Exciting Missions in Norway

June 24th, 2015|

I flew from London Gatwick airport to Alesund, Western Norway and then enjoyed an incredibly picturesque drive around the fiords to Molde for an amazing three meetings. The first was an evangelistic meeting through a local church. The second was an amazing meeting attended by some 60 unchurched teenagers who were playing loud, physical games when I arrived at 10pm. They were called to attention by their leaders, and to my amazement, paid attention and respect as I shared my personal testimony of my relationship with Jesus. Many of them responded to my challenge to receive and follow Christ. Others went to their leaders for counselling. The next night saw a combined churches meeting on the power and presence of the Holy Spirit flowing through us, to win the lost to Christ. The people were hungry to hear how the gifts of the Holy Spirit could operate through us to

Orphanages Heading Towards Summer

May 30th, 2015|

While I was in Latvia I checked on a number of the Orphanages where they’d just come through a horrendous winter. Some of the children with low immune systems were still sick, but thank God we didn't lose a child in the winter months, for which I am so grateful. Bless you for helping to make this possible. Sasha, my manager contacted me to say there were six 17 year-old teenagers at the Spriditis Children's Centre in Latvia who wanted to do driving courses at 480 Euro each to prepare them for the work force when they leave the orphanage at 18. The orphanage director had told them not to let their hopes get too high. One young man was desperately forlorn but we promised to try to get the funds in so that they can get this great driving diploma and have a better chance of getting

Latvia Orphans

March 21st, 2015|

There have been some huge needs to meet in Latvia in the last few months of winter with heating bills, medicines and vitamins, and warm clothing. Although warmer weather is anticipated, temperatures are still around -3C and more snow is predicted this weekend. The Gardene Orphanage at Dobele, is extremely grateful that the final stage has been reached in the replacement of their much-needed heating system. It’s with Harvest Time Page 3 much respect that we think of people like Mother Teresa. She was a great servant of God. There are many others like Mother Teresa, who have sacrificed much to care for little children and the desperately needy – Marija, the director of the Gardene Orphanage, is one of them. A very special servant of God. Please pray for her and her family. Please consider helping her with this burden to feed the hungry children poor families, and save

Ukraine Orphans

March 20th, 2015|

In Zhitomir,150 kms west of Kiev, snows began to fall very heavily which made travelling to the outlying orphanages very difficult for our local team. Viktor, my manager, wrote, “We were able to visit an orphanage of 90 orphan girls with mental disabilities. Itwas an amazing meeting.We had a special show of Christmas Bible stories. We asked the children: “What is Christmas all about and who believes in Jesus?”Then we prayed with the children. There was such a lot of love and joy. Many of them hugged us and wanted us to join in their playtime. There were several children who cannot walk, and move around on their knees, like this 15 year-old girl named Yana who has a crippled arm and leg. This little 5 year–old girl has an eating reflux problem and keeps bringing up her food. 15 of these children live in an insulator and have a

A place called Gardene

February 27th, 2015|

[wpgmza id="4"] At one time Gardene was a flourishing community, but now it was smitten by poverty. Electricity and heating was something everyone now only hoped for. Buildings which had housed the Soviet army had been completely destroyed as the departing army stripped them of everything they could carry away. Local families, left with nothing, now hoped for a better life in future. The more fortunate had moved to bigger cities like Riga, Jelgava or nearby Dobele in search of a better life. It was a very difficult time but hope was in the air. Marija was there to start a feeding program in an old building for small children abandoned in Gardene. For these children she was their only means of food. She started with less than 5 Latvian Lats (less than $10 USD) a month to feed 15 children a day. It was a walk of faith.
