Day 3 we went to minister at an I T programming school with young 20 something professionals. Upon arrival our trip leader Andrew and I visited with the front desk man. Andrew offered him a Bible and their native language and the worker proceeded to tell Andrew he had already read the Bible and was not interested in the Bible he was trying to give him. After observing the man being very stoic, I felt compelled to pray for that man. I asked Andrew to see if he would allow me to pray for him. The man agreed and I stuck my hand out as if to shake the man’s hand and he held my hand while I prayed for him. As I prayed something happened because the man then chose to receive a copy of the Bible from Andrew and offered to take an extra to give away. And seem to warm up after that prayer time. Andrew said he could see a countenance change while I prayed.
In the classroom - We were able to partner up with 2 to 3 young professionals per team. I was able to share my faith with two young men. One young man by the name of Dema what especially interested and what I had to say. He asked really good questions like “explain the difference between Believe and Faith; explain what faith you practice orthodox or Catholic? And I explained about what a Protestant faith is like. Also, I shared with him in regards to faith about the story of Peter walking on water with Jesus until he looked down at his circumstances and then began to sink. I explained to the two young men their faith is also spelled R I S K. I shared about my daughter Hannah’s conversion and told of her encounter with Jesus; which was very radical. I was able to pray with both young men before they left; I also shared with them the APP by John Eldredge called Ransomed Heart and pointed out A PRAYER “How to pray to receive Christ” should they like to do that. I also gave them each a Bible to read in their own language.
After taking part with the IT young professionals we went to a WWII Museum explaining the atrocities that took place in Minsk. 2.37 million people were killed in Minsk during the war. About 800,000 taken into war camp.
