The Cross and The Call

Because of the cross of Jesus Christ we have a future and a hope. The Bible says,
Whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Jesus commanded each of us to go into the world and make disciples of all nations
and to baptize them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

"If Jesus Christ be God and died for me than no sacrifice can be too great for me
 to make for him."  C.T. Studd

Balloons

This Sunday our mission team had another team meeting. Our meetings
are essential for several reasons. It allows us to fellowship and pray together.
We are constantly learning things that we can use and do on the trip.
This week was no exception. I love to be able to give out balloon animals
to the children on their last day of camp so we had a balloon lesson. It is
always fun watching adults learn to do this for the 1st time.

Calvary Russian Church

Today our team had the great opportunity to attend church
at Calvary Russian Church of Atlanta. We had a great time
observing and participating in a Russian Church service.
After church the team was able to taste some delicious
Russian cooking. We  met with Pastor Andrew Ryzhkov about
our upcoming trip to Belarus. Andrew will be with us on the trip
and we are counting on his knowledge and experience. Please
pray for the team as we leave 2 months from today. Please pray
for the people in the towns where we will be serving - Luninets
and Mikashevichy. Our team still needs $6000-$7000 to meet our
budget. Pray that God will supply the funds. We would
love to have money to buy the Good and Evil Russian Bible
Story books for each child that is in camp. They cost $10 each
but each book that we leave with a child can minister the gospel
to their entire family.
