Dear Pastors and Friends,
Our monthly video for February comes from Russia. Many have asked how our Russian missionaries are doing and how the war is affecting them. The war is not something we can discuss with them, either by phone or e-mail. Some of them are convinced their phone calls and emails are monitored since Putin’s government would consider anyone with ties to the United States as a potential “enemy of the state.” Therefore, our communications are kept to a minimum. However, recently we arranged to meet them in a nearby, somewhat neutral country. These face-to-face meetings were a great blessing. We learned much from them and were able to answer many of their questions for us. This video features Pavel Rumachik from the Moscow area. It is longer than our usual videos, but since opportunities to record videos of them will continue to be limited for the foreseeable future, we decided to share this one in its entirety:
In our next Slobodian prayer letter, which is due out in a few days, we will share in more detail how the war is affecting our Russian brethren as well as other interesting information concerning them. Therefore, if you receive our bi-monthly Slobodian prayer letters, you will get this information. If you are not receiving this or some of our other publications, you can subscribe at the following link:
