GREETINGS & HOPE YOU ARE WELL<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

We are all doing life somewhat differently than we expected. It has become a day of closed churches and on-line outreaches, Zoom meetings, WhatsApp, Skype, and other internet based social media. Our prayer in all this would be that you and your family stay well and, as we go through this, we will see many people awakened to their need of a Savior.<\/p>\n

In the last 2 months, several of our countries have fallen into a desperate situation and we have developed an Emergency Coronavirus Fund for feeding. Our area of Eurasia and the Middle East includes Ukraine, Romania, Israel, and Palestinian Territories.<\/p>\n

UKRAINE:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Ukraine has been hard hit with a shutdown of the economy and no government help. This is a country with no on-line bank system so with churches closed, there is no income. We have 120 drug rehab residents and staff and on a normal day, the whole Drug Rehab program is self sustaining. With a loss of all their jobs, WMM and several of you have helped us send emergency funds to keep them fed. In addition, we are feeding a growing homeless population not far from the mother church 3 days a week.<\/p>\n

\"Krushinka,<\/a>

ROMANIA:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

As a former Communist country, Romania knows what it's like to go through hard times. The general population is just making it so far, but our Gypsy Churches have a very high unemployment rate and we've sent food funds their way. We also we have 2 elderly centers, with close to 100 persons, and we've been able to send relief to them as well.<\/p>\n

\"Peniel<\/a>

ISRAEL:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Once Israel shut down, it was pretty tight. We have about 140 drug rehab patients and staff, and they are in the same boat as their Ukrainian friends. They were self-sufficient until the businesses closed, and then they needed help for the next few months. They have also been looking after about 300 Holocaust Survivors with food hampers. This has made a big difference we have seen over 30 persons accept Yeshua (Jesus) as their Messiah. There is an open door of opportunity right now in Israel.<\/p>\n

BETHLEHEM, PALESTINIAN TERRITORIES:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Even though we have a small work there, Pastor Khader has made a big impact as he and the Church have taken on the task to reach their Muslim neighbors all around the Church with food hampers. The police gave them permissions to do this, and the Mayor found out and endorsed them as well and added more names to their list. They now have up to 250 families. What an example of the Church being \"the Church\".<\/p>\n

\"Khader<\/a>

NEXT GENERATION:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

I am so excited to see the people I mostly work with on the field are the under 45 group. They are taking the message and the assignment and are running with it. They are full of enthusiasm and are tuned into the Spirit to do what the Lord is calling them to do.<\/p>\n

CAN YOU HELP?<\/span><\/strong> Hopefully the end of emergency help needed is not too far away. I know we will still need help through May and probably June. You can give to the IPHC COVID-19 fund at give.iphc.org\/project\/covid19-international-relief-fund, or please contact me for alternate directions at bcave@iphc.org or 210-929-9793.<\/p>\n

THANK YOU<\/span><\/strong> to all our prayer and financial partners. We honestly couldn't do this without your involvement. It really means a lot to us. There is so much that the Lord is doing and so much we'd still like to see happen. We pray for a major awakening to the Lord at this critical time in Eurasia & the Middle East. You are part of this as you pray that God will bring revival across the Region.<\/p>\n

Lots of Love,<\/span><\/p>\n

ACTUALIZACI\u00d3N DE OTO\u00d1O <\/h2>

\u00a1Saludos a todos ustedes! Algunos de ustedes son nuevos en nuestro viaje, mientras que otros nos han seguido desde el comienzo de nuestros 34 a\u00f1os como misioneros. Te traemos los mejores saludos de temporada y esperamos que haya sido un buen a\u00f1o. Estamos descubriendo que estamos en una temporada de "cosecha" en varios de nuestros pa\u00edses de Europa del Este y Medio Oriente y le brindaremos algunos puntos destacados de eso. \u00a1Se est\u00e1n plantando iglesias todos los meses, y la gente viene a Cristo! <\/p>

En septiembre y octubre, estuvimos en Inglaterra, donde autorizamos y ordenamos a nueve ministros m\u00e1s. Luego nos dirigimos a Bulgaria para nuestra reuni\u00f3n familiar misionera y escuchamos informes de los puntos cr\u00edticos de la cosecha en todo el mundo. <\/p>

UCRANIA <\/h2>

Yo (Bob) estaba con nuestros l\u00edderes en Ucrania cuando realizamos una conferencia de pastores sobre la movilizaci\u00f3n del discipulado. Mientras que en Ucrania, tambi\u00e9n verificamos el progreso de varios proyectos que tenemos en marcha. Un proyecto incluye nuestra nueva panader\u00eda en operaci\u00f3n. Esta es una panader\u00eda operativa y capacitaci\u00f3n para nuestros hombres y mujeres que se encuentran en el centro de rehabilitaci\u00f3n de drogas en el complejo principal. <\/p>

\"Bob<\/a> <\/p>

KRUSHINKA VILLAGE <\/h2>

No muy lejos de la ciudad de Kiev, nuestro gran proyecto de rehabilitaci\u00f3n de drogas est\u00e1 avanzando. El Fourplex estaba a medio terminar y, al principio, lo alquilamos. Ahora hemos podido comprar el edificio y la propiedad y estamos terminando las otras dos unidades. Este edificio alberga actualmente a 30 drogadictos en recuperaci\u00f3n. Alabado sea el Se\u00f1or; est\u00e1n realmente en camino a una nueva vida en Cristo. Una de esas personas est\u00e1 prosperando en su segundo a\u00f1o bajo el Pastor Max. <\/p>

\"Bob<\/a> <\/p>

OBJETIVO DE PLANTACI\u00d3N DE IGLESIAS PARA 2020 <\/h2>

El objetivo de plantar iglesias para 2020 en Ucrania es plantar 10 nuevas iglesias. Ya tenemos un compromiso. <\/p>

ISRAEL <\/h2>

Fue de Ucrania directamente a Israel. \u00a1Qu\u00e9 lugar de "pasar"! Estuve con nuestros l\u00edderes all\u00ed, la mayor\u00eda de los cuales son ex drogadictos. Bautizamos a estos nuevos creyentes jud\u00edos en el r\u00edo Jord\u00e1n mientras yo estaba all\u00ed.
Camin\u00e9 por las calles de "skid row" de Tel Aviv, donde se encuentra la cafeter\u00eda \/ centro de alimentaci\u00f3n. Vi a los hombres "antes" y "despu\u00e9s" en nuestra \u00faltima iglesia en casa \/ centro de rehabilitaci\u00f3n. Ahora hay 32 ubicaciones, muchas de ellas, que se duplican como casas de rehabilitaci\u00f3n y una como iglesia. Estos hombres y mujeres ahora son redimidos y apasionados por el Se\u00f1or. El "antes" es una escena triste, mientras que el "despu\u00e9s" incluye a personas como un hombre llamado Michael (imagen del extremo izquierdo), que era un adicto de 20 a\u00f1os, pero ahora un l\u00edder din\u00e1mico. <\/p>

\"Las<\/a> <\/p>

HAIFA <\/h2>

Ahora tenemos una nueva ubicaci\u00f3n para la iglesia de Haifa. Las iglesias en casas de esta ciudad ahora pueden pasar de sus edificios abarrotados que albergan solo a 140-150 personas, a un edificio que iba a ser un club de striptease de alta gama que la ciudad cerr\u00f3 antes de que pudiera abrir. Este edificio tendr\u00e1 capacidad para 450-500. Consideramos que esto es una victoria para la Iglesia, ya que el edificio ten\u00eda cerca de $ 100,000 en equipos de iluminaci\u00f3n y sonido computarizados que quedaron atr\u00e1s. <\/p>

\"Nuevas<\/a> <\/p>

BEL\u00c9N <\/h2>

Nuestra iglesia en Bel\u00e9n necesita un nuevo edificio, pero es m\u00e1s f\u00e1cil decirlo que hacerlo, ya que este es principalmente territorio musulm\u00e1n que no se alquilar\u00e1 a una iglesia evang\u00e9lica. \u00danase a nosotros para rezar para que puedan comprar sus propias instalaciones, lo cual es muy costoso en esa ciudad. <\/p>

AGRADECIDO <\/h2>

\u00bfC\u00f3mo podemos decir un agradecimiento adecuado para todos ustedes que han participado con nosotros en misiones este a\u00f1o, y algunos de ustedes durante 33 a\u00f1os? Personalmente, queremos que sepa que nos sentimos honrados de ser sus piernas, manos y ojos para lograr lo que el Se\u00f1or ha puesto en nuestros corazones. Nuestros ciudadanos pudieron plantar muchas iglesias nuevas en Ucrania, Bielorrusia, Moldavia e Israel porque ustedes dieron. Ahora se han plantado m\u00e1s de 65 nuevas iglesias en los \u00faltimos tres a\u00f1os. 2020 se est\u00e1 alineando para ser otro a\u00f1o excepcional, y estamos muy contentos de que seas parte de todo esto. <\/p>

Que el Se\u00f1or los bendiga ricamente en esta temporada navide\u00f1a. Es una ALEGR\u00cdA servirle. <\/p>
