«He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved»

‭‭Mark‬ ‭16:16‬ ‭

Our constant readers, and those, who take an active part in our ministry, remember for sure two elderly ladies Nadya and Mariya, who had the operation on their eyes. Qualitative and well-done operation became the beginning of big changes - they could not only see partially again ( after being in complete darkness for many years Mariya is able to see with one eye, Nadya, by recognizing silhouettes, can walk alone), but they began to meditate about the life sense, about the destination of every person. In all things - in the way they were treated and also in the operation paid, they had seen something more than moral standards that  determined the people's behavior. This stimulated them to visit Bible study hours which were conducted by Evangelical Christians every Tuesday. Reading of the Bible, singing of Christians hymns and songs, homely conversations opened for grannies that One, Who stimulated people to behave with them so good and compassionate. Nadya and Mariya  confessed their sins and invited Jesus Christ to their hearts. They also stated the willingness to devote the life to God by taking the Holy Water Baptism.

A problem lies a little more in an economical plane ( although it plays not the last role ), how many in mentality of citizens of our country.

Dovbysh Nursing home daily routine

New faces among the residents

Visiting nursing homes earlier we saw the conditions in which people who had worked and lived all their lives for country prosperity. The living conditions were not always good, there were problems with medication, medical supervision, etc. We and our friends always tried to help in such occasions. We didn't think much when a chance appeared to take one of those homes under our guardianship. We experienced a lot of problems connected with doubts and distrust of local authorities but with God's help we went through all that.
