--- This is his last letter to us:
Yes, He is risen indeed!
Joyous Easter Greetings!
We join our brothers and sisters in Christ in the former Soviet Union, saying "Christos Voskress: —Christ is Risen, Yes, He is risen indeed!
Thank you for your gift toward the ministries of Slavic Missionary Service. The funds you sent will be used as designated by you. We are so grateful to you and the Lord for your response and help. Already, we are planning our summer camp programs both at home and aboard. This is a far reaching ministry through which we are able to reach out to orphans, children that come from broken homes, and through the children, reach out to their parents as well with the life giving message of God's love.
This is also the time that we are making plans for our outreach with English as a second language in Belarus! Two trips are planned. Minsk, June 13 – 23, and Gomel, June 27 – July 12. If you or a group from your church are interested in learning more about this opportunity, contact Leon Chechowich as soon as possible at HYPERLINK "mailto:lc_sms@msn.com"lc_sms@msn.com. Last year over 700 students heard the gospel through this outreach!
Thank you again for caring and sharing. We are so grateful to the Lord for friends like you who make this ministry possible.
In His Love,
Alex Leonovich,
Executive Director
