Slavic Missionary Service is grateful for the partnership it maintains with supporters who make many ministries possible in the former Soviet Union. Our national workers appreciate each and every person that spiritually and financially gives to assist them in the furtherance of the Gospel. The staff of SMS works diligently to provide our missionaries with the necessary resources to reach their communities for Christ.
God has given each of the missionaries of SMS unique talents and gifts. Some are working in churches as pastors; some are working in hospitals or orphanages. Some are responsible for churches in large regions; others are responsible for teaching in Bible seminaries and colleges. Many try to reach the next generation with Bible studies, summer camps and evangelistic conferences.
Most of all, each of our missionaries has submitted to the call of God, and each one is testifying of God's great love through the power of the Holy Spirit. "Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven" (Matthew 5:16).
Let us continue to join hands together and strengthen the foundation of Faith that is being laid in the Slavic countries. "According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another is building upon it. But let each man be careful how he builds on it. For no man can lay a foundation other than the one which is laid, which is Jesus Christ" (1 Corinthians 3:10-11).
Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, "If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that."
