I do not have pneumonia!

I`m so excited and so thankful to each of you, who prayed for my health!I praise God, He absolutely healed me from this sickness!Many, many and many thanks for your support and prayers!You have been so great encouragement for me but especially in heavy days and I thank God and pray for you.My love to you all. :)
Thank you very much to be so amazing blessing!

I had days when I felt better and had days when it became worst.During all this period I had peace in heart and I believe because of your prayers. :) And I had days when I felt so bad and I cried as small girl and felt so weak physically and emotionally and pleaded Jesus to be merciful to me. I do not remember that I was sick so long by chills or similar to it.More than 7 weeks, it was long journey of sickness for me.I prayed and wanted to visit dear ones and beloved children and do other things in ministry.But Jesus worked...He tenderly and lovely worked in my sinful heart. He wants that I serve Him with whole my heart, as never before that I burn more for Him.His desire is that I would be much closer to Him and hear His voice.I felt physically so bad that felt myself like in burning furnace as three young men in Bible.It was His work, to melt my heart and make as His heart...Somewhere in the end of my sickness, I felt peacefully and easier much more in my heart than before sickness.It was His work through my sinful flesh.

And He even opened and gave me an answer to my question, about what I had not peace in my heart sometime.I could not understand, it was something strange...When it came back to my heart I thought it was my wrong thinking,it is my flesh.But when I began thinking, I not felt peace in heart again and again.It was so strange and I could not understand why?Even it was and is good, as Bible says.But God opened to me,  WHY I did not feel peace about it and I`m so thankful to Him!God spoke to my heart through a whole year I just could not understand what is that and why...What He wanted to say to me.Now I know!I believe God protected BOM from many troubles in the future!Jesus taught me many times and I learn not do something, when I do not feel peace in heart.Yes, I do mistakes but I learn to walk by His narrow way. Sometimes it`s really heavy when you have to give quick an answer. Jesus allows us fall down and do mistakes that we understand that we can do nothing without Him. And only with Him, trusting and belonging to Him and to walk by narrow way, we are blessed. I love Jesus and so grateful He saved me from hell some years ago and  feeling so greatly blessed to be His child!Jesus is so good!

Thank you very much again for your prayers and took time to read these thoughts.Much love to you all!

A Little Edik is in hospital

Prayers still needed

Thank you very much for all your prayers!!!So, sadly but I still feel sick.

Last week we went to one city that to get beautiful and amazing blessings for orphans. I will tell about it more in a next blog post. I hope tomorrow, if God allow.

We left at night, though there were two o'clock in the morning, but was warm. And in the afternoon very much became cold harshly. We sisters very much felt cold. I so awfully felt cold that already wanted nothing and couldn't wait, when we will come back home. 

As this trip took us day and night, on the road back, the fever already rose, all body awfully ached and I was ill.

  So, there were several days. Because of the high fever, all body awfully hurt and I could make nothing. Now the temperature isn't present. But still have headaches and awful cough hurts.

I think that I chilled bronchial tubes. When I cough it seems that everything inside is broken off on thousands pieces, seems as burns and very painfully inside.

Also it seems that chilled any of nerves.I`m not sure yet. Several times something inside pressed and I was scant of breath.It was several times, was to pant very much that I already thought to cause ambulance. But thank God everything has gone.Please, keep pray for my health...

I don't want that there were any consequences in my organism. Because I suffer 18 years already because of this awful coughing in each cold climate.It brings troubles to me.But most of all I can not visit our all treasures.Our dear kiddies whom we love dearly.

We would be so thankful if you pray for health of all our team always. Every day health, force and energy are necessary to us.Thanks a lot!

Because of it I couldn't visit orphans in orphanages with team. So sadly. :(

But here I would like to share with you video. As in one of orphanages children said hello to me.Are not they sweet? :)

Children say "Privet" (hello)

So funny and so lovely.I miss them a lot!I do not know how many "hundreds" times I watched this video to see precious faces.

Thank you so very much for all your prayers, support and love!God bless you!!!

Good and bad news...

This updating is about the father of our brother Misha and director of BOM.

We have for you good and bad news.
Good news, that prayers can do miracles. It indeed, our dear friends. Thank many your prayers the father of our brother Misha, is still alive.
This is real miracle. Thank God! Neither doctors, nor friends, nobody can believe in it that he is still alive! Each time our pastor Misha goes on funeral to the father and each time he stand up on feet and he become better. At this time he started to eat and he started to stand up on feet too.

And bad news. He has a sick heart and as the result other illness joined. It seems that he has the hypoxia. Also he had a stroke.When his son arrived to him, his father raved and didn't understand that occurs, forgot names sometimes, behaved as the child. Therefore to his son Misha, it is necessary to look after him, to comb, feed, shave, dress, to wash etc.and stayed longer time there.

Here what brother Misha says:

"I understand that not for long remained, though doctors say that such senile status can be prolonged still any time. 

Now he in such status that for me it become by pain to look at him, such helpless. Such to worry is very difficult, day after day, day after day.... And it passes day after day...; I shave him, I feed, I take him out under a hand on a yard (is very weakly), I dress, I sit with him at nights. Today had cut nails to him and nearly didn`t cry... After all I remember that once in the childhood he cut to me nails, and now I do to him, because he is unable. And sometimes I simply hug and say - "Father, I very much love you", and he is silent, probably, already understanding nothing about what I speak.So painfully that I nearby, and he doesn't feel joy from my presence, as earlier. It is difficult to tell and show the love, and it is so heavy to transfer it when your important words and your feelings to dear person are known only to you, and he doesn't know it, or - simply doesn't understand.

It`s heavy to look at him, but I love him, and he very much is dear to me. Difficult that this love isn't mutual, and is one way, with no strings attached .
I love him, even if he doesn't understand it, or nearly doesn't understand. I understood, though, likely and not up to the end how we are beloved by the Christ. I understood more that the love to my father became even more strongly not is dependent on any consequences in his life.
Though I am and in bitterness, but partly enjoy his presence... and probably in his last days..."

  Our hearts are broken with bro.Misha and it hurts.It`s so heavy to carry this burden...

He is so deeply grateful for all your many prayers, e-mails and support!It gives him strength and peace in heart, even it`s hurts. It helps him to carry this burden and see love of Jesus, through your great Christian love and care.He so much appreciates it.Many thanks, sweet Friends.

Dear our beloved brothers and siters in Christ, Dear Church of Christ, we ask you to continue to pray for brother Misha and his father, cover them in many your prayers, God give them peace, comfort and provide all their needs they have.Please, pray God will do His will in their both lives, what He wants...We know God will do what is the best even it`s heavy and you do not understand.Please, pray...Thanks a lot!God bless you!

One more meeting

I LOVE these precious smiles!Aren`t they cute and sweeties?Ah, we so love these darling souls.

The Lord gave the chance to us to conduct with them one more Bible lesson, telling about God's miracles and his care of his children. This time we told them story about Elijah how the Lord used him and made many surprising miracles/(1 Kings 17-18)

I told you early here that we made a puppet a raven who was a guest(in other orphanage) and told to children about Elijah, as ravens fed him.( 1 Kings 17:4) It was such joy to children at this orphanage too!

All of them so attentive and with amazement listened to what our raven Karkarona (her name) told. It was amazing and such wonderful moment! All children listened and looked at her with delight, in fact she was our guest. ;) Kids wanted to pet her and were soooooo excited!They LOVED her!

As the puppet of raven drew attention of children, it was easy to tell a remaining part stories about Elijah, what Nadia and made.It was awesome time!

Then we played game, "feed Elijah". One part of children hid slices of paper meat where the Bible verse was written and which we studied then. Other part of children, which were in a role of ravens, shall find this meat and bring to the protagonist of the Bible story, by other word to feed him. We had Nadia as prophet Elijah.

Kids were so much excited to play this game!They were so thrilled they should to find something.As they love to hide and find!The game was excellent too!

Look at this sweet boy how he is happy that he found this piece of the meat.

Then children did a raven craft. So that saved time at lesson and children weren't soiled in black color, we ourselves painted paper plates by black color, before going to this orphanage. It was necessary to paint 70 pieces. It simplify much more work of children. They should paste only a beak of raven, where it held the Bible verse that we studied. Also to paste wiggle eyes. Oh, how they simply adore, when eyes move at their crafts! And with help of brads to attach wings to raven, that it could "fly".

They were SO much excited to make this craft!And especially that it can fly!

At the very end of a meeting we congratulated who had birthdays. Oh, how they were glad to gifts! Before the lesson began, children already hurried to tell that they had a birthday. Some children asked:" Will you congratulate me and present a toy to me when will be a birthday in 3 or 4 months?" 

Many orphans wait these gifts for some months forward! Please send toys, cars, whatever you can.., that we could congratulate them. It is a special day in life of each child. You need to see their admiration and such pure joy when they receive them!

Our desire to make their special day, at least a little more joyfully and absolutely another from all common and gray days their lives. Please, remember that nobody congratulates orphans, and they so wait for a gift...Thanks!

 

 We had such great and wonderful time with these kids.

Well.With these souls, dear to our hearts, we can meet not soon... They go to homes on summer vacations. They go there, where for them don't wait, where they aren't loved, where they can meet an evil and violence, misunderstanding and humiliation.It so sad and breaks our hearts that here on the earth, they simply are necessary to nobody, lonely and thrown... Please pray, that God keeped them from any evil and troubles.Pray that they saw the God's hand in their lives, love and his care.Thanks a lot!

"But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God." (Luke 18:16) KJV

about Deborah to orphans

I`m very happy to tell that we could visit several orphanages yesterday and today.We had very blessed time with kids!Also we are going to visit one more orphanage tomorrow, if God`s will.About our visitings I will share with you a little bit later.Here I would like to tell you about one of ours visiting that we had last week.

Do you see this beautiful girl who is sitting under a palm tree?She was Deborah.Yes, we told a Bible story about Deborah, woman-warrior to children who dwelt under palm tree and who was a prophetess and judge too.In Bible this story is in Judges 4. Children were amazed and surprised to hear that!!!They loved this strory!

After prayer and song we had object lesson.We showed a picture of chariot to them and spoke a bit about it.

What do you think, for whom it is easier to winning for infantryman of the warrior or who has a chariot?Why? etc.

After that they listened of  the story.We have decided to tell this story in roles where there were Devora, Sisera and Barak.

The Lord has blessed with it we could make a palm tree that it would be more interesting to children. We have made leaves with of the big sheets of foam. Thanks to those who has blessed us with big sheets of foam! And we have made a tree trunk(body) with of a cardboard pipe which we have asked in shop for fabrics. Usually on this pipe reel up the big rolls of fabrics. God has blessed that we have got several of it free of charge. :) We colored it, have added leaves and we had palm tree.Children were amazed and said: "Oh, we have palm tree!That is unusual!"

Kids were excited very much to play roles of this story but others were excited to listen and it was fun!

Then we had a game, where children should to give the right answer on a question on Bible history. We named this game, Help a palm tree to blossom. As our palm tree was without leaves, children helped to blossom to it by means of their answers. :) Who has given the right answer, had the right to attach a palm leaf.

They loved much this game!

But children were more amazed and impressed when they saw Bible verse which we were going to learn with them!!! Wow!That is nice!Oh, look it is Deborah and palm tree! and many different speeches you could hear! :)
The verse we learned with the was "The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree..."Psalm 92:12In Russian Bibles Psalm 91:13
We printed big picture of Deborah with warriors where is Bible verse too and colored it.Also we made palm tree there, leaves were made from foam too that we can use it in many orphanages. :)

Then they did a craft, Deborah under a palm tree. Very much it was pleasant to them, as the craft was unusual and it was easy to do it for them.

We were so blessed by spent time with them and telling about Bible heroes!We thanks and praise God!

At this time Sasha and Lyuba had time with teens.I`m so sorry I do not have pictures.But I know, they had absolutely blessing time with older kids!

Friends, we need your help!We would be very thankful if you will pray for us, God give us wisdom, strength, patience, to know heart of each child more, how to train and help them as much as it possible.How to discipline them and teach them to obey.As most children are with special needs and each of them are very different, it is very heavy for us.Very often we need in God`s wisdom.
Please, pray for us! Thank you!!!

Urgent prayer

Our life sometimes remind me of zebra, who has white and black strips or lines.In our christian lives we have blessings big and small and have worries and trials big and small too.

Sometimes you are so happy that you think heaven came down.You want to sing and glorify God! You worship and grateful God for all things He does in your life, even bad too!You want to praise God and tell whole world about mighty and amazing God you serve, because you are happy!

 Sometimes you feel yourselves not so good when you have such big trial and sometimes it is heavy most of all, when you think sometimes, it never will finish...And you do not see the end of it...

Dear sweet friends, with worries in our hearts we all BOM team beg you to pray for our pastor of Baptist Church and head of BOM, your brother in Christ, Misha.

He has a big trial in his life right now.His health is very bad, he has bleeding gastric ulcer, big trouble with gaster.He can not sleep at nights sometimes because of it, he vomits with blood. He suffers sometimes, when we go to orphanages or he does any work at church.He has this trouble for a long time.But every time it become worse and worse.Because he eat not well and not eat enough. And he does not get a medicine because he is not able to buy it...

Recently his health status scared us to the death, when he nearly hasn't died last few days. A doctor says he should to get a medicine immediately or it can be too late...

• He is a person who loves his church and ministry to orphans much.

• He is a person who devoted all his life to Jesus Christ with full heart.

• He sacrifice a lot of things that to be faithful servant of God.

• He is  pastor who ready to help you spiritually and physically when you needs it.

• He is pastor who ready to help you in any time of a day or even at a night by ride of hundred of kilometers far away from home that to help someone.

• He is pastor who has Christianized hundreds of souls to Jesus Christ.

• He is pastor who had lead several dozens of persons to Christ before the hours, day or few days or several weeks or months of their death.

One of these person is my dad, with whom our pastor prayed prayer of sinner, before the almost a day of his death few weeks ago...
And he is pastor who needs much our prayers and God`s miracle!

Please, we beg you with overwhelmed hearts pray for brother Misha.We even can not imagine what will happen with church or ministry to orphans if something worse will happen... Please, pray for his healing.Pray for miracle.Please, pray for his daily needs and medicine he needs  that God will provide.

We know God hears your prayers!We love you all and thankful for your love and faithful support!God bless you!

 You can send your encouragements to brother Misha to his e-mail glazovm@mail.ru

Dear sweet and beloved Friends,thank you soooo much for your prayers and encouragements!We appreciate it VERY much!

We would like to let you know, today our dad has gone on the Heaven to His Saviour.

Yes, he asked Jesus to saved Him!We are distress and with broken hearts.We are overwhelmed and crushed.It is so HARD to tell good bye to someone you love...Just tears, pain and broken heart...

But in same time we have peace and calm in our hearts that our dear and beloved father is in the Heaven with Jesus.We still can NOT believe as it happened so fast, just for a few days.He suffered physical VERY much.He was in crisis care centre because of his very bad condition.He had big trouble in his brain, because accident happened with him.It was so HARD to see how he suffered from his a lot of pains in his body.And it is more hard when you understand you can not help him and only beg Jesus to be merciful to him and take away his pains.But God called him to the Heaven.
It is still hard to accept his death.We were shocked to receive this news, as we did not expect it will happen today... But God gives us a peace, because of YOUR prayers.HUGE thank you!

Funeral will be this Thursday.
We would love to thank you for a lot of your prayers and sweet emails, comments and encouragements again.Your blessing e-mails, encouragements etc helps us go ahead and live for Jesus.You are light of Jesus and Church of Christ!

Even in this hard trials of our life we see God`s hand.God has blessed and covered all our needs we needed for medicine our father and now for funeral.Also God blessed us by good doctors and nurses, who cared about him.And we saw God`s love in many little things He has blessed us in this trial.
We would love to hug you ALL that to tell thank you but we are not able.But some day in the Heaven we will do that.

We love you ALL and so THANKFUL to being with us in this hard moments in our life...

P.S.I do not know when I can post again.Because some questions and matters I need to do after this what has happened...We have some good news for you.I will try to post as soon I can.Thank you!We love you ALL!
