Renewed in the Spirit of your mind
One day a man returned into our fellowship who had been away from the Lord for many years. On his fourth or fifth service he took several Bibles in our library that were shuttered and needed some fresh up and brought them to the book repair shop. The next Sunday these Bibles were standing solid with renewed and repaired covers. Such attention and respect to God’s Word struck my heart. Some of these Bibles were new when he was doing his first steps in faith. Jesus teaches us that until we get to heaven, our journey on this earth is not finished. He gives a new beginning to a person who returns to him.
“For All Club”
We had a meeting in January with a Christmas theme. Several of the parents of our children came for the first time. It is a big step for us. These were heart-hardened people trying to steer clear from all Christians. Please remain in prayer for the hearts of our people that their hearts will soften more to be able to receive the truth of God’s Word.
Praise and Prayer Points
Our trip to West Asia region in December went well. We met with prospective leaders and taught them how they could use a house church method in their reaching of their nations for Christ. Please pray that those leaders continue to make disciples in an effective way.
We had a Christmas special service on January 7th here in Ufa. Yes, Christmas is celebrated here on a different date. The worship hall was full. Some of our friends came, mostly those with whom we maintain relationships. Pray for those who come so that they can make a decision to follow Jesus.
Friends and Family
Tomorrow we are going to resume our school year. As we do the home schooling, those assignments are becoming more and more complex. Sometimes it takes significant time for us to get prepared. Pray for the wise scheduling and stamina as we help them to be prepared. Thank you for your prayer and support. Thank you, Grace Church, Northville BC, Maryland Ave BC, and Richard Purnell, for making our trip possible! Happy New Year!
