Greetings From My Russian Friend

I just got an email from Alexander Chepurnoy, who is one of our missionaries serving in Minneapolis. He’s planting a Russian-speaking church there in the twin cities where there’s a large population. He just sent me this note – wanted to share…

Pastor Brandon,

I want to inform you, that on August, 2, 2008 we had the first baptism in the “ New Life” Church. We baptized 3 persons. It was special event in our church. We had baptism on the Weaver Lake. After baptism we had picnic in a park. I send to you some photo.

Thank you for prayers and the financial support of our ministry.

God bless you.

The church-planter
