OUR MINISTRY PURCHASED BUILDING NUMBER 198 FOR CHURCH IN UKRAINE! |
|
There is a good group of saved people who come to the meetings. It is about 10 miles (15 kilometers from the front lines of the war zone between Ukraine and Russia). This church house which will be converted into a church, has already been secured. It’s cost is five thousand American dollars. By the time you receive this Good News report, they will have received this amount from our ministry. Folks like you, who stand with us in prayer and faith make it possible. Precious blessings of God to all of you. |

This house is in the center of Maksimilyanovka, is
big and in very good condition, has water and sewerage.
It has 5 rooms plus a bathroom, not counting the hall. The outside lot and area has room to add future construction for growth. This will make a total number of 198 buildings for churches we have purchased since the walls of communism have fallen in the former USSR. As you’ve stood with us over the years, you have made it possible. Everyone, that over the years has prayed and supported this ministry God has given Marge and me, has a part in this work and harvest. People just like you, have helped us to go into over 125 countries of the world, sharing the message God has given us through His Word. This means, on that last day when we stand before the Lord, we will share together in the rewards that God will give for faithfulness. God will not say to us on that last day, How much? How many? How great? How big? How magnificent? No, He will only ask how faithful we were with what He asked us to do. In other words, it is not how much we do, but how faithful we are in what He has called us to do. Faithfulness is greatness with the Lord. It is His measuring stick. I am sure that you, as we, one day trust to hear Him say to us, “Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.” Matthew 25:23 (KJV) Marge and I have tried for almost 59 years to be faithful in what God has asked and called us to do. This means that since February of 2000 until this present time, you have helped our ministry purchase a total of 198 buildings in the former USSR. Praise the Lord! This is not counting the the buildings in Africa, India and other countries. God knows how many and all Glory and Praise belongs to Him! We have not kept count of them. Our goal has been 300 buildings for the former USSR. None of these buildings are put in our names or the name of Abundant Life Crusades but rather in the name of the local church we purchased it for. Most of the local churches are churches we have planted or have helped plant through one of the workers that have gone through the 3-month Bible Training School. It is becoming more and more difficult to rent buildings to be used as churches as there is much opposition and it is not coming from the government. About 80-90 per cent of all churches planted since the wall came down, are in rental buildings. This is a precarious position for the Church. Having their own building will protect them from being expelled out of their location. Pray that God will enable us to purchase more buildings for these precious new believers. We are workers together with Christ and do appreciate all you have done to help us. |
