"Study to shew thyself approved"

Alla began attending nearly 3 years ago resulting from Evangelism we had done in her apartment block. Due to poor health, and difficult home life, her attendance was sporadic.

Faithful Teacher

Even after our deportation in April 2002, Alla kept coming faithfully each Sunday PM for the Chronological Bible Lesson, learning the way of salvation as Miss Luda taught her each week.

Gift of Giving

Alla is notorious in our church family as a great giver, though extremely poor herself. Here, she gives to Cathy some vegetables from her garden. July 2003

Secret Sister

Though yet unsaved, Alla enjoyed the close fellowship offered thru the "Secret Sister" fellowships at church. Here, exchanging gifts with Luda.

Tell me of Jesus

Finally, after 6 months of consistent, faithful attendance Alla's heart breaks with conviction of sin, righteousness and judgment. Here, Pastor John re-explains salvation from Abel to Calvary. July 27 2003

SAVED!

Alla pictured here with Deaf Deacon Slava (from Simferopol Baptist Church) and Pastor John just moments after she repented and called upon the Lord Jesus to save her. What a joyous labour!
