Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? (Romans 6:3 ESV)
Most Holy and Kind Father in Heaven ~ Thank you for showering us with blessings and challenges again on this new day. Help us to communicate to all people of the world the plain teaching about baptism that we find in the scripture. Give those who teach the Word the courage and wisdom not to tamper with the words of Christ and his apostles. In Jesus name, Amen.

Photo: On one of my first visits back to Magadan, Russia in 2006 when I was first allowed to get a visa. I went without Galina because we did not know for sure if I would be allowed to enter Russia after those 6 years of being denied a visa. It was a time of great joy for myself and the church to get to be together and study the Word. I was handicapped without my best helper, but somehow stumbled along and we had several baptisms with people that heard the Word. In just three days, we leave for Nikolaev, Ukraine. We will be there until October, and then we go out to Magadan. Your fervent prayers are very valuable to us. Galina is fighting a bad cold and we are hoping that this will go away before our flight on Thursday. Thank you for your constant encouragement for this work that is devoted to souls in Russia and Ukraine. The Russian language is one of the world's great languages and millions of people can now read their Bibles and learn God's will in their native tongue. We must act now while we have time and opportunity.
