Our Ministry in Russia

A couple Sunday’s ago the weather was so nice we loaded everyone up in our “mini-bus” and drove out to the Tundra just outside of town to hold our Sunday service. Of course, service outside meant more than just worship and a sermon! We brought some hotdogs and marshmallows to roast and enjoyed each other's fellowship over a summer meal! Everyone had a good time and it was nice to enjoy such nice weather after several dreary months.

Maxim, the unbelieving husband of one of the sisters in our church also came out for a little bit and seemed to enjoy being with us. Maxim's presence was very encouraging for all of us and we hope to see more of him!

Below are pictures of our service out in the Tundra and pictures of our 5-Day club that we held in New Chaplino for the children that I had promised.

Here is our church group just before the sermon we held out in the Tundra.


Lately I have been privileged to give several sermons in Russian. We loaded everyone up in the minibus and held Sunday service outside in the Tundra since the weather was so nice. This is me preaching while enjoying the weather. I could definitely enjoy some more Sundays with weather like this!

These are the children we were blessed to work with in New Chaplino for the Children's Club!

This is Vicka with Katya. Katya is the girl who re-dedicated her life to Christ during the Children's Club! Please keep Katya in your prayers!

In between our ministry work, Vicka still has time to start homeschooling Emma. She is learning very fast and loves doing school with her Mom!
