Dear brothers and sisters from the PIEI organization, I greet you with the love and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ. I praise God that only by His grace the Lord has helped us to this place and miraculously cares for us.
1. We continue, together with the church, to pray and help those places in Ukraine where there are battles. This month, our volunteer brothers were in two cities of Ukraine: in Zaporozhye and in Kherson. Glory to God for the fact that He miraculously protected them both when they were away and during their stay in a place where it is very dangerous due to the arrival of constant missiles and drones, and the Lord protected their return home.
2. We had a funeral service in our church. There was an opportunity for us to preach the Gospel both at home before the funeral service and during the day when there was a funeral. There were a lot of unbelievers who listened attentively to the Word of God. 3. Together with the church, we had a financial donation for one poor man from our village who needed an eye operation. This operation was beyond his means, and so we helped him raise the necessary amount for this operation. We wish that these deeds would also speak of Christ's love to the people around us.
4. Thanksgiving:
- We thank God for good opportunities to preach the Gospel to people.
- We thank the Lord for protection and defense in the services in the Field of the Lord.
- We thank the Lord for you, dear brothers and sisters from the USA, our partners in evangelism here in Ukraine. For your prayers and for your material support for us, the servants of the Lord, where we are.
5. Prayer needs:
- Let us not stop praying for our country, for peace in Ukraine, because we expect in the end for the Lord to be glorified.
- Pray for those who heard the Word of the Gospel this month, that the Lord would test their hearts for repentance.
- Pray for me, that the Lord would strengthen me in this ministry that I serve people here.
On behalf of our family, we are grateful to you from the bottom of our hearts for everything you do for us and wish you joy and peace in Christ Jesus to accompany you every day and every hour of your life. We pray for you and wish you abundant blessings from our Lord.
With love to you, the Gortopan family.
