense. He needs bandages, ointments and pills but without documents, none of this can be obtained for free.
When he began to live with us, he was a very rude and was disappointed in people, refused to receive help and lived with the idea of dying. But today, Christ is changing his heart, and he is already beginning to invoke the Name of the Lord in prayers.
Vladimir and all 19 people living here (9 of them are disabled and many have similar stories) are very grateful for your participating in the life of the “Bethesda”.
Right now, three children are fighting for their lives. Doctors, parents – everyone asks one question – how can they help? What can they do? Two children from Abkhazia – Samwuel and Dato, and one girl from Krasnodar named Sasha. We cannot feel the pain they go through and for a long time, we have been going along with them and with their parents helping and supporting them. We bought the necessary medicines for Sasha. She and her mother came to Moscow. They are very grateful that we helped them pay tor the plane tickets.
Dato’s mother was forced to go to Turkey to buy imported medicine, as the domestic ones are ineffective. And here is what she wrote us: “I am very embarrassed, even ashamed in front of you … you have helped us so much.”
Samvel is a nine-year-old boy who steadily endures all the hardships associated with his illness. Doctors refuse to treat him. He has been assigned to only palliative care and that means the boy is dying. We believe in the miracle of God and will do everything so that he lives. Since he is in Abkhazia, it is very difficult to deliver medicines to him; they are not allowed to cross the border. He is already completely blind, does not get up and eats badly since he has lost all appetite.
Thank you for participating in the lives of these three little heroes, if you can help with prayers or financially, we would be very grateful.
Peace to you! On May 30th, my wife Eugenia and I celebrated our twentieth anniversary of marriage. Our son Arseny received a high school diploma with in-depth study of the English language. He ranked first in his class in his class.
We moved from our ministry apartment to our own and now need to make repairs there first.
In our church, “Father’s house”, we ordained Samuel to pastoral ministry, he is from Brazil and will work among the Portuguese-speaking population.
The foundation work for planting Churches in Khimki has begun – Please pray for the group of graduates of the Missionary School “Saved for Ministry”. At the end of June, they held a service for students in the city park. And the rest of the day they served to everybody with children playgrounds, sports activities, family counseling, masterclasses, and were building relationships with them.
In Maykop, I conducted a training on planting of new churches. One student asked me to meet with a young man, who knows his daughter, who went to study in to Moscow. After meeting him with him, we began to read the Scripture on the Internet together, since I had to go on a three-week trip. During my trip, he repented and believed, and on June 11th Eugene was baptized.
Please pray for the planting of churches in Rzhev, Krasnodar, Kaliningrad, Aleppo (Syria), Riga(Latvia). Pray for the meeting of the founders of the churches of the Father’s House movement in August 2019
I’m grateful for the prayers and participation in my ministry.
