We welcome you brothers and sisters. The coldest winter month January has passed. There were joyful and sad days. Sad because it is was very cold, and joyful because God is with us and we feel His support in everything. January began not only from frosts, but also from blessings. On January 1, there was a common Sunday service. The theme of it was "Blessings" Gen. 32:26. We also carried out God’s supper. On January 8, I preached on a theme: Psalm 83:9. " I Shall listen, what God " will tell. On January 22, I preached on a theme: " our circulation before God " In January, I carried out the analysis of the Bible on a theme:
Whether we should please God. Heb. 11:5-6. Youth services were carried out on a theme:
Pray for the following needs. There is a city Tartu (80 km from us), where is a traditional baptist church. In this church is, both elderly members of church, and youth. Recently they have had a serious problem with carrying out services. Younger generation wishes s different kind of service, and elderly people do not want anything to be changed. They do not want to sing using musical instruments, do not want the participation of children in church. Then they had question on the basis of new group. First, they wanted to join our church and to be a branch of our church. Then, I have explained, what a local church is like. They have decided to remain in the church and to carry out additional services on Sundays. We promised to help them in it. Please, pray for that church and for their beginnings to be blessed. Now we in church have a question of a baptising. 3 young brothers do not want to wait for summer. They want to be baptised earlier. We thank you for your prayers about our family. It is very pleasant for us to feel your prayers. It gives a big encouragement in our ministry. We thank you for the material support. It is very important for us. May God will bless you. Your brother Vladimir Pchelnikov. |
