Goin Fishing Ministries Please continue to pray for the Christians in Ukraine. Those that we know have so far
been safe, though many of them lost their homes and had to relocate. Those remaining continue to hold church services where possible and spread the Word of God and help others with food and supplies as they are able. Missile attacks continue to cause widespread damage to the electrical grid as well as damaging buildings and killing citizens. For many, no electricity means no heat. This is a very serious problem as the cold weather months have arrived. Please pray for an ending of this terrible war. Much of the above is still true at this time.
From Bro. Mike Abbott: (earlier on 9/25/2024.) Please continue to pray for Kostya Tsepin. Bro. Kostya and his wife, Oksana, minister in Kramatorsk, Ukraine. He had emergency surgery for a gastric perforation. Please continue to pray for Brother Tsepin and for others in need in Ukraine. The war still rages. Thanks, Bro. Mike Abbott
