Excerpts from letter:
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ!
I am very happy to write this newsletter to you. I am truly honored and deeply thankful to God for having such a huge loving family in Christ, for having brothers and sisters. Sending greetings to you from Estonia, Tallinn. May God bless your homes, bless your families, and bless you in all that you do. May your reward in heaven be great and immeasurable. Thank you so much! I love you with the love of Christ, and I hope that soon we can meet again in person.
This year, Pastor Alexander and I decided to restart our youth meetings at his place, since our newborn, Solomiia, is still very vulnerable and we cannot yet host many guests in our home. We have not started the meetings yet, but this matter will be discussed and resolved this Saturday at our brothers’ prayer breakfast. Also, with the agreement of our actively serving brothers, I successfully created a YouTube channel for our church. We are now publishing the translations that we previously shared only in our Facebook public group. This Wednesday, we also successfully recorded and published our Wednesday Bible study class. At first, we streamed the translation on Facebook to see how many people would watch, and it turned out to be quite a lot. Next time, we plan to bring small microphones to connect to my phone so I can provide clearer Russian-to-English translation. I translate for some of our English-speaking brothers and sisters, and I am happy to do this for a wider audience so that as many people as possible can study God’s Word with us. If it is okay with you, I would like to kindly ask you to subscribe to our YouTube channel. This would help us reach the minimum requirement of 50 subscribers so that we can stream our Sunday worship and Wednesday Bible study on both Facebook and YouTube. At the moment, we have only 13 subscribers. Thank you for your support! "https://www.youtube.com/@EUTKK1"
I continue to serve in the church by translating, singing, cleaning, encouraging others, and sharing the Word. I truly enjoy every part of this service, and I thank you for encouraging me to continue.May God bless your day today, the rest of your week, and all the work that you do.
Colossians 3:23–24 (NIV):
“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.” Amen.
With the love of Christ,
Richard, Nastya, and Solomiia
Alpha Omega Christian Secondary School, Tanzania
The 253 students who currently attend Alpha Omega Christian Secondary School in Tanzania are sending a huge "asante" (thank you) to all donors who have made such an amazing difference in their lives! Completing high school helps students escape the cycle of poverty which typically includes living in mud huts without electricity or running water. While attending Alpha Omega, students learn about Jesus and the scriptures through the school's Bible curriculum, chapel services, and campus church. And they receive an education which ranks in the top ten percent in the nation, opening doors for them to attend colleges and qualify for good jobs. Many students make the decision to follow Christ and as a result the Kingdom is growing as these students' become leaders in it.
To sponsor a student for one school year, the cost is $1,100 which covers tuition, room, and board along with books, water, electricity and health care. Your tax-deductible donation of any amount will bless these students and can be made to:

We are so grateful for you and for God's indescribable gift of Jesus!
