For the past year, we have been working in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. Just recently two teams visited us, and we went to kindergartens and boarding schools together! We had the question of where to place our missionary guests. My wife Irina and I lived in an apartment which was 45 square meters (484 sf) We had everything we needed. The inconvenience was that at 11 PM in the doors to our house get locked and open up only at 6 in the morning.
Recently, we and a team of missionaries returned from the ministry at 0:15 am, and we didn’t know where to spend the night. We were able to find a place, but we were also in situations when it was necessary to leave before 6 am and again we had an inconvenience.
The owners of the apartment are watching us, they see all the guests coming and going. We cannot organize a home group or sing a hymn together. The Lord himself helped us to and gave us a large, comfortable house. Rent is only $150 more expensive, but it does open up other opportunities for our ministry. It can host the church, the school and visitors but also it is our base of operation.
Thank you for your prayers and heartily ask you to support us so that the “Father’s House” will be open for ministry!
