MINISTRY ACTIVITIES: October - December 2003

FAMILY GATHERINGS

Mincho, Fani i Nelinka

On the Day of Christian Family (November 16, Sunday evening after the morning service) we had a meeting only for the families from our church. All of them were very encouraged. We had questions and answers discussion. All of them were very satisfied and we decided to have such gatherings every first Sunday of the month. We also were able to touch questions as "life without marriage". There is one couple that joined recently to our church that has no marriage - Mincho, Fany, and Nelinka. They understood that what they are doing is a sin, but in the same time say that they have no money for wedding ceremony. Please pray for them to legalize their marriage as soon as possible. CHILDREN'S GOOD NEWS CLUB

CHILDREN'S GOOD NEWS CLUB

On the 6-th and 13-th of December we had children home group with the help of Petar and Radka Petrovi who are involved in children ministry in Bourgas and the area. We had 9 children. These are their names: Mathey, Nathanail, Martin, Ivan, Gabriela, Joana, Ana-Mariya, Daniela, and Nelinka. Please pray for them that they can grow in the wisdom and the blessing of the Lord.

BROKEN WINDOWS

On the 29-th of November, Saturday the windows of our smaller children room in the Old School were broken. I repaired them in Tuesday, 2nd of December, and in 6th of December they were broken again. On 11th of December I repaired them again. Please pray that they would stay sound, because otherwise we can not send our children there and it is difficult for the people from the church to hear the sermon. Also please pray that we can finish our church building as soon as possible and move there - in our "Promised Land".

HEALING FROM DIVISION

In the beginning of November suddenly our worship leader Kancho Dimitrov together with his whole family left our church in Dolno Ezerovo in order to minister in another ultra charismatic church in Bourgas. In doing this he discouraged our church and with his gesture he said that our church is not good enough for him. This was very heavy experience for all of us. In the same time the church started to be more mobilized and strict in its life. In the middle of the month we started to use microphones in our worship and preaching. We bought a small mixing deck. What we need now is amplifier and sound effect. Please pray that the church can be healed from this division wound and continue to serve the Lord with all its potential.
