On June 6, we will be taking the older children on a field trip to Odessa for those who had the most attendance in our club. We will be taking them to the zoo and to McDonalds for lunch. Pray for safety as we travel and for the children to have good behavior.
June 20-July 11 we will be having a special missionary emphasis in our children's program. We will be sharing the lives of Amy Carmichael, Gladys Aylward, Erik Liddel and Jim Elliot. Pray for the Spirit of God to work in the hearts of these children to maybe one day give their lives to serve God in missions.
July 21-26 we will be having our summer VBS/Camp. We are expecting at least 100 children to attend. Currently, we do not have enough leaders to run the camp successfully. Please pray for leaders and helpers to agree to be a part of our camp. Pray for our team as we make preparations for this event. Pray that God will work in the hearts and lives of our children in Petrovka.
In August, we will be having our first baptismal service for new believers. Currently there are 10 candidates preparing to be baptized. We thank God for these 10 people! We need prayer for all the preparations for this special event in the life of our church. We need a pool or basin that can be set up on our property for the service. We thought about traveling to the Black Sea or a nearby lake, but we believe we need to have this service in our town so that neighbors and friends can attend.
Praise the Lord together with us that one of my supporting churches and four personal supporters provided the funds for the 25 chairs we need. Thank you so much!!!
Also, we thank the Lord for the remodeling project that was just completed in our children's Sunday School room and our kitchen. Thank you to all who had a part in this project.
