The Word and Prayer!

January: a time for new beginnings. In January, we started the year with a faith conference in Irpen, Ukraine. This was a gathering of Ukrainian pastors, ministers, and missionaries. The Word was taught and we prayed together as the early church did in Acts 4. We prayed together concerning the situation in eastern Ukraine and many of the ministers continue to pray for an end to the bloodshed. In Acts 4:23, Peter and John returned to their company and prayed in unity after they’d been arrested. It’s great (as well as comforting) to be with your “own company” in challenging times. It was also a time of fellowship and very little sleep!
