This month was very happy and blessed for us! Serving Orphans in Rudensk boarding is not on the same place. If at the beginning of last month, we have experienced that most of the guys that we always kept in touch and were always coming to our meetings, have left school and gone to different cities, then today, our ro
om is filled with more and more willing to hear about God. Now the new guys who previously ignored the communication with us come to us even . Glory to God!
In October, we have tried to diversify our program. We were two main themes: “Born to reconcile” and “True friendship.” At these meetings, it was suggested that Jesus was born in order to give people peace. We also talked about how it is imp
ortant not only to look for a good and loyal friends, but also and most try to be a good friend to someone. One of the meetings we have dedicated to sports. We had the opportunity to organize a children’s sports team play, which very much unites us and the kids. Usually not all the kids want to participate in sports, so they were held personal communication, in which the boys just could share their experiences, triumphs, and ask questions. And, of course,on one of the meetings, we were divided into separa
te groups of boys and girls.
At a meeting with the girls, we were talking about what God has placed in them the beauty and femininity. We talked about how important it is to monitor the appearance, but more importantly, to develop the beauty of our heart. Boys were just talking about what real men should be strong and courageous. In addition, they must keep the commandments of God.
Thank God for this wonderful time!
On October 27, 2012, we are planning to hold an annual Christian conference dedicated to the service to orphans. The conference is called “You’re not alone”.
If we talk about our ministry in Belynichy boardi
ng this month, it had its difficulties and wins! At this point, most of the kids who attended our communication are already out of the orphanage. They were distributed to study in different cities. Some were immediately sent to work
after school. So now we have to go in contact with the new guys, and from the beginning to lay in their biblical basis. Now we try to get to know better the new guys to further invite them to
our meetings and maintain contact with them. One of our meetings, we spent just acquaintance and personal contact with the children. At subsequent meetings, we have tried to show that what qualities God has and how its individual features we see in our lives. For some guys it was a completely new information, but also the boys, for whom this information was good repetition.
There was also a great opportunity to give the children clothes and shoes. It was a big help for them. Because not all of the guys there are good things and quality shoes for fall and winter. Therefore, we are especially grateful to those who helped to collect these things! And separately thank those involved in ministry to orphans prayerfully and financially!
We went to Rudensk orphanage every week this month. We spend time with 
children there: talked to them, sang, played, shared about God and also we gave them wise advices for future. Last Wednesday we organized meetings for girls and meeting for boys. At the meeting for girls we talked that God created a women to be unique, he gave her different talents and abil
ities. Also it was suggested to compare a woman with a book, where each page is unique.
As for me, boys also had an interesting evening – we talked about football, studying and about Arnold Schwarzenegger. The theme called “Value of the moment”: that was an example to tell them about the moment that could change their life – the 
moment of repentance. In conclusion we reminded them that each person uses time to advantage or in vain. And only he/she is responsible how to use time.
It’s always such a joy to see fruit in our ministry. One boy started to read Bible regularly and pray. Every ti
me, when we come, he says he’s prayed for us to come. You can tell about changes in his life not only in words, but in deeds. He is one of the most attentive listeners and active participants. I’m truly worry about his life.
Thereby one more month has passed in our ministry in Rudensk. We are grateful for your help and support in our ministry!
Hi everyone!
So here we are – the summer is over and a new academic year has begun.
It means that a new season of our visits to the Grozov orphanage has
been launched. During the summer camp we have built strong attachments
with the orphans and they are looking forward to see us again now. We
are happy that the kids trust us more now. 
We can discuss anything
with them, they share with us their joys and sorrows, tell us their
prayer needs, ask for advice and some kids have accepted Jesus Christ
into their hearts. All this gives us plenty of strength and
inspiration to serve those kids.
We have prepared a cycle of lectures for them entitled “Jesus We Don’t
Know”. We want the kids to learn more about our Savior Jesus Chr
ist.
We also talk with them about the positive and negative subcultures
that exist in our world so that the kids will have knowledge and
understanding about the music they are fond of which can influence
their minds, their attitude to clothes, make-up and, their choice of
role-models. We teach them about the hidden symbols and show that
there is an alternative to all that has evil roots. Many kids love to
read and we used it as an opportunity to preach – each time we bring
with us Christian books for the children to read. And they like to
read them and discuss with us.
Our foremost task now is to fight for the kids who still haven’t
reconciled with Jesus and for those who have already accepted Jesus
into their lives so that they will not lose the love and faith they
have received. We encourage you to join our prayers for the kids so
that the seeds that were sown would grow and give plenty of fruit and
so that God would give us wisdom to provide the children with the
right guidance so that no soul would perish but rather gain eternal
life with the Lord.
LOVE 4 THE CHILDREN
