Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. (Luke 8:11)
Вот что значит притча сия: семя есть слово Божие; (От Луки 8:11 Russian)
Ось що означає ця притча: Зерно це Боже Слово. (Лука 8:11 Ukrainian)
Es pues ésta la parábola: La simiente es la palabra de Dios. (Lucas 8:11 Spanish)
Dear LORD God, our Heavenly Father ~ Thank you for the precious gift of life on this new day that abounds with fresh opportunities to sow the seed of the Kingdom of Christ so that souls may be saved. Give all who teach and preach the gospel a revival of faith and trust in the absolute power of your word to germinate in the hearts of men and women and produce Christians in people who were once far away from Christ. Grant us courage to seize every opportunity to help people have their own copy of the Scriptures, and be with us as we help them understand your message of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ who died for our sins and the sins of all people. In the precious name of Jesus we pray, Amen.
In spite of her struggle with this respiratory problem, Galina helped our first appointment understand an important lesson from the Bible. Katya is one of our very first English students who studies English using the Bible along with the WEI lessons. Galina arose this morning with the announcement that she only had two coughing attacks during the night. She thinks that will keep her from going to the doctor. She better not count on that. Our neighbor came over last night and provided information about a pulmonologist that she knows.
We had a good visit with our friend and student Katya who is a music teacher. Her knowledge of English and the Bible continues to grow.
Just as we were ending Katya's appointment, Elena the director of the facility where the church rents our space, dropped by for a meeting. We discussed the possibility of renting an adjacent office that has recently become vacant. We can use this now as an office, classroom, and Bible resource center. We are hopeful that she will accept our offer that she must present to the organization that oversees this property. She also gave us the rights to a large sign board that no one is using and the stanchions out in front of the building. This is a great opportunity for us to advertise the Church and our English classes using the Bible in the area of a busy public bus stop. Thank you very much for taking time to pray about this evangelistic effort in the country of Ukraine which was a part of the former Soviet Union.
