Russian KidsIt is a great time to be alive. I just wish I could live another 50 years or so. God is doing so many great things that I am overwhelmed by His goodness. I received reports almost daily about progress that just a few years ago seemed impossible.
I can remember clearly the days of the Cold War when I joined with other men and women to march and pray for people behind the Iron Curtain. Now they are praying for us. I am not sure I even believed it was possible for the Wall to come down; for our prayers to be answered. But they were and in far,far greater ways than we ever thought or imagined.
I was in St. Petersburg, Leningrad, in 1978 and saw the devastation wrought by Socialism. Cuba looks good in comparison. At least they were driving old Chevvys but the Russians were stuck with Vladas, a piece of junk. Now Moscow and St. Petersburg are alive with BMW's and Mercedes.
But much more important are the thousands of men and women who are finding freedom, healing and hope in Jesus Christ. Our ministry, like hundreds of others, is growing in numbers, strength and impact. The devastation caused by Socialism is waning but much more waits to be done because we need more leaders.
Pray for the work we are doing in one of the greatest nations on earth. The Russian people love America and welcome our support. Support Sweeten Life Systems as we develop creative ways to "Heal the broken hearted and set the captives free."
The Russian people need your prayers and financial investment.
