Peace and grace to all missionaries of the PIEI mission.

We live in terrible times, people are moving away from God, no one is looking for God.

The other day I went into a pharmacy to buy medicine for a man who has been sick for a long time and I help him. I saw a saleswoman, my distant relative Olesya. We talked about war and life and she asked what God says about war, why everyone fights and kills each other. You are also a pastor and know God better.

I answered her from the Holy Scriptures. She asked about hell and life after death, as well as the difference between Orthodox and Baptists. I encouraged her to read the Word of God more and come to our church to know God more. I also prayed for her.

In the second photo, I saw mother Vera and daughter Albina on the road who were selling radishes. They told me about their son Gyordy who has kidney problems, he is over 50 years old, he needs new kidneys. They are Orthodox and observe all the holidays, but I asked what exactly do you celebrate on the day of the Virgin Mary, they answered that they do not know, it is just customary. I told them about Mary from the Bible. I prayed for them and invited them to church.

Pray for these families, for our villages where I serve.

I thank the PIE mission for all your help. God bless you all.

With love, pastor missionary, Vasile Preutesa
