Grace and peace to be you my friends, brothers and sisters! Fifteen months have passed since we left for Vietnam and last saw Kristina. 10 years ago, we met her grandfather Boris in Petrovka, and so our friendship continued all this time.
Just two days before our arrival, grandfather Boris had died. Entering their hut, I saw that the windowsill was packed with all kinds of medications, and as Lyudmila, her grandmother told us this was just part of the medicine he was taking. His sickness was severe.
Thank God that our trips to this family were not in vain. And just before starting our ministry in Vietnam, we came to Boris, and he turned to the Lord in prayer. He was lying and I remember how he cried before God, that he was a sinner, and that he had lived without God.
Kristina is already in the 10th grade. She wanted to go to college to become a culinary expert, but since she is not yet 18 years, she can’t make decisions on her own. She is a modest girl and she is silent when asked how we can help. Having examined the situation in the house, we purchased food for them, paid for lunch at the school, bought firewood for the house and stationery for the school. Kristina wholeheartedly thanks the Lord for His mercy and care for her. Grandmother Lyudmila continues to get drunk in her grief. Unfortunately, her life has not changed yet, but we pray and put her into God’s hands so that the Lord will bring His divine order in her life.
Dear friends, we thank you with all my heart for your sacrificial hearts and prayers for this family. May the Lord reward you. Be blessed.
