ВЕРНОСТЬ

2007-03-03T13:09:00.000-08:00

Мир вам от Господа нашего дорогая моя семья во Христе Иисусе. Вы даже представить себе не можете какие чудеса Бог совершает в моей жизни здесь в Доминиканской Республике. Я думала, что Бог привел меня сюда, что бы я послужила этим людям в их отношениях с Господом но все происходит наоборот.

Вы знаете что я пять лет молилась что бы Бог открыл мне дверь в Латинскую Америку и мне уже начало казаться, а вдруг это лишь моя навязчивая идея. Но Бог был верен и привел меня на этот остров посреди Карибского моря, где я нахожусь уже 4 месяца. По моему, Доминикана одна из самых бедных, но так жа одна из cамых богатых стран. Я каждый день не перестаю поражаться той силе веры, которую имеют эти люди. Везде, в транспорте, магазнах, парикмахерских, любом частно бизнесе, а сдесь практически все в частной собственности, вы можете увидеть огромное колличество надписей, типа -Бог тебя любит, Все могу в укрепляющем меня Иисусе Христе, Бог мой путеводитель, Баваро (городок, где я живу) для Христа, и многое другое.Я тут хожу в молодую церковь, которая за пару лет приобрела огромное колличество жизней для Христа. Они поставили себе цель - завоевать Баваро для Христа. И у меня реально проснуласьревность по тому дерзновению и страсти, с которой наши доминиканские братья и сестры служат Господу, живут Им каждую минуту своей жизни и проповедуют Христа всякму, кого встречают на работе, соседям, мототаксистам, как они доверябт Богу все области своей жизни, свои финансы в частности, с радостью отдавая свою десятину и жертвуя нa КАЖДОМ церковном собрании в течении всей недели.

На прошлых выходных я и мой жених Энрике, мы ездили на церковный ритрит. Ах для тех, кто не знает, Бог благославил меня невероятно, приведя в мою жизнь особого брата во Христе. За эти четыре месяца, что я сдесь, Бог совершал очень многое в наших жизнях, укрепляя нас в нашх отношениях с Ним и друг с другом. Бог вложил в наши сердца любовь друг к другу и желание прожить наши жизни для Него вместе. Кике, это уменьшительное имя от Энрике сделал мне предложение, мы говорили с пастором и в ближайшее время мы объявим о нашей помолвке в церкви. В мае, если на то воля Бога, мы планируем приехать в Россию и поженится.

Так вот, возвращаясь к теме ритрита. Это было очень особое время с Богом, время сокрушения и духовного освобождения для каждого. Бог открыл нне глаза на очень многое в духовном мире, я увидела на сколько реальны родовые и семейные проклятия, на сколко реальна сила дьяволав жизни людей. Я видела и слышала демонов, которых изгоняли во имя Иисуса Христа. Это дейсвительно страшно видеть беснующегося человека, но Иисус победил на кресте и Бог реально сильнее. В моем случае, Бог освободил меня от бремени и как оказалось не прощня по отношении к моей маме. Бог дал мне прочувствовать всю ту боль, которая она испытывала на протяжении своей жизни и Он наполнил мое сердце огромной любовью к ней. Это время молитвы покаяния иходотайствования за мою семью было реальной духовной битвой протв дьявольских сил, которые не давали им прийти к Богу. Бог не дал уверенность в том что Он верен и моя мама и мой дом будут славить Господа! Бог реальноосвободил меня от ран прошлого, что бы дать мне будущее.

Я так же очень много молилась за Россию, за нашу церковь. Бог дал мне ревность и огромное желание что бы та работа, которую Он совершает в жизнях такого большого колличества людей в Латинской Америке, Он бы совершил в жизнях русских, что бы наша молодежь так горела бы для Господа, как эти ребята. Подростки начиная с 12 лет и выше, ведут поклонение, ведутв молитве, проповедуют как в церкви, так на домашних группах. Это нуно быловидеть как эта молодежь, которая ужепрошла ерез свой ритрит освобождения служила всем тем, для кого такой ритрит был впервые.

Бог так же совершил многое в жизни Кике и я не перестаю славить Бога за ту близость и желание служение Господу, которое Он дал ему. Бог благ!!!!!!!!!!! И я не могу дождаться того времени, когда мы приедим в Питр и изольем все эти благословения на мою сеьмю и на всех вас мои дорогие братья и сестры.За это время я меняла много работ- работа гида для русских туристов, работала в отеле, продавала экскурсии. Вчера вела эккурсию на полуострове Самана. Ежегодно с января по март, туда приплывают горбатиекиты, что бы давать потомство. Кроме того мы ездим на ранчо, там на лошадях едим через джунгли к 70ти етовому водопаду Лимон. Там у каждого есть свой проводник, и каждый раз, когда я там, я проповедую этим людям, порой даже собираюсь с ними возле их хижины и делюсь из слова. Один азя молилась об сцелении, и вера этих людей блана столько сильной, что Бог исцелял их, и бль больше не возращалась. Вчера я даже молилась за исцеление одного слепого мужчины. Его тело дрожало, когда я возложила на него руки, сама не наю как Бог дал мне столько дерзновения. Мужчина не прозрел в тот же самый момент, но как написанно, по вере вашей дано вам будет и что веой даже горы сможем передвигать. Посмотрим, может Бог все же исцелит его, хотя конечно самое важное, что бы его сердце было исцелено, о чем я конечно так же молилась.Господь наполняет меня неверояной радостью и блгодарносью за все те чудеса, которые Он совершает в моей жизни, за Его верность в моей жизни, за то что Он дал мне желания сердца и когда пришло Его время открыл дверь и обеспечил финансами, и дал мне возможность служиь Ему, и привел ко мне человека по сердцу Своему и моему.

Просто хочу поддержать вас дорогие братья и сестры, Ищите Царствия Божьего и Он исполнит желаня сердца вашего, отдайте Богу все, будьте Ему послушны, позвольте Ему исцелить ваши раны, Он хочет дать вам свободу, так что вы удие парить в божьем присутствии как орел, раправив крылья.

Очень надеюсь, что это письмо поддержало вас. Намшите мне, я очень по вам скучаю. Молитесь за меня, что бы еще больше Бога бло в моейжизни, что бы была послушна Ему всегда, и что бы Бог дал много мудрости мне и моему жениху.Жду ваших новостей и mолитвенных просьб.

2007-01-03T17:39:00.000-08:00

Peace to all of you my dear friends and family. How are you al doing? Warm and even hot greetings and blessings from the cost of Dominican Republic. God is so good and so faithful! 5 years of prayers about Latin America. And here am i already 1 month ish in the island in Caribbean sea- Dominican Republic.In brief, the first week i spent with a a wonderful dominican family in a small town Hato Mayor del Rey. I had a chance to see daily life of regular dominicans, to get to know these people. Dominicans are very joyful and open. They never in hurry. Life is a time of rest and a bit of work to be able to buy some rice, beans and chicken. In general Dominicans who lives in the small towns and villages are very simple people, but those who live on the cost and working in a tourism or in the touristic area they are very sneaky, they called to be a "tigeraso". They trying to use foreigners and always charge them more. If you are white, and have blue pr green eyes, be ready to hear a highest price for any product or service. Here you always have to negotiate. This is a world of mulats and black. So you can imagine how much attention i have here. I found out that my blue eyes have unhealthy effect on local man, so i'm trying not to stare to their eyes too much. Because if not, the words like "my queen, precious, beautiful and on and on". As any latin american country, people here are very emotional. They can call "my love" anyone. They always fall in love with everybody. That's why such an issue like faithfulness is not very know here. In the same time there is about 80% of christians. And their love to God they express with the same emotions. If dominicans become a real Christians they become very passionate about their faith. They going to proclaim the Word everywhere they go, listen christian music and very loud at their work and homes. Lot's of scriptures like "I love Jesus", "Bavaro for Christ", "Repent, Jesus is coming", "Jesus is my savior", all over, on the cars, on the door of their stores, on the walls. EVERYWHERE!! JESUS, JESUS, JESUS. That's amazing. There is no need to make a outreach the way we used to do it in Russia or Europe, so the people could hear a Good News. The majority of population have herd it. But what happened, many have knowledge about God, but not walking close to Him.

So, after one week in Hatoy Mayor, i moved on the cost to Bavaro/Punta Cana. I've got a job as a tourguide for russian tourists. I had a chance to see many gorgeous place, to swim in the Careeben sea during the trips to the islands Saona and Catalinita. I went to the capital Santo Domingo. But the God showed me that it wasn't His will to me to continue, because i wouldn't have time to participate in the ministry, because that is my purpose of being here, to minister to these people, that what i was praying about, and i need to be focused. So i quit a job.

When i quit a job i was taking away an apartment where i was living, which was rented by a company for me.God was faithful to provide me another place to stay. It was a house of one old lady, Pastor Pascual' mother. He is a pastor of a young Pentecostal church here i attend. He was impacted by my decision to leave a job in order to be able to serve God. And also God leads him to support me here in all my ministry and life. I also go to the baptist church, where the Word of God is preach very good. Calvary Chapel is a grate balance between these two types of denominations, but there is no one in this country.

We had here a big evangelistic campaign. Square of people worshiping God on the open air, preaching of different pastors, healings, casting of deamons. This last one was something very new to me to see.God provided me another job. I work as a concierge in 5 stars hotel Gran Bahia Principe. This job gives me an access to many latinos who works here, who i can minister to. It gives me a place to live, food, insurance and bit more time for the ministry.

In reality very little time. Me and Kike we went to the christian concert which took place here in Bavaro, and then participated in in the christimas help to poor families' kids. See the pix.

Deja me presentarles mi amor, mi novio lindo cubano. Nos conocimos ya hace un mes mas o menos y Dios impeso su obra preciosa en nuestras vidas. Kike conocio al Senor ya hace tiempo, luego se aprato y de nuevo reconcilio cuanodo nos conocimos. El Senor es el centro y el base de nuestra relacion y nosotros cada dia crecemos en nuestra vida personal con El unos atraves del otro. Nosotros hemos entregado todo en las manos de Dios y solo El sabe que va pasar con nuestras vidas, y nosotros solo podemos cada dia buscar Su voluntad. Por lo menos ahora nosotros nos queremos mucho y pedimos que si es la voluntad de Dios que nuestra relacion duraria para siempre.

Let me introduce you my love, my handsome cuban friend. We´ve met each other about one month ago more or less, and since then God started His preciouse work in our lifes. Kike have got to know the Lord a while ago, then he walked away, and then reconciled with Him when we´ve got to know each other. The Lord is a center and a basement of our relationship and we grow evry day in our relationsip with God through each other. We gave up everything in God´s hands and only He know what will be in the future, and we just can seek for His will every day. At least right now we love each other very much and asking God that it will be forever if He will

Eso es un amigo mio dominicano, se llama Isidro. Le conosi el primer dia de mi estancia en Bavaro. El trabaja de insructor de tenis. Le hable de Dios, y muchas veces cuando pasaba por hotel, siempre le saludaba. El como muchos dominicanos tiene un ninito, pero no esta casado.
Pobre empiso creer que se enamoro conmigo. Tenia que dejar de verle, para que no sufra... Pero es muy buena gente y ojala un dia Dios va a tocar su corazon

This is my dominican friend. His name is Isidro. He works as instructor of renis. I shared with him about the Lord and often when i was passing by the hotel i went to greet him. Like many dominicans he has a kid not beeing married. Pure guy start to think that he falled in love with me. So i had to stop seeing him for not to make him suffer.. But he is really nice guy and i hope one Day God will touch his heart

Warm and even hot gretings from Caribiean. God is so faithful, He cosed the door to Mexico nd opened another one to Domenican Republic. It's alrady one week and couple days as i'm here in the 30C degree. First week i was in the home of one domenican baptist family of my friend Elio.
In general Domenican Republic is a very poor country and 90% of population have very dark skin, many imigrants from Haity who are totaly balck like africans.
The town i lived called Hato Mayor del Rey. There is almost no whote people at ll. So yo can imagine what a curiosity i was there. People in generaly very joyfull, open and receptful. Everybody greets evrybody, no matter if you never saw his person before. You can enter to any house to talk about God as much as you want, they always are welcome to talk.
with my host brother who is a pastor of one poor baptist church in a poor town on the cost whih called Mitches. We went from door to door visiting people, talking, encouriging, praying for them and sharin the Gospel with those who don't know or a bit confused.
Honestly i'm amazed to se soooooooooo much blivers here. Scritures from Bible all over, chistian music from hair salon, shops, cars. If you give someone on the street a track he or sh going to read it all right the way, or if this person in hurry he going to say thank and will keep it in his bag or a poket. Many non belivers have christian family members or friends so the gospl is not something new for them.
Elio and his family recived me as a part of the family gave me the room and tried to protect me from all possible and impossibl evil. And i praise God for them. The only issue i had a hard time with was a difference of Fundamental Conservative Baptist Church from what i'm used to.

Today is a third day as i moved to the cost of Bavaro and Punta Cana where i've got a job of tourguide in russian travel agency. I was given an appartment, opportunity to eat in the hotels where e have our tourists, medical insurence in one month and a contract until the middle of May. I see it as God's provision. I have more oportunity to mov around by my own and to be able to share with lot's of people here. I didn't find a good church here yet, so please pray for me that God would bring me to the right place an to the right people. Pray for devine appointmets and for boldness and God's guidness. Pray for my time with the Lord, that i would always be feeded on the Word and have closnes with Jesus, that He would bring me into more deep relationship with Him and ould teach me many things here. Pray for saftines, that God would gard my life from all the evil and bad people who want to use foreigners.

Saludos cordeales de Caribiean. Dios es fiel y Su fidelida es grande y increible, El serro la puerta a México y abrió la otra a la República de Domenicana. Ya hace día una semana y pico como estoy en n pais donde hace 30 grado C. Primera semana pase en la casa de una familia domenicana Bautista de mi amigo Elio. En general Domenicana es un país muy pobre y los 90% de población tienen piel muy oscura, muchos imigrantes de Haity que son totalment negros como africanos. La ciudad donde viví se llamo Hato Mayor del Rey. Casi no hay gete blanca. Entoncs imaginen que curiosidad yo fue para ellos. En general la gente muy alegres , abiertos y hospetables. Todo el mundo saluda a todo el undo, aunque quisas no les conosen. Ustedes pueden entrar a cualquier casa para hablar del Dios, ellos siempre estan disponible para hablar. Con mi hermano Elio que me dio alojamiento y tambienes el pastor de una iglesia de Bautista en una ciudad pobre en la costa que se llama a Mitches. Fuimos de una puerta a otra puerta visitndo la gente, hablando, apoyando, orando por ellos y compartiendo el Evangelio con los que no saben o estan confundidos. Sencermente me sorprendio cuanto cristianos esan por aqui. e puede ver pasajes de la Biblia por todo el lado, música cristiana en la piluqueria, en las tiendas, coches. Si usted da a alguien en la calle un folleto cristiano el va a ir leendo lo, o si esta persona esta de prisa te agradesca y lo guadara en su bolsa o bolsilo. Mucha gente que no son ceentes tienen miembros de la familia o amigos cristianos así que el Evangelio no es algo nuevo para ellos.
Elio y su familia me recibieron como la parte de la familia. Me dieron el cuarto e trataban de protegerme de todo el mal posible y impossible. Yo doy gracias al Senor por ellos. Lo único que me costo fue la diferencia de la iglesia de Bautista conservadora fundamental de lo que yo acostumbre. Hoy es un tercer día como me trasladé al coste de Bavaro y de Punta Cana donde tengo un trabajo del tourguide en la agencia de viajes rusa. Me dieron un appartmento, oportunidad de comer en los hoteles en donde tenemos nuestros turistas rusos, seguro médico dentro de un mes y el contrato hasta los mediados de mayo. La veo como la voluntad de Dios. Tengo más oportunidades de moverme mi sola y poder compartir de Jesus con mucha gente aquí. No encontré una buena iglesia aquí todavía.

Oren porfavor que Dios me guiara al lugar corecto y a la gente quales El quiere. Oren para que Dios me dara los encuentros divinmos y para que sea valiente y para que Dios me guia. Ruegue por mi tiempo con el señor, eso que estaría siempre feeded en la palabra y tiene closnes con Jesús, que él me lleva a una relación más profunda con él y que me enseña muchas cosas aquí. Oren para la segurida, para que Dios queide mi vida de todo el mal y la mala gente que desean aprocechar de los extranjeros.

La dejo parada alla diciendo que va a fumar la marijuana. Ella estaba celosa primera de que su esposo hababa conmigo, una mujer que ella no conose. Cuando el se fue yo la invite para dar un paseo y el me hablo de todo su dolor aserca de su esposo y de como todo va mal. La invite a la cafeteria de la iglesia y alla le hable de Dios. Hermana Antjie hable con ella en aleman y espero que Dios va hacer creser restas semillas.

Later she came around, and he was veru rood with her. He left her there on the street and went to smoke a marijuana with his friends. First Zukita was jaliouse t see her husband alking to me, because she didn't know me . When he left i invited her for a walk and then to the church cafe where i share about the Lord with her and then one sister in Christ antije talk to her in german as wel and i hope that God wll make this seed grow.

La iglesia en Freiburg tiene el ministerio para la gente de la calle y los panks. Cuando fue con ellos no tenia ni idea de como me voy comunicar y q puedo hacer, por q no hablo aleman. Hemos llegado alla y estos hombres duros astaban descutiendo de sus problemas con la policia. Y de repente me escuche alguien hablar algo parecido al ruso. Fueron de Estonia y Polonia, por eso puedo hablar con ellos. Mas de todo tenia oportunidad de hablar con este senor Victor (a la derecha en la foto) y comparti con el del Senor y orar con el.

The church has a ministry to homless and panks. When i went with them i had no idea what i can do, since i don't speak German. We came there and these tuff guys were very loud talking about some of their problems with police and so on. And suddenly i've heard someone speaking a language very close to russian. So i came doun and ask if they speak russian. They were from Estonia and Poland, so i had a chance to them. Most of all i had a chance to talk to this guy (right in pic) share with him and pray for him

Soldado herido, Injured solder

2006-11-03T08:27:00.000-08:00

Otra vez fue para la comida con los soldados heridos en la guerra de Irak. A mi lado estaba sentado un chico joven de 21 ano, que tiene todo el cuerpo herido. Pero en realidad su corazon aun mas herido que su cuerpo. Su amigo murio a su lado. Yo senti tantas ganas de compartir el amor de Dios con el, y la guiansa del Espiritu fue tan furte hasta que me dolio seguir callada.

Luego le hable. Le dije es un milagro de Dios que el esta vivo que Dios tiene propositos para el, que le ama mucho. El chico me estaba escuchando muuuuy atento, y mientras que segi hablando, su ojos se llenaban con las lagimas, por que el Espiritu de Dios le tocaba muy profundo. Este dia cumplio solo dos semanas desde que regrese de Irak. No se por donde el anda ahorita, pero se que fui un encunrto divino y que Dos me utiliso.

Once again i went to the dinner with an injured troops who came fro Iraq. At the table beside me there was a guy who was 21 yo who was ijured all over. In reality his heart was injured even more then his body. His friend died on his eyes. I felt so bad like sharing with him about God's love and how God was leading me to do, to the point it hurted id i would kept silant. Finnaly i talked to him. I saod that is God's mirical that he is a life and that God has His purposes for him and that God loves him very much. The guy was listerning very attentivly and while i was talking, his eyes were fullfilling with tears, because Holy Spirit was touching him in a very deep way. It was just two weeks since he came back from Iraq. I don't knw where he is now, but i know that it was Devine appointment and that God used me.

My first adventures in Germany

2006-10-10T03:55:00.000-07:00

So, this is already a week since I’ve got to Germany. Since I’m staying with my friend Captain Young almost at the Air Force military base, I’ve got to see many interesting things never been thinking I will see.

First, when I’ve just landed and Gabriel came to pick me up, there was another girl, I mean lutenant Andrea who came from the Air Force base Aviano which is in Italy. They both were leading a young officers conference which took place here in Ramstein’s base all that week.
So since it impossible to move around without a car here I had to go to the base with them every early morning. So, for me it was quite interesting to see all these young officers (from Germany, Italy and Turkey bases) in their forms. Beside their meetings with generals, they had some very exited tours which I had a chance to join.

One was to the military air terminal, where I’ve got to see airport itself and different militaries who are diploid to some destinations, like Iraq and so on, while they’ve been waiting for their flight.
The fun part was when we had a chance to get to see military planes and even sit on the pilot’s seat. One plane was very small and modern and another one a bit bigger and a bit older. In the bigger one pilot John explained us about some stuff inside and about what kind of flights they have to make. And Baghdad, Iraq is one of main destination. John even missed recent soccer championship here in Germany, because he had to be there in Iraq. Later one he shared with me that the job they did was transporting the troop, taking injured troops back to Germany or any other base and also transporting prisoners from one place to another there Iraq. Pilots are not supposed to see those prisoners, so they would cover their faces with a mask. When John asked once what all these people did so they in prison now, he was very shocked to hear, that many didn’t do anything really harsh or they their case is just in process, the case to find out is there are guilty or not. One and a half year to wait for a court just to find out that may be this person is not guilty. And as John says there are people of all ages, from very young one to the very old and it broke his heart to see it.
By the way John or Juan is you wish is Guatemalan, and I recognized right the way. That’s interesting that no matter where I am, God always bring me to Hispanics. So after his explanation in the plane I spoke to him in Spanish which was a grate bridge to get a new friend God can use me for.

On Tuesday we had a dinner with two injured solders. One was 28 and another just 20. When they’ve been asked to share their experience with us, they young one wasn’t able, to painful it was for him. My hear broke when I saw this pain and lack of hope in his eyes.

This projest of support of US injured troops is taking place every Tuesday. First they give them an opportunity go to the store and choose any close they like and then to attend a dinner in “Mama West” restaurant. I had a chance to get to know this “Mama”, a wonderful black lady who cook for this injured troops for free in her family owned restaurant. Her name is Brenda, but everybody calling her just “mama”. So when she spoke to us, she said that while she actually cooks, she pray over this meal and also she pray for the people who are going to eat it. I really loved, what she said and when she finished I came up and told her about it, and I also asked is there something I can pray for her. She was really touched. She is only believer in all her big family and her heart desire is to see her family saved. I really saw the joy of the Lord in her and a grate servant heart she has. She asked if she can be my black “mama”. I said “yes”.

And being honest, I had a hard times in communicating, just sometimes not finding a common ground with these people. Those of you who knows me, you know how easy I can make friends with people, but one thing I forgot, is that people of the world can be my biddies, but very seldom real friends. I mean not that they don’t care about each other, but if I don’t do the work they does or sometimes not catch up the converstion about what ever their daily life is about, I just out of this fellowship. It happened even when my friend Gabriel was around… But God is helping me. I always feel Hs presence, so even when i'm along, i'm not longly and that is good.

I know that God never do anything by accident and if He allowed me to get here, to be where not everybody gets, that mean He has His planes. My heart is to touch as many lives as I can. And I already thankful to the Lord that He allowed me to share about Him with some officers I had a chance to meet. So if you read that please pray for open door, hearts, divine appointments, boldness and more of His love to all these people.

I also have got an opportunity to drive here. You know, I just love to drive, but since in Russia I don’t have a car, I don’t have a lot of experience. The first (and actually, the only one) car I drove here was Gabriel’s van. Not that I wanted to drive exactly the van, I like small cars much better, but it what we had then. So my first time was late at night when I drove back home. Gosh what a stress, and what en excitement. Another day, Gabriel gave me this van to drive on the base to get to the gym (By the way, gym is really, really cool and modern here). That was an experience! First I didn’t have enough strength to put down, ohh forgot how it’s called in English, hmm emergence stick, it’s on your right, down beside your seat. So I had to ask a passing by officer to help me, silly I know. Then I strolled couple times, so another guy helped me to turn on engine and said: ”Drive carefully”. So I drove, almost to the gym, just mistaken and passed my turn, almost got to the military terminal where I not supposed to be. Oh my gosh, I strolled so many times, but finally I did it I got there. Later on I drove to the store and was very proud of myself. But, there was another day. I was trying to pull back the van I bummed into construction track. Man, I just didn’t feel how big the care I drove is. It wasn’t a big accident, but I broke some little part of this track. You can see a picture. Praise God Gabriel got out of the building to see if General was coming, so he came and saved me. We had to call police and declare about the accident, so that insurance company could deal with this issue and though it costed Gabriel lot's of money. Really bad! Here more pictures of that. So that was another experience. The bad thing is that Gabriel doesn't entrust mi his car anymore, but it's ok i might wouldn't do it eather.

One of these days we’ve been participating in community social project. We’ve been planting flowers in the local dinosaurs’ park. See pix.

On Thursday all those young officers and me, we went to Verdun, France where in World War 1 was a battle between Germany and France. That was a good time, when I had a chance to get to know these officers. Most of them are of my age, some even younger. I just imagine myself being an officer and have all those responsibilities these guys have. Wow.

What else. On Friday Gabriel, Andrea, Michel and I we went small German town Bernkastel-Kues at the Mosel river. It is so beautiful small town with traditional painted buildings, castle and vineyards. Friday night we had a dinner at the local small restaurant where Germans have been having a good time eating, drinking and singing their traditional songs.

On sunday i had a chance to go to my home church Calvary Chapel here in Kaiserslats or loke americans call it K-Town. It's always good to be with a family, even if you didn't know that family before. I was welcomed there and i hope i can help them out a bit in their ministry. Many militaries and their families go there too.

I've just got an invitation from Mexico and i'm going to start my visa process. I hope it will work out if God's will.

My way to Germany

2006-10-04T03:08:00.000-07:00

On the way to Germany i passed one day in Finland. It was really good day. My Brazilian friend came to pick me up at the train station and brought me to the house of one sister from Domenican Republic. This day Everaldo and his family moved back to Brazil, so i went to the airport with them. On the way back i saw a guy singing in the metro, really beautiful voice. My peruvian sister said that his parents chirsitan missionaries and he speaks different languages, so i felt like God was leading me to come and talk to him. It was sad to find out that he walked away from the Lord. But God keeps sending to him His people to remind about how much He loves him.
Next morning i took a train to Tampere where i had to get a plane. When i've got there i had a problem to get a bus to go to the airport. Because if i would wait untill 4 pm and my flight was at 5:25 i could just miss it. I tried to stop a taxi, by just lifting a hand, like we do it in Russia, but it didn't work. And all this time i was praying that God would help me out.
Tha's good that in Finland almost everybody speaks english, so i stoped and ask one man how i can get a taxi, and he said that he can just call it for me. And he did.
So i've got my taxi and we moved toward th eairport. Driver's name was Dolma and he was surprised that i was russian. We had a grate talk on the way, so i even had a chance to share a bit about the Lord with him.
Raynair airlines are chip, but not the most confortable ones. But i praise God that even though my ears were blocked when we were landing, it didn't heart too bad like it was many times before when i flied.
So evrything went well and i've got to Germany.

Hard Rock and Easy Way to Heaven - Just believe

2006-09-25T11:20:00.000-07:00

First I was thinking that I will share here about every single day I’ve spent with Chino Hills team, but… I was coming back home so late and so tired so I hardly could get to the shower and to my bad. And right now when the team is left I think that I just do a summary of what God has been doing all this past week.So, we went to old city Volhov, which is 2 hours bus drive from St.Petersburg. In the bus I’ve got a new buddy, bass guitar player Adam. El defenetivamente tenia pinta de latino. I said he looked latino to me, and you know that Paulina is always where are latino, haha. So, it was grate chance to get to know this brother and to see a guy who love the Lord with all his life, and really handsome by the way. Happy for you Stephanie (Adam’s wife), good choice. We tried to speak a little bit of spanish with Adam, because he has some mexican roots. The classical phrase was "obtienes naranja?"—"what?" He wanted to ask if I have an orange. Any way. I just want to say that I found a grate friend and I’ll miss him more then any other team member. May God bless his heart.In Volhov we’ve been received by local evangelical church where we organized a concert with some youth program. Before the concert started we just went to the streets of the city inviting people and talking to them about the Lord. Me and Robert we’ve talked to one old man Iliya who was very open to talk. Robert explained him the way of salvation and we’ve prayed with him so that Iliya can receive Jesus into his life. I don’t know if this old man really understood this massage and what he did by saying this prayer, God knows, but he was grateful that we cared enough just to come down and to talk to him.

Thirthday, Friday and Saturday we had Christian rock concerts. During the day we’ve been passing around free invitations on the streets, so up to thousand lifes been really touched by God on this 3 days. The music was really good and very professional. Honestly Rock is not my stile of mucis, but I’ve learn to appreciate it as well, though I believe that it’s not the only music we can reach out people by.

Last day was awesome, grate conversation. All those young people never expected to think or talk about life and it’s meaning at the dark rock club. So it like Jesus who always been around sinners, eat and spent time with them, though never participated in their sin. But being with them He could touch their lifes and minister to them. So we as christians shouldn’t apart ourselves from the world, but be light in this world.

Another news. I’ve got european visa and already this thirthday I’m going to Finland and on 30th of September I fly to Ramstein, Germany. I’m planning to stay there about one month or so and while I’ll be there I will try my best to make a Mexican visa, if God’s will or any other door. I just want to be flexible and sensitive to His guiding me.

1st day with Chino Hills missionary team

2006-09-18T12:26:00.000-07:00

It was really nice day of getting to know each others, team and translators. I have 3 other translators with me and group made of 6, one of them is Ukrainian adopted girl.
The day started with devotion all the topic of which of about being united, being one team and all this kinda stuff.
First I wasn’t that much impressed with a group of americans I’ve got, but then I discovered that they are cool. Especially Robert, the leader of our small group. He is just so funny and on fire to speak about Jesus. As soon as we’ve got to the square we’ve doing an outreach, he started the conversation right the way, and God gave us a really open guy (Andrey), who spoke english and I was just sitting beside and quietly praying. We even came to the point if Andrey wants to receive Jesus, but it was too serious decision to make it right the way. But he allowed us to pray for him and hope he’ll come to the concert the american team is organizing.

Beside that we've been in the parkoutside the city when all our team about 40 people mad a huge cercule and we prayed for Russia, it's people. The sunshined and all the picture was just beautiful.
Tomorrow we are going to Volhov city where we going to spend whole day wisiting one orphanage there and doing some evangelism there.
I’m looking forward for more divine appointments.

Buscando el Reino de Dios primero...

2006-09-15T12:08:00.000-07:00

Pues el ultimo tiempo estaba pensando y orando mucho de lo que Dioa quiere y de donde me voy. El Senor me mostro que tiene todo el control y que no va pasar nada si El no lo va a dejar a pasar. Toda la tierra pertenece a Dios y El puede utilisar me en cualquier lado. Yo tenia que entregar todos mis planes, suenos y anelos a El completamente para ver Su mano y para que me da lo que El quiere. El 18 de septiembre veremos si me van a dar la visa Finlandia y para que tiempo, entonces voy a ver si voy a poder ir a alemania y visitar Gabriel y descansar alla y realisar mas viajs con el a los paises sercanos.
Otro que yo no estaba segura si yo tengo que inentar de conseguir la visa Mexicana o buscar el camino a Costa Rica por que no me hace falta la visa. Costa Rica me atraye mucho mas, pero parece que la puerta no esta abirta ahorita mismo, hasta Jaime Siman, el director del ministerio "Palabra para America Latina" no conose pastores de alla. Ya dije a mi abuelo y la mama de Mexico, y pues Dios dijo en Su Palabra de que si mis caminos le agrada El va " a dar paz enter mis enemigos" y yo. Y si claro mi mama no durmio la primera noche, pero luego empeso a pensar de que es posible. Vamos a ver que Dios va hacer de todo eso.
La semana que viene voy a servir con un grupo misionero de Chino Hills California. Antes de servir a todas las naciones hay que servir un poco a mi propia. Asi vamos a ir a orfanatorios, organisar unos conciertos y prgramas para los jovenes.
Y manana el sabado vamos a picnic, mi Dianita va a bautisarse. Lindo. Solo frrrrrrrrio. Hoy dia hacia +8 grado. Pobrecita, que paso de fe hace esta nina. Y luego vamos a la casa de otra hermana mexicana Areli para nuestro reunion latino. Eso me da mucho alegria por que no solo que quien reuno la gente en mi casa.
Bueno, chao hasta la otra vez

ARGENTINA

Tango

One day i'll get there..

2006-08-31T22:24:00.000-07:00

What a day I was 31 of august. I was working with a couple of Argentinean Jews Abraham y Ester. A while ago Iranian Jews, now Argentinean. Ok God You are not taking all the nations to me, You are also taking particularly Your chosen nation. Not too bad. On the way to Petergof (thsars summer residence) I didn’t say a word about the place we are going. All the way to Petergof we’ve been talking about Jews, live of Jewish community in Russia, Israel, Lebanon and all what are deals with that. On the city tour we even visited a Synagogue, where I’ve met a guy I used to go to Israel with. His name is Boris, but as all Jews can choose a Jewish name is their original one is not, Boris chose to be David. (I remember when I was in Israel I decided no to choose Jewish name for myself. God knows my name anyway) So Boris (David) showed us around there and my Argentineans were very happy about it. Boris visited my church once and in Israel we use to talk a lot about God and faith. This time he again tried to get into the discussion that as a Jew I can’t believe in Jesus, but I just decided no to go there, since we’ve talked about it already and didn’t came to any conclusion.
Mean while I also had a chance to share my faith with Argentineans. Serving to His people is an honor, really.
The bad part of that day is that I’ve lost my cell phone with all my dates: work numbers, Latino numbers, and many other telephone numbers, which I wouldn’t be able to restore, unless these people will call me. Bummer!..L
Right the way I had to buy a new cell phone, because without a phone I’m without connection with the world, I can’t work with out it. And even I hated to spend my trip saved money for the new phone, I had no choice. I’ve got a new one. Technically better one, but I have to learn how to work with this yet.
And yeah, before I’ve lost my phone I’ve got a massage from my mom that she is got cold and fells very bad. This night I was supposed to go to Finland, where my Brazilian-Finish friends organizing a goodbye gathering with other Brazilians. And even the day was long and I was tired I was planning to go to Finland anyway. I even had my travelling backpack with me. But… I staid. My mom was in need much more then my Brazilian friends. I remembered how Pastor Lloyd Pulley was sharing on the conference in the church lately.
"Are the people you love convinced, that you love them? What do you do for that?". I knew that very often my mother doubts my love to her, because I’m always busy and have no enough time for her. Now she’s got sick and I’m leaving to Finland for a goodbye party, which is not the biggest testimony of my love and care. But I knew that if I would stay it would be. And indeed she was very happy and encouraged when last night I came to her place with all my travelling bags, exhausted, but willing to bless her and be there for her.

Test Him?

2006-08-31T22:19:00.000-07:00

"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this", says the Lord Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it." Malachi 3:10
During all my christian walk the topic of tithe and offering was one of those I would go around. When I just got to know the church and my mom was extremely against of it, one of the acusement she would use, is that people from the church or the church at self would take my money. I knew that tithe and offering never have been an obligation in Calvary Chapel. And I would always hear the verse from II Corinthians 9:7: "Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver"
So every time when this offering plate would come to me I felt kinda compulsion and so I decided no to give or to give well may be 10 or 20 rubles (less the 1$) just so that my conciseness wouldn’t bother me and my finance situation wouldn’t suffer, because I always had just enough. So I was thinking if I would take of from my just enough, I wouldn’t have enough anymore.
Then when I started to work, I still had just enough, but now I was more willing to bless someone in need if I felt God was leading me to. And if He did I obeyed believing that God would supply any way. But in this case I knew what my money were used for and I kinda liked it more. I lived like this for long time already, but…
Couple of days ago one brother in Christ from Honduras asked me a question without any foundation. He asked me if I tithe. Well….you know…I said. Well…not really. "You should do it, it’s God’s will for us" and then he quoted me this verse 10 from chapter 3 of Malachi. And another one 3:8 "Will a man rob God? Yet you rob me. But you ask, ‘How do we rob you?’ "In tithes and offerings"
Oo.. what does it mean? Have I’ve been robing God all these years or what? But God, way do You need all those money? All I have is Yours anyway…
"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house."
Food! Very practical need. Church needs finance to be able to run the ministry. God want to bless the church with that through it’s people. Every family has to have a family budget to be able to eat, cover the bills and do things. And if we as a part of the family won’t invest in this family we won’t be able to do many things as a family.
But more, God says: "Test me in this", says the Lord Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it."
God, You want me to test You? How come? You me to set apart some finance for your work in this World and this way see how You will bless me though that even more then I gave You? Wow.
Here is where I need wisdom. Because it’s not a deal with God. Ok God I’ll give You 10$, so You can give me 10 tomes more. But just give knowing that it all for Him, and about Him, all your life belongs to God, so don’t even worry that you wouldn’t have enough for yourself if you would give away. He knows your needs. Don’t depend on money, depend on God, when you in trust your life not to finance which rule in this world, but to God, You’ll se His miracles and His hand in Your life.
The accomplishment of my dreams to go to other countries to minister to people so much depends on finance, which makes me think but if I’ll make an offering to the church. I won’t have enough for my trips. But, if God wants you there, He’ll take you there even without all your money. He has all the treasure of this world.

VIETNAM and it's people

2006-08-27T03:20:00.000-07:00

The second day with Vietnamese. We went to the Petergof, tsars’ summer residence. Once again I was given a second guide. Petergof palace is much smaller then Hermitage museum, so they had to split in two group any way. Tour leader Dennis was running from one group to another adding in his language the most important information from his point of view. Well, what ever.
After the palace visit he gave all the group a free time in the park, meanwhile we went to the café to have some lunch.
Couple weeks ago I was at Calvary Chapel pastors conference in my city and I liked when pastor Gayle Irvin said, that we all are like a book, we all have our unique stories of life. So that mean when we ask someone to share their story of life we can see God’s hand moving though this life. So even though my Vietnamese and his friend are not really walking with the Lord I decide to ask them their lifes stories.
Man, what a dramatic lifes people could have.
Dennis story:
He was born in Vietnam, in the south (the Northern part is communistic part) but when hi was a kid his parents immigrated to France (Vietnam was also a colony of France for a while, so many Vietnamese speak some French). When he was just 8 years old one older lady raped him. He says that he even liked it, so since then pure boy became addicted to sexual relationship until he has got married. He was married 4 times though. Dennis says that he is Catholic and as many catholic (there are exceptions) believes that prayer and good deeds is enough for his walk with the Lord, which is mean that there is no need to read the Bible every day. Read it once all and you are ok.
I shared with him about manna which was given just for one day, because God wanted daily communication with His children, He wanted they come to Him and ask daily, in the same manner a spiritual bread. There is no way to eat for one week, one month and more over all your life beforehand and not to be hungry anymore. It’s like we can survive without food a while, but then we’ll get weak and even could die.
Dennis’s friend Tu also emigrated from Vietnam when he was a kid. There back in South Vietnam his father was a major, he was taken in jail by communists for 4 years. Tu’s mother organized his escape first from jail and then from the country. At night the crossed the border by boat and have got to Indonesia. Tu have an adopted sister who was a prostitute, but have got married if American man (one of her clients), so she sponsored Tu and his family to come to US. Tu says that he is an atheist. I gave him some Christian trucks, which I hope will touch his lifer. One of them is funny brochure, which called: "Atheist test"
I was wondering why Vietnamese immigrate to the country the had a war with. I mean many Vietnamese (all ages) were killed, women raped, and now they prefer US to Vietnam. As Tu explained, Vietnam was separated for two parts, South and the North, like Korea nowadays. The Northern part always have been controlled by communists and the south one was American ally. And because all my tourist group were from the South they all believe that US was helping them to get rid of communism. That why they don’t see anything wrong in immigrating to the country of their allies.
That day I was soooooo tired and even had a headache. At night we went to the Vietnamese restaurant. The food was good, light as many Asian cuisine and not spicy. Good for my pure stomach, heh.

So praise God for everything. For financial blessing…
Why 3 dots? Because, here starts another topic.
God’s will for my finace life…

26.08 TO ALL THE NATIONS

2006-08-27T01:40:00.000-07:00

God’s Word says: go to all the nations and preach the Gospel and get baptize them in the name of Jesus. In my case God is taking nations to me right where I am. Yesterday I had to work as a second guide with a group of American Iranian Jews, nice mixture, heh. To be honest I don’t really like work with the tourists who among themselves speak the language I don’t understand. But if He decides to bring me to this lifes I just can’t refuse it. So they happened to be nice people, mostly elderly people, but all kept saying how nice and gorgeous I am. Most part of the group went with Tanya the main guide and some staid with me, mostly the young ones and the elderly who stuck in the line in the bathroom :) . You know this Hermitage museum is really huge and even when I cut a lot of from the route people still gets tired. Not many made I to the end, but those who did were very interested in what I was sharing with them. As I said the are Jews and in the morning they even visited a Sinagoge, so I was thinking that they should know at least spome stories from the Old Tastement. Not at all. You know Hermitage museum has a huge collection of art with a Biblical topic, so I just used the chance and shared about those Bible stories, even explaning the meaning, I mean speaking about God like if I would preach. One fa,ily who made it untill the end were very gratefull and they became even more exited when they found out that I’m also a Jew.

But when I said nations it means nations, today I had so funny and relaxed day I ever had. Yesterday Tanya said that I have to replace a guide who got sick or something. There is one russian expression "throwing to the tanks", which means a big challenge. And it sounded that way when she said, that I’ll have to work two days with 52 american Vietnamese. First I was nervicing, but then I said: "God you have your own reason why You sending me to these people. I know that You love them, give me the same love to them as You have. Let me serve them and bless them, and if you want to bless me though their finance I’m ok with that. I just want to see Your hand in that, I just want to trust it all into Your hands and if I’ll have a hard time with them, You’ll work it out somehow". So here I am standing with a sighn "Saigon voyager" and little by little small Asian people began surround me. They asked in English: "Are you a guide" – "Yes I am" – "Are you in High School?" –"No I’m even graduated University a while ago, I just look young" – "can we take a picture with you" – "sure"
There were about 10 people who would come down to me and ask permission to take a picture with me. I didn’t know what to feel, like if I would be a model or a monument. I was hardly keeping from laughing.
Their tour leader Dennis is nice, he was translating to the Vietnamese all the way though and sometime even doing more job then I did. I would speak 5 minutes, he would translate all 15, and much more then I actually said. Or if he didn’t considered something important he wouldn’t translate it at all. Those who understood, good for them, those who don’t, so well. He made another guide to work for me in the Hermitage instead of splitting in two groups and then He did all the talking in the Isaac Cathedral. More I had his younger friend Tu jumping around me all the time and having fun flirting with me.
I don’t have tourist who wouldn’t ask me if I’m Orthodox Christian. And praise God most of the times it a grate witness opportunity. During the dinner I had a small conversation with Dennis about what I believe and what he believes as a Catholic. And I also shared a bit with Tu who said to me that he is an atheist. Any way, praise God for all.
Oh yeah I’ve learn some Vietnameze words:
Chao kwiwi – hello evrybody
Camen – Thank you
So you can see I have a lot of fun and blessing. I like this job, it’s a grate way to minister to the people, minister to the nations.
