Our partners in Siberia have been very busy caring for their congregation, managing COVID-19 infections and recovery, doing outreaches, planting churches, and more. You might wonder how they manage so much. The answer is by the grace of God and the generosity and prayers of people like you. While we may not be able to join them in person, your prayers and financial support helps them to serve their community. You are an important part of every grocery bag given to a hungry family and every church planted. We get to celebrate and praise God for all the seeds planted and amazing stories like Vladimir’s.
Vladimir is a pastor and former alcoholic who found Jesus through a Teen Challenge program. After getting saved, he became a pastor in the same town where he was once known as the worst of the town’s many drunkards. As a pastor, he not only preached but also fed hungry people. He developed such an upstanding reputation that the mayor appointed him as his deputy. During the pandemic, when the mayor contracted COVID-19, Vladimir—the former town drunkard—served as mayor for over a month. This is truly something only God could do!
Thank you Times Square church for giving to The Lord.
