To the Wild, Wild East in Russia

As you may know, Russia is a huge country. Once I fly from the US to Moscow I am only half way to the East side of that wide nation's expanse. Over the past few years Galina and her teams have taken the good news of Christ and His healing love to Siberia, the Ural Mountains, Prison Labor Camps and other places forsaken by civil society and where Christianity was usually outlawed.

Now Galina Yerina, Anatoly and Yevgini are leaving July 2 for Abakan to deepen and expand the work of God’s healing and teaching ministry there. Abakan is one of the Soviet’s former “Secret Cities” where armaments were made. They were so secret that they did not appear on any maps and all Christian life was forbidden.

Places that forbid Jesus to be honored also welcome Satan and his henchmen. Abakan's people turned to alcohol and drugs as well as domestic abuse and violence. In addition, the people celebrate and worship demonic cults and Satanic worship.

What we call "The New Age" is not new and it is not an age. It is as old as the devil and as long lasting as evil intentions. Please pray diligently for our ambassadors to this dark and destructive slice of the world.

If we want peace and prosperity in America and the Middle East, Revival in Russia is critical. Mr. Putin must be convinced that Christ is Lord of all life, including his life and the life of his people. Only through a revival led by Jesus Christ can overcome the long, evil history unleashed by the Bolsheviks.

Our dear friends are pioneers in telling the old, old story about Jesus and His love so please do them a favor and pray for their health, protection and power to share the good news.
