Eric Fowler report #5 March 19th and 20th 2014

Eric Fowler, #5 March 19th and 20th. March 19th. We need to pray much for us, others and this Country as it is at a crisis point for sure. The day will be different as it is raining much today. We went and got a bag of food bag Marie and went there for dinner. We will send a picture and show what work she put into the meal. Had a very great visit. We would like to see her come to Lviv and be in fellowship there. She had great troubles with demons as there are people living in the unit with her that worship the devil. She had liver pie and many types of salads. Potato fish pie. After the great meal and a lovely time of fellowship, going over some scripture and a time of Prayer. Then we went to the bus station and picked up Nicoli? While we were waiting Rene and I gave out tracts and invitations. I was using Flora's story with her picture on it. Those who weren’t going to take one took one when I showed them her picture on the tract. We came back to the apartment and had tea with Nicoli and got ready for meeting. Yaroslav's, wife, Halia was out for second time, great for sure, along with three Men one for first time and one for 4th time. Pray that God will work with all three as we need good men to lead the group here. We have a good number of solid faithful ladies but no really faithful men at all. We had 31 in tonight and the joy of so many coming every night and some new each night. March 20 Thanks to all who are praying. We rejoice in the Great and Gracious God. The Day was to start normal but Svetlana’s mother knocked on the door early. It was so nice to see her. Svetlana is the Jewish girl who was our interpreter and Got saved over a year ago. She is now abroad working. Her mom and dad and sister aren't saved. We have to go there for dinner on Sat. Her hasn’t been paid as a nurse for months and her husband is a truck driver in the war zone part of Ukraine so can’t work now. There are so many like that in the country. The Crimea that Russia has taken is the richest part of the Country and will hurt the country very much. Rene Samson then left to go on the street to give out invitations. We were to do that too and Nicoli came and had bagged potatoes for us and some pickles. We sat and talked as he had questions and it was nice to talk. He hasn't missed a meeting and is very near the Door. After the talk he went with us to the market and got food for two poor families. Took one to the an old lady near hear we found out it was Nadia, a lady who we knew since coming in 2005 first time. She is saved but has had a rough time. Her husband died and then her father died, neither saved as far as we know. We had a great visit for sure. Then meet Sasha and Rene at the center of town and went to Valantina’s for a big meal. She has a son and is a good attendee of the meetings. We take her home every night as she has bad eyes and finds it hard to ride bus at night as she has to change a number of times to get home. She is very poor and left her some funds to help with lights, medicine etc, no pay for months. We came home rested and finished preparing for meeting. We had 30 in tonight, So nice to see and God is working and giving help in the speaking and a nice feeling to the meetings. We are looking to the Lord to bless in Salvation. The Country is calling in the young to train in the army and Volodia got a call again today. We have to Pray much for him. In the Ukraine but thankfully IN Christ Eric and Margie Fowler. With Rene Samson. PS After Sunday we will be alone as Rene will fly back to Canada.
