GOOGLE TRANSLATE:

44 day 44 day prayer Marathon, today after the prayer, I told the people that everyone must decide for themselves and take responsibility to be at prayer or not.

Pro-Russian activists are in an aggressive mood and categorically, proponents of a united Ukraine is already beginning to irritate them. Taking the admin back, fear, panic, fear show their sympathy for Ukraine, impunity with which the separatists do riots, omissions or helping them power, led to a natural disturbance [indignation] of people.

But, violence always begets violence. Today in prayer near us on the man on the Mazda 3 or 6 (AN 0600ET or AN0060 ET) came to me and said that his son was captured "Right sector", and if they do not return him he will arrange, a massacre.

In the city in the hands of pro-Russian militants, about fifteen thousand firearms and it is possible that what may be a desperate father who lost his son in every person with Ukrainian symbols will see his killer .

Tomorrow is declared Ukrainian activists rally "With prayer for Ukraine." Almost all believe that can be managed without blood. Violence begets violence, then revenge killings generate other murders.

But in Donetsk I meet more and more guys who are ready to die rather than live under the rule of those who deliberately undermine the Donbass, and our goal as a church to show the city 's most powerful weapon that God gave us - prayer.

In Donetsk, only 18% of people want to [separate with] Russia, but they are aggressive and organized, keep at bay the entire city and create a picture as if the whole Donbass rebelled against the "Kiev Junta" and crave the protection of Russia.

We pray peacefully under the flag of Ukraine, as it does not agree with this lawlessness as we feel responsibility before God and men, because they do not want to be cowards and traitors, since love our country and Christ, who gave it to us.

We love people who threaten us, love and pray for them. We're not mad, but I clearly know that if the Church is silent with time it is bent once, then will bend down twice. If the church is silent knowing what spirit is behind separatism, then she will not speak when evil will come in another mask.

It is possible to express disagreement internally muttering in front of the TV, but in the Bible I read about other people, brave and courageous, who talked about sin even while being in the minority, and even to persons not interested or willing to listen. Inaction of the church in this case, is to promote and give assistance with everything that is happening.

Thank you brave people who come to pray and to all who sacrifice for the prayer tent. God protects us, but more often comes to mind that would not be bad to have a few vests on duty in the tent. Pray about Donbass pray for Ukraine."

Yes Thank you. Joy can still be found.
Locals know the Russian ‘green men’ need to be approached to let them understand & keep perspective of Ukrainian family.

Just FYI those ‘green men’ are Ukrainian tank troops who decided not to fight against their own people.

Your prayers are working...keep it up.
