Update From Estonia

                                                    

The ice is melting on Viljandi lake, and temperatures are nearly getting to 50 degrees Fahrenheit on warm days now. We are thankful to have gotten safely through the blizzard on our trip to Tallinn on Easter Sunday. I would say spring really starts in May here and that probably was the last significant snow (thank God). It has been a very long, cold, and snowy winter. The days here have already started getting longer, with the sun setting after 9 pm. It is the season to move about Estonia and be active in building the Kingdom Of God.

We have a lot going on now in our work here and are launching out into new areas of ministry.

Our Easter trip to Tallinn was to Grace Chapel, where I have been asked to help as a teaching pastor. The church has a great centrally located meeting facility in the city center. There is a nice faithful core group, and we believe this fellowship has great potential to impact Estonia for Christ. This is a international church and Estonians are attending as well.

Over the last year, new doors of ministry have opened up for us in the capital city of Tallinn. We have been involved in several meeting there with people who are hungry for God. A big part of our vision is to be a part of seeing a fresh move of the Spirit to change this nation. It is important to fan these flames of revival and continue to have and be a part of more services that facilitate the move of the Spirit. At the same time teaching the Word and laying a solid biblical foundation. Because we need a movement of the Word and Spirit working together to see the glorious things the Father has in store.

In our home town of Viljandi we have been helping a young couple, Veiko and Kirsika, start a new church. Veiko is a great piano player and it has been a real blessing worshiping together at these and other services. Our community has a very small percentage of believers and is need of a real move of God.

We are planning to have our first Spread the Fire Worship Meeting this spring for the Viljandi region of Estonia. It will be held at the new Viljandi Baptist Church building and several churches will be a part of this gathering. Prayer point: that there would be unity and that the spiritual atmosphere would change for the good.

A Great Harvest Field

During the winter Raili and I got caught in a snow storm and needed to spend the night in Tallinn. Our friend Jaana's place was available, but the catch was she lived in Lasnamäe.

I always heard this was a rough place and you better be careful if you find yourself there. Since we almost had a bad car accident that day, I thought it might be worth the risk lodging there for the night.

Jaana had been after us to be a part of the services that she and her husband Ahto had been having in Lasnamäe. Though Ahto had been working in Finland a lot (like many Estonian men do) and was not always there to help. The night we arrived there was a home fellowship so we were able to be a part of that. As we stayed there that night the Lord began to do surgery on my heart about this place. This bedroom community of Tallinn is the most populated community in Estonia. 116 thousand people live there. It is almost entirely the old soviet style apartment houses in close proximity of each other. In talking with Jaana that night we discovered that the small meetings they were having were the only evangelical work they knew of being done in this large community. Since that time I have preached twice at their Sunday meetings and the people were open responding to the gospel . Their ministry also distributes humanitarian aid and recently opened a second hand store that helps keep them visible with the people.

Ministry in Lasnamäe.

"Digger" can be thanked for this picture of Lasnamäe.

The need in this place hit me like a ton of bricks, I began to hear some of the desperate stories and my heart was really broken for these people. I know there are many places in the world like Lasnamäe, where the harvest is great and the workers are few. I sense the Holy Spirit stirring in me about this mission field. We want to do everything possible to help and encourage this couple and do what we can in building the Kingdom of God in Lasnamäe.

Wikipedia on Lasnamäe

Raili and I believe we can be more effective living in the Tallinn area. Our home in Viljandi is 160 kilometers from Tallinn. The cost of living is higher there, though God can make a way. I do believe that this is a new season of growth and change for us as we move forward in building God's Kingdom.

I believe that partnership is God's highest way to spread the gospel. The famous verse in Philippians 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
 Was written to the partners of the apostle Paul. If there ever was a season to bring in  the harvest it is the hour in witch we live. Raili and I would like you to consider partnering
with us to accomplish this important gospel work. We also want you to receive the
blessing that comes through partnership. I believe we can have a significant impact in
Lasnama and all the other ministry projects.

VALUE Of A SOUL

What does it matter to the Lord of us all

Creator of heaven and earth

When He looks down at one made in His own image

Greater than the sparrow that falls

He sees the value of a soul beyond the worlds treasures

Measured by the blood Jesus shed

Though it be wrecked and marred

There is healing by His scars

He showed us the value of a soul

If you think your life doesn't mean much any more

Just think what you mean to the Lord

If you were the only one, He would have still died for you

You were worth all that He went through

For you are a pearl of great price

That He sought after and bought with His life

Yes you are precious in His sight

See the love that He has shown to you
