In the above photo you see distribution of a shipment to a children’s home that has 70 children \u2013 these are orphans and children from problem families. We gave away new shoes, clothes, rice mixes, toys and holiday presents to the children.<\/p>\n
Dear brethren!<\/p>\n
Please find the December 2017 UKRAINE MISSIONS Newsletter. It is unreal that we have closed another year. 2017 has been marked by many amazing developments and successes for the Lord\u2019s work. THANK YOU for all you did to help the Lord\u2019s Cause.<\/p>\n
Here is a note I received from our brother Aniefiok in Uyo, Nigeria. We shipped a container to Aniefiok in September and they are struggling to get it released and distributed. \u00a0I think you will find his news really encouraging:<\/p>\n
\u201cPlease join us to celebrate the birth of a new child in God’s family. A young man we reached out to last week worshipped with us for the first time today. I had a private Bible study with him on Friday. He listened to the sermon I preached today with keen interest. When the song leader gave the song of invitation, he stood up before we reached the third line of the first stanza of the song. All could see the joy in his heart from the smile on his face as he confessed Jesus Christ as the son of God and the Saviour of the world. We gladly led him to the stream and got him baptized into Christ. Please keep him in your prayer that he will grow in the faith and join other Christian youths to be dedicated in serving the Lord. My wife and I and other Christians have a lot of work to do on him. In Christian service,\u00a0Aniefiok Akpan, Uyo, Nigeria\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n The New Year begins another blank page of your history in the involvement and advancement of the Lord\u2019s Cause.
