I got the news that Pastor Peter had died just as we were starting our Missions roundtable. We had to leave the roundtable a little early to make it back to Odessa in time for the funeral. Around 700 people gathered in our church yard for the funeral service. Thankfully, God gave us beautiful sunny Fall weather.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\">The testimony of Peter&#8217;s life rang loud and clear, he was a man who loved God and his family, as a result God used him to impact many people and churches throughout Ukraine and beyond.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\">Just over a week before Peter died he preached a short sermon on thanksgiving in our church.\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/tsmsOXzpO6I\" target=\"_blank\">Would you please take 5 mins to watch his sermon?<\/a>\u00a0It is such a great reminder that no matter our circumstances we are called to have and attitude of thanksgiving.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\">Praise the Lord that Peter&#8217;s life and testimony<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\">Pray for comfort for the Rodoslavov family<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\">Pray for our church as we deal with the loss<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: large;\"><strong>Missions Roundtable<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<hr size=\"1\" \/>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\">Around 50 participants from over 14 countries: Ukraine, Russia, Slovakia, Poland, Albania, Israel, Croatia, Bosnia, &#8212;&#8211;stan, Hungary, USA, Canada, Moldova and Romania gathered for our missions roundtable.

The next step will be putting some of this to practice and for this we need your prayers.
