WORD OF THE DAY - Friday 30 October 2009


And Jesus said, “Let her alone; why do you trouble her? She has wrought a good work on me.” (Mark 14:6)

Но Иисус сказал: оставьте ее; что ее смущаете? Она доброе дело сделала для Меня. (От Марка 14:6 Russian)

O LORD, our God, our Strength and Mountain where we seek refuge ~ Thank you for the uplifting gift of new life on this day. Help us to rediscover the power of sacrificial love as overcome the influences of popular opinion and make our own loving sacrifice for Jesus our Glorious King and Savior. Give us courage as we follow the approved example of this woman at Bethany. In Jesus name we pray, Amen.

Our appointment yesterday with Yuri who comes from the country once or twice a week was canceled since he had some problems with some equipment. He was going to bring some members of his family so that I could acquaint them with our teachings. We hope that some of them will be able to come this Sunday. This gave us a chance for me to write some lesson outlines and then Galina finally had a little time to do some translating. In the evening we had excellent participation in our Thursday night Bible study. Today we will meet people at the House of Culture where the church meets and move some furniture that we are purchasing. A woman, who conducts some private English classes, is giving up her office in the building and she has some good chairs and a nice bookcase and table that we can put to good use. We agreed on a price with Natalie and we will have some men in the building that will help with the move. It is also another way to get to know more people. Thank you very much for your prayers and words of encouragement.
