AM thought...


Someone said so wisely 'The word of God is a great comfort to those in trial and a discomforting factor to those who are feeling no need of God.'

AM prayer...


EMPTY ME, Oh God!

Mother Teresa once said: 'Even God cannot fill a heart that is not empty.'


Blessed are they who have learned to empty themselves so that there is plenty of room to welcome Him!

our orphan outreach 2006-2007

at the same time...in Russia...


Avenir Kalinkin, one of our ICM Russia staff went to teach the Inductive Bible Study course. A couple of days ago he wrote us an email saying that he had had a terrific time working with Heart to Heart Church.



He spent 3 days on a seminar site teaching young cell group pastors and ministry leaders on how to teach through the Bible at their meetings. Seminar participants wrote a great thank you letter to ICM Russia saying that they were very excited and blessed by the teaching!


Dear friends and partners, thank you for sending your love-gift this month. Your kindness is very much appreciated!

on a mission in America...


Our next stop was Calvary Woodland... Pastor Dough and Julia, thank you so very much for the invitation and all the blessings...


Enjoyed praise and worship time a lot! You have lots of beautiful people in your congregation! May the Lord richly bless and multiply your ministry!


We are truly proud of what Jesus has done through you and Julia and all the gifted elders you have in the church within this short period of time! Keep up with good works!

on the road again... to the U-Turn for Christ Rehab

When we pray and believe, God answers our prayers... we asked for the willing feet and we have got them... now we are on the road again holding meetings in America... We opened this tour at the U-Turn for Christ Rehab here in California. Guys were fabulous there!!! It has always been a huge blessing for Olga and myself to come bless our precious brothers and sisters with the Word of God! Pastor Joe, Olga and I would like to thank you for the invite! We had so much fun serving the Lord together with you at Pollock Pines!

Special thanks to all of you who pray, support, and help us grow this ministry! We are blessed tremendously! You are special!
