We are
happy to report in this ‘Good News,’ that on our recent successful
mission to Ukraine, in addition to planting of two more churches, making
a total of 62 that Marge and I have planted personally and that have
spawned many more churches in the former USSR.
We had
three seminars for
workers and found a new location for the Basic Bible Training School.
We were
also able to purchase, by faith, five more buildings for churches.
This
has been done with your prayers and support. |

The village of
Zhovtneve,
the cost was US$750.00 |
With these recent purchases,
(we have acquired 14 alone this year) the best part, except for what is
yet owed on these, all are paid for and in the name of the local
churches. God is good!
We had
a goal of purchasing 70 buildings for churches a few years ago and now
that we have attained it, by the Grace of God, I feel in my spirit that
God wants us now to believe for 50 more, making a total of 120.
So friends, by His Grace,
we are going to pray and believe God for this miracle. |

Village of Krasnoarmeisk, Crimea, for only $600.00 |
For with God all
things are possible. (Mark 10:27 KJV)
And Jesus looking upon them saith,
With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are
possible. (Luke 1:37 KJV)
For with God nothing shall be impossible.
We ask you to pray and
believe with us. The first 2 buildings we purchased on this trip were in
the Oblast (Province) of Poltava. (the largest of all the provinces of
Ukraine) The first one was in Nikolayevra, a village of 1,000 people,
where a new church congregation is growing. The cost was US$900.00.

 ,
Magazynka, Crimea, purchased for $900.00. |
The second one was in the
village of Zhovtneve for the cost of US$750.00. These are fine buildings
where the interior walls are taken down and remodel by the people. They
were so thankful to us.
We told them not to thank us, but thank God and
His people, like you, who pray and stand with us in faith that God uses
for these purposes.
We have helped the senior
pastor of this area in the past get 3 other buildings within the
province. He has now opened 17 new churches. Yes, he is a product of one
of our schools. Praise the Lord! |

Vishmoka, Crimea, we purchased a nice building for $800.00 |
Then, in the province of
Crimea, we were able to purchase 3 more buildings for churches. Seven or
eight years ago we planted a church in Crimea. They have now increased
to 32 churches.
We have purchased a total
of 9 buildings for them in the last few years. They have a vision for a
church in every city, town and village in Crimea, a total of 1,080.
Sixty percent of the people in Crimea are Russian and over 500,000 are
Tartars.
There are many Muslims in
Crimea and there are many coming in trying to take over the whole
province. |
Only $950.00 for this
building. |
They are pouring in millions
of their books and literature, much coming from the Arab and Muslim
countries. Many
clerics are coming in and are preaching their religion everywhere they
can.
This is why we must do
all we can, while we can.
In the town of Vishmoka,
Crimea we purchased a nice building for $800.00 which has a growing
congregation. |
|
Shamraiuka only $740.00 |
In the village of
Krasnoarmeisk, Crimea, a nice building acquired for only $600.00 and
finally in Magazynka, Crimea, we purchased for the local church, a large
house for $900.00.
In this ‘Good News,’ we
are showing photos of these 5 new buildings, plus we are printing some
photos of 8 other buildings we bought for churches earlier this year
that we did not print.
We want to report to you
that they are all paid in full! All Glory to the Lord!
We are printing the
location on the photos. Please pray for these growing churches as they
reach out to win their areas for the Lord. |

In Novo Pavlovka, $850.00 |
We have also provided
hundreds of our latest Russian book (4th book we have printed in Russian
for the former USSR) for the churches in Crimea.
One good thing that
communism did, was give a common language to all the countries of the
former USSR that was made up of 13 nations.
We are able to print in
one language which can be used by all Russian speaking people.
May God bless you as you
partner in prayer and faith with Marge and I in this ministry that
reaches many people through different and diverse outreaches.
Your missionaries,
Tony & Marge Abram |
