Brev från Anatoly 2013-10-09
Potato is the second bread. We have such a proverb in Russia. The history of Russia especially of the past century is filled with a lot of episodes when many Russian people had no any bread on their tables. So the potato was the single food for surviving people in our cold winters.
We are grateful to the Lord that our Transition Home is 10 years old already and we will celebrate this date on October 12. We are grateful to the Lord that this ministry is very actual today. In this September 5 new boys graduates from the orphanages have come to live in our Transition Home. Now we experience many problems in the life of our Transition Home. Praise God that the Lord helps in their solving. One kind person allowed for our Transition Home to collect the potato on his field for this winter. Our transition kids were allowed to miss one day in their trade schools to accomplish this potato project. In spite of very nasty weather (rain with snow) with very strong wind and very primitive machine process we with our prayers, some jokes and smiles and with some delicious lunch could collect 1500 kg potato. We are grateful to the Lord for this.
With prayers,
Anatoly.
