 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.  Eight young men are undergoing hands-on training on coaching and project organization. As part of this training these young men will take seven courses provided by Moldova Bible Seminary that are designed to help in discipleship, theology knowledge, and ways of leading others we well as defending their faith.

 Even there she proved herself a hard worker and was sent to school to learn how to fix elevators. She became an electric mechanic. Soon her husband died and due to stress she had a major stroke that left her speech impaired. For months she was in a hospital.
She tried to come back to Orthodox church, but soon became disillusioned and just stayed homebound. In 2008 though KBC deacon and elderly outreach she heard the Gospel and began to come to church. Her speak has been slowly returning to her and even though she cannot sing like she used to, Maria is a follower of Jesus who is a faithful prayer-warrior and serve as encouragement to the entire church.
Note: For the last three years KBC has been serving seventy to ninety elderly on regular basis. Our team is dedicated to sharing the good news of the Gospel as well as provide for physically, emotional and spiritual needs of widows, veteran and just elderly in need. Socialist system of the USSR promised them "bright future" but when the system failed elderly were left to fend for themselves. With meager means for survival many are destitute and fall prey of hunger, hopelessness or at times evil men looking to take away the little they have left. Over the following several months we would like to introduce some of them to you and share their stories. We pray that you would be encouraged to see the Lord's hands and feet at work and even might join in.
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.
Together with a team from Moldova, Jenya has been teaching children in four orphanages and also participated in an outreach to children in slums of Deli. This was a life-changing experience. Upon her return Jenya has shared that she is now considering a long-term commitment to the country of India and the children she fell in love with.
