June 2012 Update (Urim Zogaj)


Thank you so much for praying for me and the ministry here in Malishevë. God has been working so much here in our church and the ministries He has opened doors.

-Children’s Ministry

When I asked to pray last time for God to open doors and reach out to the kids of our community, I just wanted to let you know now that I have seen the faithfulness of our God. Now we have two groups of kids that come to our church on Fridays.
In the first group there are 40 kids that come regularly. It is amazing how God is making that happen for those kids to come every week, even though their families are Muslims. Kids are coming and are learning Christian principals of life, for the first time they can hear that God loves them, cares for them, has a plan for them, they are sinners and need to be saved, and something like that they never had the opportunity to learn growing up as Muslim.
In the second group there are around 30 kids. They are older than the first group and praise God they can grasp easily the teachings of the Bible. I have been teaching them Bible Verses to learn and say it by heart so a lot of them now can say verses by heart.
Please pray that God will open their hearts to receive Christ.
Pray that the Kids will not stop coming because of their family influence.

Please pray for these kids they are from one family two sisters and one brother.
                           Their names are: Arbesa, Agnesa and Rrezart.


-Malishevë  Bible Study
I have been doing Bible studies once a week at church for believers.  Themes which I have been teaching are: The Authority of God’s word, God’s will, Prayer, Faith etc…
What is amazing about the Bible studies we have been doing is that God has been touching lives of the believers here in our church in Malishevë and changing their lives. Our church is growing. A lesson God has been teaching me is that I have seen the importance of feeding the believers here with the word of God and encouraging them in their walk with Christ.
Doing Bible studies have been such a blessing to see also non- believers being part if the studies so often.
Please you pray that God would touch all the youth who have been coming in our Bible Studies.
We have been very busy with teams reaching out to people in many different ways. Now as we are entering into summer season please pray for the plans we have for the summer and different activities we are going to do, to reach out to kids, youth, and families.
Thank you so much again for your prayers and support. Please keep our church in your prayers.
God bless you.
Zoti ju bekoft
In Him
Sincerely
