MINTON NEWSLETTER - JANUARY 2010
Happy New Year from Ukraine!
Dear Pastor Burress and friends at Victory Baptist Church,
As the end of 2009 reminds us, nothing is permanent except what we do for our Lord Jesus. We wanted to share a few things that have been happening lately.
Three months ago our previous translator, who had been with us for over a year, moved to England to attend Bible college. We knew she was going and we prayed for a new one. She translated for Ron one Sunday night, stayed for a fellowship, then left for the airport. During the fellowship time we met another girl who spoke English. Ron asked her to email him if she was ever interested in doing some translating for him. Tanya is now our full-time translator and ministry partner. She has a real heart for ministry and we believe God sent her to us.
Our schedule has been quite busy for the last couple of months. Since September, we have had classes on Discipleship, Islam, Romans, Soteriology, Dispensations, Hermeneutics, and Genesis. Coming up early in 2010 are Bibliology, Biblical Counseling, and Apologetics.We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with American missionaries in Kiev, the capital of Ukraine, and were also able to do a little sightseeing and enjoy a few days of “down time.”Ron’s been able to preach numerous times recently on the Incarnation of Christ, the modern faith healing movement, and other areas. Pray that God will use the messages from His Word.
On a personal note, our two sons are doing well, and our grandsons are ten, six, and five.
Thankfully the Lord gives good health. Pray for the Ron and Nancy Minton team in Ukraine.
God’s blessings on you during 2010!
Ron and Nancy Minton
P. S. We really appreciate you folks at Victory Baptist in helping us win Ukrainians for Christ.
