Return from Russia

I wish I could tell you about all the things Arthur and Betty Gasch accomplished during their recent trip to minister in Moscow. The issue of privacy and keeping a low profile makes actual reports a bit dangerous to include to the public. The Russian government definitely runs blog checks to see who is sending money and giving support to non-profits there.

Betty Gasch wrote a great book, Heart to Heart-A Journey to Wholeness several years ago to courageously chronicle her healing from sexual abuse. That book is now translated into Russian and offered to women in recovery. You can get the book from me for $15.00 + mailing by sending an e-mail. All the proceeds go to support the Russian Ministry.

To speak so openly and helpfully about recovery is almost unheard of in Russia. Abuse is common and women are often treated very badly. Betty's book offers real hope and healing for anyone willing to openly ask and then seek the Lord.

Thank God for people such as Arthur and Betty who sacrificed time, energy and money to take the good news about healing to a nation devastated by evil men.
