WORD OF THE DAY - Sunday 30 August 2009



O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker. For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. (Psalm 95:6-7f)

Almighty God, our Maker, Redeemer and Friend ~ Thank you for the precious gift of life on this new Lord’s Day. Bless Christians around the world as they assemble in small and large meetings for the purpose of offering our worship. Please accept our praise as we honor Christ our Lord. Help those believers who must assemble in secret not to be afraid of anything that man can do. In Jesus name, Amen.

Today is the first Sunday that we begin to conduct our meetings in this new location. The director of this facility suggested that she will allow us to use a side door that opens directly to the stairs that lead up to the second floor area where our room is located. We will be allowed to place our sign above that door. Beginning next Lord's Day, we will use the big hall for worship and Bible study. This Sunday we assemble in our office/Bible study room. Therefore, we will likely have our usual faithful few. Yesterday, Galina and I worked on unpacking what we moved and straightening things up in preparation for this great day to honor Christ and the first day that the Church of Christ in Nikolaev meets in a public place. English language is in big demand here in this seaport city, so we have some plans in our mind about offering some free conversational English classes. In addition, we tell people about the wonderful free internet course offered http://www.worldenglishinstitute.org/.
Thank you for the many prayers regarding our work in the abundant Ukraine harvest field.
