Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day. (John 6:53-54)

Last week, we had a communion ceremony with baptism. Sh. Alexey Belykh served communion for the first time as a chapter director. It was the first time that two 2nd gens of Russian shepherds were baptized in 23 years of our mission life in Moscow. They were David Park and Lubov Rusanova. This event deeply taught us that the life of eating Jesus’ flesh and drinking his blood is to remember everyday Jesus’ death on the cross and the grace of his own blood sacrificed and be thankful with living a giving life of loving God and our neighbors through repenting our selfishness, self-centeredness, disobedience and arrogance.

Every Tuesday all women missionaries gather for deep Bible study and writing reflections at Moscow chapter to form a vessel of the Holy Spirit. Russian shepherdesses also are faithfully having a prayer meeting every week after Sunday worship service. Personally, I have been serving one to one Bible study with Shs. Marina Kukushikky for about four months. I pray that she may establish a beautiful house church.

I also pray that I may serve Sh. Timothy & Natasha Ha family with many prayers this year and experience God’s blessing and the secret of God through obeying one word of God.
