I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent. (Luke 15:7 NIV) 
Сказываю вам, что так на небесах более радости будет об одном грешнике кающемся, нежели о девяноста девяти праведниках, не имеющих нужды в покаянии. (От Луки 15:7 Russian)
Almighty God, our Dear Father in Heaven ~ Thank you for the countless blessings that we receive on this new day as we watch expectantly for increasing evidence of your beneficence toward your people. Please hear our prayers for those who are wandering in the darkness of sin. Help them to realize the importance of acknowledging their sinful condition so that they can receive your grace and mercy as they obey Christ as Lord. We pray in Jesus name, Amen.
We had another wonderful day of Bible studies. Evgenia is a 26 year old sales agent in the food brokering business who has been studying with 
us for a little over a month. Last night during our study, Zhenya confessed her faith in Jesus Christ as the Son of God and expressed her desire to be baptized into Christ. She has been struggling for these past weeks about repentance, and she is now confident that she understands the cost of following Jesus. Today we begin to search for a place where we can conduct the baptism. We know of a few, but we must make the arrangements. We rejoice with the angels in Heaven over her decision to accept Jesus Christ as Lord by obeying His gospel! Later in the evening, we enjoyed another profitable Bible study with some of our regular attendees. Thank you for your faithful and fervent prayers about this 
evangelistic work in the harvest field of Ukraine.
