God is doing! There have been
a total of 17 baptized in Jesus
Name and 12 have been filled
with the gift of the Holy Ghost.
We are part of an awesome
team in Latvia and we have an
awesome group of Partners In
Missions supporting us both in
prayer and in finances. More
importantly, we serve an awe-
some God! To God be the Glory!
Miraculous Healing
While we were in the United
States a young couple was
brought to the house church in the
Kengarags Region of Riga. They
were in desperate need of a
miracle in their lives. This was an
unmarried couple who were
expecting the birth of their first
child in a couple of months. The
couple explained their devastating
situation. The young woman had
tested positive for HIV and there
was a fear that the child would
have it as well.
The House Church
group rallied around them and pray-
ed as the presence of the Holy
Ghost filled the apartment. Two
days later she went back to the
doctor for a second test. This time
the results showed that there was
NO SIGN of HIV in her system.
After that they were taught on the
plan of salvation, baptized in Jesus'
Name and the young man was filled
with the Holy Ghost. The week that
we arrived back in Riga, she gave
birth to a healthy baby boy, who
was in a hurry to come into this
world a little early. The couple was
married on November 20th by Bro.
Doug Elkins immediately following
our Sunday Hall Church. The young
woman and her baby were officially
discharged from the hospital and
came home this past Wednesday.
The young couple and their new-
born baby were in attendance at
Bible Study Group on Thursday.
God is a miracle working God!
New Bible Study Group
The young man in the above praise
report is so excited about God,
what He has done in his life and
what God is continuing to do that
he approached Mark Shutes about
starting a new Bible Study Group
and inviting all his friends. We met
with this Bible Study Group this
past Thursday and will continue on
a weekly basis; looking forward to
what God has in store for this
wonderful group of people.
Red Cross Opportunity
Since our return to Riga, God has
opened a door at the Red Cross
and has given the team the
opportunity to teach Life Lessons
and English classes every week.
Included in the Life Lessons Class
is Biblical study and we end each
session with prayer. Through this
we have seen lives impacted by
the power of God! We have had
an average of 16 in attendance the
last three weeks.
