Street Evangelism in Kyiv, Ukraine

It was an unusually warm day the last Sunday in November. Only a few days ago it was cold and snowing. We did not expect such warm weather. But we appreciated God providing such a warm day. Sometimes people worry about how they will do Evangelism. They worry about not being good speakers, they worry about not having enough tools... and sometimes they even worry about the weather. But the Lord always tells us "Do not worry." Well, we also worried whether we chose a proper time for evangelism on that Sunday. We were not sure whether we would be able to stand in the cold weather. But the weather was brilliant. And there were many people coming to us and asking for literature. We talked to them and invited to church. And we were happy God warmed a cold day and reassured us once again of His mighty power and great love.

Now we are sure that even in the coldest winter day God will help us and warm us! We also pray that in this advent time that God warms our hearts with the sure message of the Nativity. We thank God for the opportunity to share the Gospel with the Ukrainian people!

We also thank all the brothers and sisters in the US for their generous support that helps us preach the Word in Ukraine! May God bless all of you! Slava Isusu Krystu!
