By God’s grace we continued the ministry in Patrauti de Jos. We are glad to see how the work of the kingdom is growing.
At the beginning of the month, brother Gireada, some other brothers and I visited the region of Odesa, We helped our brother to change the roof of the church building in Gluboca. We worked very hard, many hours a day, but at the end we were happy to see the work that was done.
On August 7-12 we had a day camp for children. God helped us to be able to organize this camp only with our youth. I was very happy to see that those whom I trained are able now to serve others. We had about 50 children in the camp, and half of them came from Orthodox and Catholic backgrounds. I think this was the best camp that we had so far and we pray to God that the seed that has been sown in their hearts will bear fruit.
We had also some sad days. A sister from our church, who was 57, passed away after she has fought cancer for two years. Many nonbelievers from the village attended her funeral and the Word of God was preached powerfully by brother Ion Gireada. We have another brother, who is 60, fighting with the same illness. We try to be close to him and to encourage him in these hard times.
Moreover, during two Sundays I was invited to preach in Storojinet with the occasion of two baptism services. We are very grateful for all the resources that you offer us in order to continue the ministry here. Praise God!
God gave us grace to share the Gospel with many people on the street, especially young people that we met. We offered them also New Testaments. We even shared the Gospel with persons whom we took in our car as we drove towards the camp. This is the case with a lady who was very open. She promised to read the New Testament and then we will meet for discussions. We spread the Gospel also by visiting some families that we know. Our hope is that God is going to work in due time.
On August 21-24 brother Gireada, some other brothers and I went to the region of Transcarpatia
