April is the month of spring holidays. The people are more glad to listen to the truth when they are invited to church for different evangelistic programs. We didn't have the opportunity to organize special evangelistic engagements. However, we invited people to church to hear the Gospel on Easter and the other holidays. A lot of new people came and some who had been unfaithful to church. The children played an important part in this ministry, especially those who have non-Christian families. Their parents were very interested in the fact that while attending the Christian club their children began to change. The Lord is knocking at their hearts through their own children. Not long ago I understood that this ministry was becoming strategical and was the most successful. I got involved in this ministry because only a few ladies from the church were able to continue to work with the children. Once a month the children's group has a special program during the worship service.

Another evangelistic method is the prayer group of the ladies from the church who do not have a job. This group and myself often met in the homes of those who are suffering. The friends of those we visit often come to thier homes to. Some of their neighbors have invited us to their homes to share the Word of God. However, I mostly share the Gospel with the believers' neighbors. We work together. We want these meetings to become regular.

The ladies from the charity group and I gave packages to the old people from nursing homes and to the children from the orphanages. Sometimes we are asked to have an evangelistic program after the distribution of the packages. Nowadays some people only listen to the Gospel after one gives them a package. It is more and more difficult to minister. Please pray that people will have open hearts. The door for ministry is already open.

This month we also visited the Christians from Kamenka village. Man are a part of a large Pentecostal church of Ukrainians, while others come from a small group of Baptist Romanians. Both need organizational and spiritual help.
