Before the outbreak of hostilities, Pastor Viktor Polunin’s church in Kyiv had about 70 people. Now, most of his church members had to evacuate and only six people from the original church remain.

“We decided to stay in order to show that the church does not leave people in difficult times and in order to use the current situation to preach the Gospel,” Pastor Polunin told Voice of the Martyrs Korea.


Warmly in Christ,
Pastor Foley and Dr. Foley

In our North Korea work, God's special forces are elderly North Korean women.

And now, not only are they evangelizing and discipling, but they are also translating the Bible!

We are “translating” the first copy of the Bible that was ever done in the Korean language into a modern NK dialect. The Bible was done in 1882 in an NK dialect, and our NK constituents are mostly elderly people, so they are really in their element!


Isaiah 55:11 tells us that God’s Word never returns to Him void. It always accomplishes His purpose.

Pastor and Dr. Foley tell us to not be deceived into thinking that our actions determine the course of history.

This is a wrong understanding of God's Word and of the purpose of the Holy Spirit.

Rather, it is God’s Word that is steadily moving the world and us onward to God’s purposes.

Please pray for our new Chinese radio broadcast. In the midst of increasing restrictions in China, we launched two new shortwave daily broadcasts. Pray for the Gospel to be clearly broadcast and heard in China over the next few months!
 

Please pray for the Ukrainian widow of 26-year-old Anatoliy Berezhny. Anatoliy died on March 6th while assisting a woman and two children who were attempting to evacuate from the area near Kyiv. He was an “IT Specialist” at his church in Irpin and he made a deliberate decision to lay down his life for Christ. It is evident in our ongoing conversation with his wife, that God is very near and present to her.
