Praises – Rejoice with us!
By God’s grace and your generosity, BIEM received $165,000 for our project to provide warm clothing and Scriptures for Ukrainian servicemen in active battle zones. This amount enabled us to respond churches’ request to provide for 1,650 soldiers known by their members. May the Lord use these gifts to soften hearts and to these servicemen’s eyes to their greatest need—Jesus Christ!
A BIEM missionary in Central Asia wrote, “One of our Afghan leaders just led a family of 6 Afghanis to faith in Christ!” Less than 24 hours later, that same missionary wrote, “Four more Afghanis, 2 men and 2 women, were just led to faith in Christ by 2 faithful college-age girls who started and lead a women’s Bible study for one of our Afghani refugee church plants.” Hallelujah!
In Ternopil, our new missionaries the Koops are thrilled that God provided a friend who is licensed in the technical aspect of electrical and plumbing work. By providing such a friend, who donated his time and expertise, the Lord greatly stretched the dollars you friends gave for construction materials to aid the Koops in the first phase of preparing their rough shell of an apartment.
We rejoice that our most recent shipment of humanitarian aid and supplies is being distributed to churches for their outreaches to their own respective communities. Praise God! Thanks for prayers!
Prayer – Pray with us!
We have scheduled BIEM missionaries Igor Fomichov and Pavlo Usach to visit America for 3 weeks in March. During this time, they will speak in churches and share firsthand about ministry in Ukraine during the war. Please pray for God to bless both the speakers and listeners during these meetings.
From one of our missionaries in Central Asia: “One of our Afghan leaders just led a family of 6 Afghanis to Faith in Christ. Praising God with His angels….” This is just one of multiple reports of former Muslims trusting Christ. Please pray for more such spiritual fruit in those lands!
This is the time of year when we begin preparations for Christian summer camps for kids and teens. Funding all our camps in multiple countries will require $50,000. Such dollar amounts seem huge to us, but not to God. He will send us caring Christians to help with finances. Might you be one?
BIEM plans to ship another 40-ft. container of supplies in the last half of March. Please pray that all goes smoothly with packing the container that we hope to purchase and deliver to Zdolbuniv, where it can serve as a permanent place to store items for the new Christian camp and church there.
