BARANOVICHI
I would so like Jesus Christ to return to the earth right now. I have a very hard time with my health, although the medicines you got for me have been a great help. The doctors say there is nothing more they can do for me; there are so many victims of radiation here in our area and all are told the same. We look for herbal remedies. I recently went to meet with the Brothers in Minsk and we had a nice time. We are hoping to be able to go to the Bible School. I am studying Beyond Bible Basics and doing the questions there.

I am really excited because I am writing to a man in prison who never asks for money or anything, but I feel he has truly come to the truth after fanatically searching for it and studying our literature. I am so much encouraged. I am still in touch with Pavel, a very serious man who is in prison at Novosady. It is such a pleasure to write with him. I pray much for all your good work for the Lord.

When I was moved to another prison I lost all my books, and now I find the worst thing is, I don’t have a Bible Companion, so I feel I can’t read the chapters with you each day to have fellowship, so please send me another one.
Bro. Aleksandr

We are very happy to be able to call you ‘Brother’, this is a new experience. Our home very much needs repairing, and we fear the coming of winter. We are reading the Bible every day.

My brother and I are, as you know, invalids and housebound. We are reading the Bible much and hoping and praying for a better day in the Kingdom of God. We would like to be able to do more for our mother, especially as the house needs repair and we may even be thrown out of it. We have much time to pray but we would so like to be able to do more.

TERESHKI
Here the summer has been hot, but we have been blessed with good harvest which we are now preserving so we can eat through the winter. We recently held a small gathering of the Brothers in Minsk which was very good.

VYAZMICHI
We want you to know that we are really with you in our prayers and we always long for your visits. We continue preaching to people here, and recently I went to Minsk to meet with the Brothers who came there and learnt more about the Bible.
