Women pray from all over the world

Dear brothers and sisters, I greet you with love and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ!

I am grateful to God and always pray for you that you are a great support for us.

At the beginning of the month of November, the sisters from our church united with all the Baptist sisters from all over the world in fasting and prayer and prayed for the troubles and problems through which women from all over the world are going through. We also collected donations for this purpose. Our sisters gather for prayer once a day. week in every week. They pray for the needs and deeds of the church. We have one case in our church, where there is one sister, her name is Veronica, she alone is a believer in her family, where all family members are unbelievers. And now Veronica fell seriously ill and this the disease had serious consequences for her health - her mind became clouded. She became a burden for all unbelieving members of her family. A grave condition. And so our sisters united to help this family and even help them with finances. This is a very good testimony for this family. We pray for this family.

In the middle of this month, a pastor's conference was organized in Kiev, which was broadcast online. For the pastors of our region, the conference was organized in 2 places, in churches where there is Internet. These are in Tarasovtsy and in Chernivtsi. There were good biblical instructions and trainings on the topic: "The personality of the pastor, his vocations and the responsibility that he has in the ministry of the pastor" There were very good moments where we were spiritually edified.

At the end of the month we had one blessing of a child in our church, where we prayed, together with the church, for this family and their newborn child, handing it over in the hands of Almighty God.

Prayer Needs:

-Pray, together with us, for the unbelieving family where our sick sister Veronica, a member of our church, lives.

-For the people of our village who listen to the words of the Gospel, so that they seek God.

-For the youth and children of our church, so that they grow spiritually and that they are useful in God's Vineyard.

-For me and my family, for God to protect us from the Covid 19 Pandemic.

At the same time, I am very grateful to you for the help that we have on your part in our ministry and for your prayers that you raised before God for us.

We, too, pray for you and wish you God's Blessings and that these blessings accompany you every day of your life.

With love, your brother in Christ Mihai Hortopan and my family.

Gospel it the kindergarten

Dear brothers and sisters of the PIEI organization, we greet you with the grace and love of Jesus Christ!

I praise the Lord for miraculously taking care of us and blessing His work. Recently we had a funeral where the oldest sister of our church members died. This sister was a believer for over 70 years and was a good example for all of us, for neighbors and friends. We always have many unbelievers at funerals who listened to the Word of the Gospel. We pray for them that the Lord would test their hearts and give them repentance.

We have one sister in our church who works as a kindergarten teacher in our village. Already in several groups of the kindergarten, she did Bible lessons, where she showed children the most important truths about God that every child should know from an early age. At the end of the lesson, everyone , of these children, we received a gift. We will pray for this cause, for Sister Marina, so that the authorities do not prevent her from continuing these useful, Christian, Bible studies among these children. Through each business, we, as a church, wish more people from our village learned the way of Christ, the true way of life that can lead them to the Kingdom of God.

Prayer Needs:

1. Let's pray for our village that people seek the Lord.

2. For our church, so that every member of the church was active in the work that the Lord entrusted to them.

3. For me and our other preachers, so that we preach the gospel pure and in the power of the Holy Spirit.

But I am very grateful to you for being a great help and support for us in our ministry here. I wish the Lord to help you and take care of all your needs, to take care of you and always to protect you. We pray for you.

With love, your brother in Christ, Gortopan Mihai.

A day of thanksgiving

Dear brothers and sisters, I greet you with the love and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ. I praise the Lord for having a blessed time this month and a good occasion to proclaim the gospel to the people.

We celebrated, together with the church, a day of thanksgiving for the fruits of the earth with which the Lord blessed us this year. The Word of God was preached, hymns were sung to the Glory of the Lord, and youth and children from Sunday school had a rich program for glorifying God. Together we thanked God for His care that the Lord has for us, for the fruits that we received by His mercy. I pray that through such merciful deeds the Name of the Lord will be glorified and unbelievers seek the Lord.

We also had a funeral. One sister, a member of our church, died. She was the mother of 4 children of unbelievers. It remains for us to pray for those who survived and listened to the Word of God. So that the Lord would touch their hearts.

We had in our church the breaking of bread, a holiday dear for the children of God. We visited the sick and aged brothers and sisters. They were delighted that they had such an opportunity to remember the sufferings of Jesus Christ.

Prayer Needs:

-Let us pray for the youth and children with our church that the Lord will strengthen them even more in the work of God and that he will keep them from the evil one.

-For those unbelievers who heard the Word of God, so that the Lord would touch their hearts.

-For the ministers of the church so that they are a good example for others.

I am very grateful to you for continuing to be partners with us in the work of God. You are a good support and support for us. We wish you many blessings from the Lord in the future, and that the grace of God will always be with you.

With great love the Gortopan family.

Service to the Lord during pandemic

Dear brothers and sisters from the PIEI organization, I greet you with the love and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ. I always thank and praise the Lord for the fact that He strengthens and helps me so that I can work in His Field. And I also thank the Lord and pray for you that He will strengthen you in His grace, because working together with you we see a good result and feel the blessing of God in His ministry.

We live in a time when the COVID 19 pandemic is widespread in our country, which frightens, upsets and worries all people for their future. In our village, there are already many cases of deaths from this disease and people are wondering how and what will happen next, and what does the Bible say for our time? And when I have such an opportunity, I always tell these people about Christ and present them with the Holy Gospel, what the Word of God says about such situations and what God wants to tell us, all people. I pray that the Lord will give us His Grace and Wisdom in such moments of life.

We have services in the church every Sunday and are broadcasted online. We are glad that these services are watched and listened to by non-believers from our village. We pray for them.

Once a week, in our church, a Sunday school is held where we have new young teachers who lovingly teach the Word of God to children.

Every Saturday teenagers study the Word of God which is very useful and edifying for them.

I visited the sick and through the Word of God brought them encouragement and comfort.

Prayer Needs:

-Pray with us that the Lord will open the hearts of the people to whom I present the Gospel.

-That every member of our church is a good missionary during these difficult times for us.

-For our children, adolescents and youth, so that the Lord would give them love in Bible study and that they would be faithful to the Lord and a good example for the people around us.

-For me, so that the Lord would strengthen me even when I testify to people about Christ, so that the Spirit of God would give me the words I need.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being with us in our ministry in Ukraine. We also do not forget you and pray for you. We wish you live in unity with Christ and always so that you will work diligently in the Field of God.

With love to you, the Gortopan family.

1. During the past weeks, we had Sunday services. We gather for worship in the house of prayer, pray, glorify the Lord, who wonderfully takes care of His ministry and cares for every child of Him. At one service in the congregation, we had another blessing of a child from a large family who had a seventh child, whose son was named Elisha. We prayed, together with this family, for the child and handed it in the hands of Almighty God. Our children from Sunday school also had a congratulatory program for this family. We also broadcast our ministries online and many unbelievers watch and listen to our ministries. We pray that the Lord will test the hearts of unbelievers so that they will repent.
