Greetings to you, brothers and sisters! Thank God for the opportunity to be part of the spread of God’s 
kingdom in the Belarusian land! In February, we actively visited the Willian boarding school. This month we talked about the importance of choosing friends, that it depends on this decision, which will be with our lives. We noticed that the guys often don’t know how to express their opinions, so to defend it and we have to explain 
and learn that it is very important! We want to break the statistics, which suggests that every fourth orphan child is in prison. “Right friends help you to succeed, and not quickly earning through theft” – we said. There are such a problem with girls who are simply manipulated by their girlfriends, which is why the latter will not take place at all and receive professions that were simply imposed on their more influential girlfriends. After all, by communicating one on one, the guys themselves talk about this problem. Also, we talked about 14 truths of love on Saint Valentine’s Day. We revealed, on how young people are 
being built and what kind of love phases are being built. We talked about five phases: And the first of them – the baby loves himself. And we said: “Guys, take care of such a relationship, because when the person loves only himself, he cannot respect, appreciate and maintain his half and these relationships always bring pain.” The second phase is parental love. This is when the girl wants only one thing – to be the center of attention and if something goes wrong, she stopped
admiring and she is not in the center of attention, the relationship is the end. We wanted to show it that dad is spinning near your daughter, but sometimes the guy or a girl is not a parent, but just a person who also expects response actions. The third phase is friendly love. We said that in this relationship a guy or a girl expects that these relationship will bring me and how personally I will look with this person, as well as how everyone will envy us. The fourth phase is youthful love. This is a stage of trial and error! We start looking 
for friends and understand who we like, and who does not. Fifth phase – Mature love. This is when you think about how to help your friend become better. But during the meeting, the guys say that real love is a romance, if it is, it means that there is love. Someone said that real love is when you have sex. And then we began to explain that love are often confused with lust and sex. But all this is not love! In the films, everything looks like this, but everything is different in life! Young girls in their 14 or 15 years learn about their pregnancy, and guys throw them. So, what is the love? Many questions were interesting observations. Thank God that we could openly talk about it! We also talked about the wonders of Jesus, about the fact that faith is stronger than doubts. On the 
example of the daughter of Jair, we talked about the fact that there will always be people who will put our faith in doubt. And the guys began to tell how they are fusing them that they are believers. Also, not to doubt, have the right friends who will not destroy faith and part with those who always doubt and does not believe in anything. After all, such people themselves do not achieve anything in life and only judge everyone. And the last thing we discussed are the words of Jesus: “Do not be afraid! Just believe! ” In the last visit, the guys talked a lot about Ukraine, about what worry about people and that the war did not throw in Belarus. We were generally banned to pray in Vileyka, but the guys asked to pray that God would save Ukraine, Russia, as well as Belarus. Hard times unite! Thanks for your prayers! Be blessed!
Hello, dear friends!
Despite any circumstances, God still gives us a wonderful opportunity to visit the children in the Belynichi orphanage! It is very inspiring that the administration of the orphanage is very open and let the children hear about God again and again! Of course, due to covid-2019 we have to wear face masks and keep the distance. This means that we hug the children less often but, despite this, our relationships get stronger. Both the children and we have reconsidered our values seriously and now we are using any opportunity just to be together and speak with them about God.
This month we were talking about Jesus Christ’s miracles. We were discussing such topics as ‘Friendship’ and ‘Faith and Doubt’ alongside. Sometimes, the children are so excited to see our team and they want our attention so much that the meeting place gets very noisy as they are full of emotions. Anyway, when the time for the Bible lesson comes, they calm down and listen to what we tell them. My greatest joy is to see that they have questions and try to make their own conclusions after listening to us!
At the moment there are more little kids in the orphanage. We are dreaming of a day when we can have separate meetings for them and will be able to serve them individually and give Bible lessons on their level. Now we gather the children of all ages together because of the limit on the number of visitors, that’s why we will be glad if you support us in your prayers for this problem!
Greetings, brothers and sisters! February is a special month, so many things are going on in Belarus now! We thank everyone who prays for peace and asks God to stop the war!
This month we had the opportunity to serve at the Rudensky orphanage. When we come to the guys we meet not just children running out to meet us, but the guys who have become a part of our lives. More and more guys are coming to our meetings, the guys who used to ignore them. Bozhena is one of them. I asked this girl once why she decided to come to our meetings. She replied that she didn’t understand everything before and therefore it wasn’t really interesting. But now our meetings become more and more enteresting for her and things that we discuss become more clear as well. “I like that I am not alone. I feel accepted here,” — once she said. This month we talked about friendship. Such a simple concept but how difficult it can be to trust somebody or to believe that you can be accepted. Every child wants to have friends but not everyone knows how to do that. Nastya was talking about four friends who brought a paralyzed man to Jesus. She asked the question: “Guys, what was special about that paralyzed man? Why did he have friends?”
Many children in the orphanages worry that they have no
friends because of their appearance. But the point is not the appearance but your heart, are you ready to have friends and to open your heart to be friendly? In addition to friendship Nastya told the story about the healing of a paralyzed man, who was brought by his friends to Jesus through the roof. That was the continuation of the series of topics about the miracles of Jesus Christ. We talked about the miracle (what it is) and how it differs from magic or illusion. I like that our topics are very relevant. Often they reveal the lie that the devil put in the children’s mind, calling these things “help”. The consequences of this lie are much more destructive than it seems at first glance! Ilya at one of the meetings talked about the miraculous satiation of 5,000 people. He asked the guys a question: “If you needed a miracle now and Jesus did it, would you believe it?” All the guys answered: “Yes, we would believe it!”Ilya said that to notice all the good things that God does in our lives and thank Him for that is very important . After the meeting the guys came up and told us about different situations they were going through. They realized that certain situations were not coincidences but God’s help. It is so encouraging to understand that the guys on their own have come to such conclusion!
Also during this month we talked about faith. We raised the question about faith. “Faith or doubt? Which is stronger?” And opinions divided. Some shouted that faith is stronger but others kept saying that doubts are stronger than faith. It’s always nice to see that the guys have their own perspective on things and can substantiate it. We talked about faith and that it is formed in childhood. It is in childhood when we start to trust and believe. We also said that the family where the child is growing defines what this child will believe in. In our case the caregivers form children’s faith because they tell them what is true and what is wrong. And if he or she says that faith in God is the best thing that God gives to us, in this case faith will bring hope and the whole group of children will be believers! But if guys are under the influence of a teacher or a caregiver who does not believe then it will be much harder for such guys to believe in God. We based the lesson about faith on the story about Jairus and his daughter. Faith always suppress doubts and on the contrary doubts try to choke the faith off. But in this story Jesus says something very important: – “Do not be afraid! Only believe!”. In many cases that’s all a person needs to know. Doubts may come but we should not be afraid instead we should believe that God will help. And sometimes we need to separate ourselves from the
people who laughs at us or pushes us to do something wrong. But there is great joy even in such situation when we have to make efforts to protect the seeds of faith in the soil of our hearts. Joy and peace floods our hearts when we came through such season. I really like that the guys strive to implement the things they’ve heard in their lives!
Thank you very much, friends, for your prayers! We believe that the word of God will give abundant fruit in the lives of children! Pray that God would continue to help children open their hearts and make the right decisions!
In January: “Christmas action for disabled children”
Posted: January 31, 2022 by Dzmitry Nachyna in UncategorizedThe beginning of this year was productive. My team and I prayed that God
would open the doors for 
evangelization and that God would answer our prayers throughout the month. At the beginning of the year, we visited many villages where there were meetings with performances and gifts. Usually, many children from villages end up in boarding schools and orphanages. We decided to prevent that. The villages of Belarus look very poor, but it is there that children and parents are very open to the gospel. Hopelessness, unemployment, drunkenness: here are the frequent “companions” of the villagers. Usually, after arriving, we showed a performance showing that there is hope even in the darkest of times. It was said that Christ was born and the birth of Jesus brought peace into the world. There were brief testimonies of people how God helps in life. It is clear from what we saw that the people are not spoiled by such ideas, and the children enthusiastically looked at the heroes of the Christmas story.
After that, we talked about how God gave Jesus Christ to the world, and that he brought salvation to people. Which is the most valuable gift. But we also want to give a gift that will be a good reminder for the guys about this event. It was so nice to see how the guys received gifts! There were cheers from the guys. And some children couldn’t wait and decided to open the gifts to see what was in the box. Parents, as well as grandmothers who raise children, came and thanked us, saying: “We are so poor that we save on everything”. They thanked me for the mug that was in the gift, for toothpaste, brushes, socks, and for every toy. The children were going home, and, seeing off the guys, we heard them retell the meaning of the story and how they were glad to learn about the true meaning of Christmas.
Also this month we visited boarding schools. Rudensk became the first boarding school where we arrived. We have talked a lot about the life of Jesus Christ this month. And that’s why, when we showed the performance, we saw that many guys knew the right answers. I like to see how children not only remember Jesus Christ but also try to put their faith into practice. They pray and it’s nice to hear what they say to God in simplicity. For the children, the great evidence was that despite the wind and snow, we come to them. “You probably love us so much that you come even in bad weather”: the guys said.
Just recently, we recalled a story about a paralyzed man who was brought by four friends and Jesus healed him. In the beginning, the friends could not carry him through the doors, but only after disassembling the roof could they carry him, and seeing the faith of friends, God healed a friend. Difficulties teach us to be persistent in achieving our goals.
Also this month we were in Belynichi. A special place where we are always expected. There are many children with Down’s syndrome living there now. When we arrived, the children ran out in sneakers in the snow to meet us. “We’ve been waiting for you guys!” the kids were shouting and hugging us. Despite all the pathology of the children’s health, we see how God blesses their memory. They 
remember Bible stories very well, and going through the topics of the life of Jesus Christ, we see that children shout out answers. And it’s also interesting to watch the educators who come to meetings with the guys. We see that they are also changing, it can be seen from the reflections that they voice. Thank God for reaching their hearts. We were talking about the healing of two blind people. Such stories especially touch children in Belynichi, they know how to sympathize with the characters of the Bible, as they themselves need a miracle. It is very nice to see the joy of the guys when we say that Jesus healed two blind people or fed 5,000 people. This is joy and surprise, which is difficult to describe, you can look at it forever. That’s why we buy children’s Bibles so that children can read and look at bright pictures in their free time, telling stories that Jesus did.
Greetings, dear brothers and sisters! We thank everyone who prayed for our ministry and for the orphans! 
We are glad that together with you and God we can expand the kingdom of God by carrying the gospel!
In December, we had the opportunity to visit the Rudensky boarding school 5 times. If you look at the photos, you will notice children who used to be in elementary school and did not attend our meetings. We went to their groups and held Bible meetings
there. But time goes by and now these guys have matured and they are allowed to come to our general meetings. We are glad that we once laid the foundation and now we see the fruits! This month we gave more opportunities to children to pray and participate in joint prayers. What are the children asking for? “Dear God, help me win in competitions, and also give me understanding in school subjects in order to study better.” “Lord, I ask you to take me home for the winter holidays.” “Lord, help the virus to leave our country.” “Thank you for being here and already helping us.” Simple words and thoughts about the urgent. But 
these are the first steps, and they please us. We see how children feel safe when they come to meetings. We can reflect with the guys about the lives of biblical heroes. Recently we talked about Esther and how she conquered her fears! We also remembered Ruth and her loyalty to Naomi, as well as how Boaz was a relative of the redeemer. If it wasn’t for Boaz, then most likely they would have lived in poverty and died quickly. When we talked about Boaz, we said that he saved the lives of Ruth and Naomi, but faith in Christ gives us redemption and salvation. Usually, there 
are a lot of questions after such serious topics. For example: “What should the people do to stop the famine (this story is about Naomi and her husband)”? I replied that if the people repented for their sins, there would be no famine at all. So in our life, we think if we move somewhere, our personal life will change, but life depends the relationship with God only! Boaz paid for the land to redeem it, as well as for Naomi’s debts, and Jesus Christ redeemed us from our sins. We also talked to the guys about Jonah. They talked about how the disobedience of one person could lead to the death of an entire city. And how God is interested in saving unbelieving cruel people. Then we discussed that we, as people, decide for ourselves who to 
help and who not. But God shows his heart, and it is full of love. We didn’t choose Him, but He chose us when we were still sinners. The guys were very hooked, because “such love is simply impossible in our world” – the guys said! Then I looked and said: “Artem, God loves and gives everyone a chance. He does not want any man to perish, so He sent His Son to save and reconcile people and God.”
Also this month we talked about the Nativity of Jesus. We talked about the
fact that the world lies in sin, but God does not care and He wants salvation. The birth of Jesus Christ was a decision of God and a plan to save man from his own sin. We talked about the fact that the baby Jesus was born in a stable, about how Joseph did not believe Mary and how the Angel confirmed that the savior of the world was born. Everyone knows the story, but we also watched and analyzed the angel’s words about peace on earth. Peace came to the earth only when Jesus came. It was His Birth and later life that reconciled people and God through faith. “And what is the Nativity of Jesus Christ for you?”-I Everyone has their own associations connected with Christmas. Someone associates it with dreams, someone with holiday decorations and gifts. Looking back on how this month has passed and how this year has passed, I thank God for His guidance! After all, thanks to His grace, we could make trips to boarding schools, bring joy and hope to children! Thank God for everything! Merry Christmas!
LOVE 4 THE CHILDREN
