Ministering at Paide Baptist Church

We had good meeting at Paide Baptist Church. Paide is the city Raili was born and raised and lived there until moving to Nashville in 1995. Raili's grandmother used to go that church and even brought Raili along few times when she was a child. The current pastors even remember her grandmother. She used be bi-lingual, so she used to translate from Estonian into Russian for the Russian speaking people at the church. And now... Raili is translating from English into Estonian there... Interesting! Whenever I (Raili) read the scripture about the great cloud of witnesses cheering us on, I always think of my grandmother in heaven. We had a wonderful service at the church there, where we the pastors are our dear friends and we have several other friends there as well. We were leading worship with their team. We chose some older songs to sing so that the congregation could sing along easily and then we also chose couple of newer songs. (Way Maker and Worthy of it all.) The pastors wife said, they have been wanting to learn those songs with their worship team, but did not have anybody to teach them really. So, she was very happy that we picked those songs and sang it with them, now they learned them too! There was a wonderful presence of the Lord at the meeting, as people were worshipping along. At the end of service, we also prayed for several people. One young lady needed deliverance from depression and anxiety. She was in tears when Kris prayed for her. Later she testified, she was touched by the Lord and feels very different and totally free. Praise God!

Birthday Party and prayer gathering.

Today we had a wonderful evening at our friends Paul and Evi’s farmhouse. We were having a Birthday party for 2 of the ladies. One turned 61 and one 75. We grilled some meat, ate some salads and lots of good cakes! 

The weather was nice and we enjoyed the beautiful countryside of Estonia.

After eating we gathered in the house for prayer and worship. It was a great evening with our friends in Estonia.

time to go

 It's time to go again!

We are getting ready to leave for another trip to Estonia! This year will be our 25th year in ministry!

We will be there for 5 months this time. From April 30th to October 1st. 

We were not able to go there last year, because of covid 19. 

We own an apartment in Viljandi, Estonia, which is our home town. We also do a lot of ministry in Tallinn, the capital city. We plan on renting a place there for the summer as well. We believe the Lord has some good things in store for us for this year in Estonia. 

This picture was taken in Viljandi Baptist Church last time we were there, in 2019, preaching, singing, leading worship at that meeting. Looking forward to new ministry opportunities again. 

Many blessings to you all!

Ministering in Fire Church, in Tallinn, Estonia.

Dear Friend in Christ, 

Once again we are planning to return to Estonia.  We plan on leaving May 17h and returning the end of August. 

There are excellent opportunities for us to minister in Estonia and Finland. Churches want us to come back and minister to their people.  We are thrilled to have the opportunities to preach, teach, worship and do special music at different meetings. Over the last several years we have been experiencing a strong move of the Spirit as we work with the Body Christ and we are praying that this continues to move forward.

This is a very special trip for us because this summer we are celebrating our 20 year anniversary of doing mission work in Estonia! We are very thankful to God and his faithfulness for helping us accomplish many things through this ministry. When I think about all the different things we have been involved in during this time I am humbled by God’s exceeding grace helping us do this work. The main themes of our ministry have been sharing the Word and Spirit Of God through meetings, media and music.  It is our desire to keep running this race and be even more effective in the vision of impacting this part of the world for Christ. 

This is our second year to live in the capital city of Tallinn. We have made some new friends and ministry connections in that city and we do travel around Estonia as well.

Tallinn, Estonia. Capital city

Last few years we have been also ministering in Finland and have made some good ministry contacts there. We do wish to keep visiting the churches there as well.

Estonia 2014

We are right in the middle of our trip now. Have been in Estonia for 2 months and a week.

It's been interesting and challenging in many ways. But very rewarding at the same time!

When we first come from America, there is always a short period of adjusting to another country.
Thankfully, we have been here many times before, so we kind of know the routine.

But the first time you get to see your friends and family after long period of time is such a great and joyous event! There is truth in the saying, Distance makes the heart grow fonder.
Also, we enjoy going to the store and buying good Estonian food, which we do not have in America!
Raili especially misses some things, when in the States.

Estonia is very beautiful in spring and summer! Very green, beautiful nature. We live in the city of Viljandi , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viljandi
 it is a very accessible community with most points of interest in walking distance.
 Right behind our apartment building  is the hillside view of the beautiful Viljandi lake.

 

We have been praying for spiritual needs of this place for many years. And a new church that some friends of ours started has some very good momentum. It has been a real blessing to have had  the opportunity to be ministering in some of their services. Our hearts our very thankful for the faithfulness of God in  raising up this church. Some of the people from this church were recently baptized with our son Ryan, this was a very joyous event.

As soon as we got here, (actually already before , over the internet) we were invited to help with worship at some special meetings in capital city of Tallinn.

We are working with pastors Mati and Saima Kurrik , and their church. They hold special revival meetings in Tallinn, and they need worship leaders from time to time for these meetings.
We have been helping them about every couple weeks. Some of the meetings have been absolutely wonderful seeing the Lord pour out His Glory in some great ways. People have been coming to faith in Christ with testimonies of healings and victories as well. It has been in my heart for many years to be apart of revival meetings so this has been especially rewarding. During the worship we usually do
some of my original music in English and Estonian. The song's Revival Times and the Lord Is Here have been well received by the people, Praise God !
 The people that have been coming to the meetings , really have been entering in to the worship and the ministry.  We will resume with these  meetings in a few days and are believing for great things.                      
Raili is also translating at the revival meetings.
One of the minister 's who we recently met, is Juennine Fox from USA. She is having meetings in Finland and Estonia this summer and the Lord had us to be part of her meetings.
We have been blessed by her ministry and it has been a privilege to lead worship at her meetings and for Raili to translate her.
Here is a short video with pictures of her meetings.

And here are few pictures as well.

While not in Tallinn, at the revival meetings, we have been visiting other churches around Estonia  and ministered at some of them.

Here is a picture of us preaching at Türi Missions Church, that is our long time friend. Our ministry was well received. Praise God!
