In a recent video, Vitali gave praise to the Lord and thanks to all of you who prayed or donated for a ministry car to replace the one fire-bombed by Russian saboteurs. You should know that when Vitali mentioned my name in the video for being one of the first to help him, he was talking about YOU.
Here’s the story behind that. Russian saboteurs targeted Vitali because he was serving the Lord on the front lines – travelling long distances in his car delivering Bibles, Christan literature, food, clothes, bandages etc. to suffering soldiers. More importantly, he prayed with them and shared the Gospel with many.
The loss of this car greatly hindered Vitali’s ministry. He needed at least $10,000 for an adequate used car to continue his ministry. 1) He tried to raise funds from Ukrainian friends and relatives, but could only raise $1,260, so the plan stalled. 2) YOU and others helped me raise and deliver $6,000. 3) This encouraged other believers to join in the project and give donations beyond the goal and get a better car than he hoped for.
Together we inspired the teamwork that made a big difference. Thank you again for your faithfulness.
