In 1999, Pastor Galina started a Bible study in the village about 300 miles south of Moscow. The little group met in people’s homes, moving every few weeks to a new location carrying their Bibles, hymnals and cross as they went. They dreamed of a permanent church home.

Through friends in the Rural Chaplains Association and with help from several churches in the Mississippi Conference, an ongoing effort has built the new church. Land was purchased and an old house fixed up for temporary use. Over six years, plans were drawn, legal requirements met, the foundation dug, concrete poured, solid brick walls laid, and the roof installed. Through generous gifts from a number of churches this spring, the windows and doors were installed and the first worship service in the building made possible.

Due to Pastor Galina’s leading a Bible study with men in a maximum-security prison nearby, the congregation is made up of released prisoners who have become members of the church, as well as elderly widows and children from the village. Revival UMC is a church where everyone is important and welcomed.

The challenge now is to finish the inside of the building. Having moved into their new home to worship, they don’t want to go back, even when winter comes, although the building does not presently have water or electricity and is unfinished on the inside. At this time it is estimated the immediate need is about $5,000 to securely fence the property, $3,000 to roof the area around the entrance room, and $1,000 to finish the stairs inside the building.

If you would like to help, please contact 228-860-4384, write 317 Washington Ave., Ocean Springs, MS 39564 or send your gift to Rural Chaplains Association Treasurer, 297 Rosemont Gardens, Lexington, KY 40503, marked to be used for Revival UMC. All gifts go through the General Board of Global Ministries Russia Initiative program.

Our belief is if we all do whatever we can do, God will bless it and we will finish Revival Church’s new home.

Come enjoy a delicious BBQ Chicken lunch on April 30th in the FUMC gym.  Sponsored by the United Methodist Men and benefitting the FUMC Troop 88 Scouts, your purchase will help a great cause! See members of the UMM or call the church office for tickets.

Relief needs in Japan and elsewhere related to the March 11 earthquake and tsunami will be the focus of the United Methodist Committee on Relief, which is in contact with partners in the region, said Melissa Crutchfield, UMCOR executive for international disaster response. The Rev. Cynthia Fierro Harvey, UMCOR’s top executive, urged prayers for those affected by the disaster. “Once again, in 
the wake of disaster and in the face of widespread need, we rely on the ever-expansive generosity of United Methodists and all people of goodwill to help us respond to those whose lives 
have suddenly been turned upside down,” she said. Emergency response staff members at Church World Service are in contact with the agency’s office in Bangkok, which is monitoring the situation in Japan and across the region. Tsunami warnings are in effect for North Sulawesi, Indonesia, and two local partners for CWS there have been contacted.
