Stas Karpenko Ufa Bible Ministries

Every time the dark times come
everyone starts to seek for the
truth. Holocaust, 9/11, the
coronavirus pandemic etc.
People start to think there got to
be something to cling to. Well,
we know what it is. It’s the
Church. Established by God to
be the pillar and ground of the
truth on this earth until His
returns. Far more than your local
fellowship it spans across the
earth. Those tiny and large buds
of the Body of Christ do exist on
all six continents. Some live in
freedom, some in abandonment
or even underground. But all
represent Christ on this earth,
His truth and His love. When the
times get darker, His Church
shines brighter.

ESL classes and Planning
We continue to conduct classes
and teach English as Second
Language for Kingdom’s
purposes. Please pray for us to
be creative in “preaching” the
good news without actual
preaching. In the light of the
recent events, we see our
students are being very
sensitive.
Pray for our next Workshop for
prospective leaders in April.
Also, pray for wisdom in
planning and choosing the right
dates for our summer activities.

Featured Leader
Vladimir was born when the
Soviet Union was about to
collaps. He went to Soviet school
and then to a trade college after
that. At the age of 14 he was first
introduced to the gospel. He
liked the fellowship with the
Christians but decided to choose
his own path. For 20 years he has
lived the life of a bumpy road.
Finally he surrendered to Jesus
and started to be His faithful
follower. He faced opposition
because of his decision from his
relatives but carried on. Now he
is on fire for the Lord and ready
to go to the ends of the earth for
Him. Please pray for this brother
to discern his spiritual gifts to
take his place in the body of
Christ.
Friends and Family
We thank the Lord for successful
completion of Tim’s half-year
exams. That is truly a blessing.
Now, Christina has started pre-K
classes. Please pray for both of
them to grow in the Lord and
their studies.
Please know that we deeply
appreciate your prayer about
this ministry. Thank you so much
for holding our hands for this
land!
