A Letter From The Weresch's ...

Paul and Betty Weresch have been ministering in Europe since September 23rd. They have visited churches in Norway, then on to Russia and now are in Poland. Let me share their recent letter with you.


Greetings from two European travelers …


We had a very interesting time in Sochi and Adler Russia. The services were great. There was a very good spirit in all the services.

A highlight one evening was an 84 year old war veteran who received Christ as his Saviour We just wish you could have been with us to experience the wonderful time of worship and the way the people responded to the messages. The people were very excited to have us come to minister to them.

One Saturday (our free day) the pastor and his wife took us for a tour into the mountains. First we visited a tea plantation. It is the first one in Russia. We were shown around and then had tea and light lunch at the tea house. From there a 4 wheel vehicle picked us up and took us to a rehab center which is also a summer camp for children. The camp is being built in very rugged terrain but has good potential, however right now it is still very primitive. There is no running water or utilities of any kind.

While there we had a meeting with the rehab people. Their testimonies were most interesting. The leader of the group is a former drug addict that has been free for 5 years. He has taken Bible school by correspondence. What beautiful young lives that now have been free and redeemed by Jesus.

On Sunday we had a wonderful service in Sochi. They church was packed. Then we were taken out to a Georgian restaurant. It was a beautiful place. We dined in the loft of the building. The food was served with flair. Wish you could have been with us for it was very interesting.

After a very long traveling day on Monday we arrived in Poland at 4:00 AM Tuesday. We had flown to Berlin and there were picked up by the pastor's son at 11:30 P.M. Then we had a 4 hour drive to Dzierzoniow, Poland. After a few hours of sleep we are fine.

The weather here is the opposite from Sochi. It is cold, windy and
raining. Some parts of Poland had an early snow. On this trip we have learned to just take it as it comes. In November we will be returning to Canada.

God bless you
Betty and Paul Weresch

Continue to pray for Paul and Betty as they continue their mnistry in Poland.
