Christmas Meeting

Well Christmas is past and we like all other celebraters of this Christian festival are recovering form the business of it all.

We had many meetings including 2 children's specials to which around 200 and 300 respectively attended.

Then there was a Christmas day event ( actually held on December 24 - see photo ). We had 363 people attending all of whom got a small gift.

This included around 150 adults many of whom were for the first time in the church.

We had a wonderful time of celebration together and several made commitments to Christ.

Just after Christmas we took a group of young people from our Tuesday night Karis club away on a winter "camp" - we actually stayed at the O.M. building in Chisinau.

We had studies and celebration meetings together and also went out to Ice Skating, Ten Pin Bowling and the Theatre, a first for all of them.

One young man gave his life to Christ during the week and many other responded at various levels.

It was such a lovely time that even we leaders did not want to go to bed ont he last night.

Keep us in your prayers

Baptism Week

We had an encouraging week of meetings Dec 6-10 finishing with a baptism meeting when 6 people were baptized including ones from other churches here in the South.
Throughout the 5 days there were over 70 people who came to the church who are not members, many of whom were here for the first time.

Around 30 people responded to the call of the gospel over the week including Nicu a 25 yr old young man who is blind, several other young people and some older ones.

We are currently running new believers courses for those that responded or indeed for ones who didn't but want to know more.

Everyone is welcome!!! Contact Markmold7@hotmail.com for details

We also had a Christmass celebration programme for school children when around 200 were present with Christmass gifts supplied by Patmis Foundation a Christian organisation from Finland.

We also plan to hold another Christmas celebration meeting for all ages on Dec 24 at 10.00 at the church when again all are invited.

Peace to you all
