Village Gospel Harvest is about preaching the Gospel in the most remote areas of Russia!

Svetlana and Ruslan are called to minister God's love to the lowest and the least in the villages around and especially children in Krasnoborsk area!

Svetlana herself grew up in a very difunctional home where alcoholic father was beating his wife and children Jesus set Sveta free and process of healing started . She met her future husband at our pastoral conference and today they have two beautiful children.

These Christmas and New Year holidays we brought them to Lukhovitsy to my church to minister to them and to hear from them. Svetlana and Ruslan, their two children and Artyom and Angela from Gavrilovka where there is no electricity for the last 15 years. Which means during whole Angela's life! Artyom is 17 and Angela is 14.

Small church in Krasnoborsk led by Pastor Svetlana and her husband Ruslan is strategic for the village evangelism. The area is one of the poorest and darkest when it comes to alkoholism and abuse toward children in the families. But God choses ordinary people to bring forth the light of the Gospel to set people free and heal souls with His love! I myself visited Krasnoborsk many times and I tell you - even I was astonished by the conditions where people live.

Artyom and Angela all their childhood grew up in inhuman conditions. Both of their parent are alkoholics and their house was on fire years ago and since that time nothing was remodelled or redone with their home. All these precious children saw was half destroyed walls, almost no furniture . I can not image how they felt about themselves living like that! One day! Pastor Sevtlana organised believers to buy wallpaper and put it in two rooms.

One day Pastor Sveta and her husband were driving the van (we got for them) through the village of Gavrilovka and saw on the side of the road i in the snow two half-naked children with bruises on their bodies. They picked them up and took in the van and asked them where they live and when they brought them to their parents' home - they realised that every time parents got drunk - they would beat their children and threw them out of house. Since that time Svetlana would take children to her home to stay with them for some time.

The only pictures we have of Artyom and Angela are the ones that were taken while they were visiting our church here. Pastor Sveta said they wouldn't let her take their pictures - they could not even smile or look at camera!

A lot of fun time with our youth. Artyom is wonderful guitar player! And look at Angela's smile!!!
