"We greet you in the Love of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! Let us share with you some prayer requests for Mikhailowka:

1. A building repair need ~ $1000; 2. Supplies for children's Sunday school ~ $200.

In Mikhailowka village, Yampol area, Vinnitsa region, where we have our ministry, there is a little church congregation of ten mostly elderly people. But there is a good future - we have Sunday school with 32 kids, only two of them are from Christian families. (Photo shows Mikhailowka children at camp in 2010.)

Valentina, who does Bible lessons in Mikhailowka, says that children come and spend four to five hours after the morning worship service at Sunday school. They are so eager for this they would stay even longer. They recite many Bible verses, know many Bible stories, sing many Christian songs at home to their parents and grandparents. It is such a good testimony. There are many more kids who want to come to Sunday school, but their Orthodox parents don't allow them. Please pray for those kids and their parents!

The condition of the facilities in Mikhailowka is very bad (see the opening photo and on the right ). There is no safe place to lock up wood for heating. It disappears quickly. Wood or coal is the only way to make our building warm because there is no gas in Mikhailowka. One of the walls is falling down. We need to make a new foundation on that side and rebuild. It needs a new roof. Some doors need to be replaced and painted.

We keep these needs in our daily prayers! The children pray as well! We ask that you pray with us and trust that God will supply our needs to build His kingdom."
