BALVI
Every time you come here I feel I gain something more spiritually. I am very happy waiting for the return of Jesus. All here send their love to you all.
Bro. Kaspars

Sister Valentina is not feeling well and I too am not well. We endure our situation, my only hope is that life will work out better for my son. As the Bible says, we are pressured on every side, yet we have hope and will not give up. I continue my work for the truth each day.
Bro. Petris

GOBUSALA
Our situation here is very bad as we urgently need to pay our land tax and other things, otherwise we may lose our land on which we grow our food. We are so glad to know and remember in hard times that we have our brothers and sisters also struggling and believing in God.

JELGAVA
I truly believe that we can help each other with our prayers, not only because it is written so. So I keep praying about my relatives, about you, about myself, about... I really believe if we truly trust in God, that He will act right in the same moment we pray for our need. And I think He is with me, I have no doubts about it... But I have many unanswered questions: why this is happening to me, why should I suffer? But He knows better than I do.

LIEPA
I continue very sick, it is hard for me to get a consultation even with a doctor. I am trying to hold on in my self and in my faith.
Bro. Viktor

PILTENE
I feel I am going much deeper in my relationship with God. In the midst of all problems I thank God for things like that the sun is still shining. When I cannot sleep I have created a habit to thank God for all blessings. In this area I have no fellow Christadelphian, most religious people here are Catholics, Lutheran or Adventist. I think about Daniel who was also very alone, who prayed on his knees to his God.

REZEKNE
I very much missing not having many brothers and sisters here for fellowship. However I have two people who I believe are ready to be baptized here. The magazines are very wonderful and encouraging but I need people also! I see from the Bible that we have all been given many gifts which we are to use with people!

I am facing a lot of problems, including having things stolen, and also ill health. I am only looking forward to the next Bible School to meet with brothers and sisters.

VILANI
For the first time I will not be able to come to the next Bible school. I suddenly seem to have so many things going wrong with my health after this winter, it is as if my body has not gotten over the winter. I remain firm for the truth.
