I always strive to have a clear conscience toward God and men. Acts 24:16

Paul’s heart was set on Jerusalem. Even though he was called to be an apostle to the gentiles and did so well, he wanted to preach in the city of his fathers. He was aware of the dangers he might face there. He also knew that there would be religious people who would be willing to take an oath to kill him. And he was not mistaken. There were 40 of them as the book of Acts describes. Nevertheless, he decided to go and stand before the crowd of “his” people not matter what. That is the desire we need to have toward “our people.” Our relatives and friends and even our nation.

Workshop

A few weeks ago, we had workshop for our leaders. The atmosphere at the place was warm as we were seeking the Lord together. Our main goal was to encourage the leaders and cast the vision of self-reproducing house churches through the training at the workshop. One brother shared what the Lord is currently doing in his group. There were several people who came to the Lord in his region. And several more who were close to the Lord. So, could you please pray for those who came to the Lord in this village to grow and for those who are close to opening their heart to accept the salvation.

Summer Family Camp

With the great hope we do expect the upcoming camp in July. It is always a special time. We continue to pray though to the Lord to fulfill all of our needs for the camp. We still have a gap of $550 to cover.
Please pray that Christians that they will have peace and confidence in God’s sovereign care and power over them, refusing to be afraid no matter what happens.

Friends and Family

We want to thank you for praying for us amid the finals season. We truly see his blessings as we are going through it. Please continue to pray for Liliya’s father, for his healing and salvation.
Thank you again for your ongoing prayer for this land. Our greatest need this summer is prayer that moves the work of the Lord here!
