Anatoly G., serves in Moldova with Kishinev Bible Church as minister in prisons.  He visits four prisons weekly as a chaplain leading Bible studies as well as work with individuals released from incarceration helping them adjust to life of freedom. 

For the last several years Anatoly has traveled to Russia to work in various rehabilitation centers for former inmates who also struggle with addictions. During this time the men work on the fields and spend time studying God's word as well as undergo individual and group counseling.  
During forty days this summer Anatoly has spent in southern Russia in Krasnodar Kray working in the rehabilitation center with a group of ten men.  Anatoly lived among them, worked among them and led them through the study of the book of John.  In addition Anatoly provided counseling and guidance in effort to help these men get rid of their alcoholic addictions well as to get integrated into the local church and everyday life.

The class was a blessing for me as I observed the excitement and growing comprehension by all the students of this understanding of the spiritual life - what it means to turn our focus upon Jesus and His life through us rather than a focus on ourselves and our “doing” for Jesus. 

My prayer is that the seeds that were planted in this class will grow and mature as the students continue to seek more knowledge about and application of The Abiding Life. ​

The students of Moldova Bible Seminary are involved in regular ministry throughout the year.  As part of their education they also travel on international mission trips during the summer and winter breaks.  This summer the geography of the outreach of MBS has expanded to include India.  ​
