Working Hard

In Ukraine we have an amazing new director - Michael Lovzovoi. It is a blessing to see how Michael and his family are working hard for EGM. This is Michael’s daughter, Anya helping in the office that we’re praising the Lord for providing. Remember to pray for Michael, his wife, Tanya and Anya as Michael leads our newest work in Ukraine. We are asking God for great results as Michael and the newly formed team in Ukraine begin to train children's workers to help transform children's lives

Egyptian Opportunities

Egypt boasts some of the most amazing historical sites on earth. People flock to the Pyramids, seeking to learn about the rich history of the Pharaoh's. Yet millions of children in Egypt are still waiting to hear about the love of Jesus Christ.

David Overstreet is currently traveling in this amazing country, serving with EGM. As he speaks at trainings for children’s workers and at children's camp he made the following observation:
John writes in his third letter verse four, "I have no greater joy than this, to hear of my children walking in the truth."
While it is fun watching the children playing in the streets, seemingly not caring about the dirt, rubble and sand, it is sad knowing that most of them don't know that God loves them. I am grateful that the Egyptian EGM staff and many children's workers here do care and are commited to seeing the children in Egypt be transformed. This is their greatest joy, seeing this next generation know the truth and know Jesus.

Training, training, and more training!

As EGM has expanded into other countries, we have often heard "when are you going to offer training for those of us here in the US??? Well, the answer is... NOW!

We are excited about two upcoming trainings. Both of these trainings will be on the Model Children's Worker found in Dueteronomy 6:1-9.
The first will be held over eight weeks in El Tora, CA. This training will be entirely held in spanish. God has provided the translation of materials from English to Spanish, for nearly nothing! Praise the Lord for amazing volunteers.
The second training will be held in the Temecula area on June 23rd and 24th from 8:30-1:00. There is still room in this training, e-mail us at mkirscher@egmworld.org for more information!

Healing in Chile!

We praise the Lord that Pastor Daniel Lagos, our national director in Chile has experienced a miraculous healing! Read on to hear Krysten Norkaitis’ personal account of her visit with Pastor Lagos.
The doctors and specialists are stunned. When I was in Chile in April, I met with Daniel. He was in a very precarious state because for the past 4 months he had lost the ability to hear in both ears; he had become completely deaf. He was also experiencing vision problems and was unable to hear unless he could see you, was in a relatively quiet room and had his complex hearing aid in place. Daniel was regularly going to an audio specialist where he was learning how to hear all over again. He said our voices did not sound like they had before. He was also having problems with his equilibrium and showed me a huge bruise on his leg that he had acquired from one of his many falls. On May 14th, I had a video Skype call where I saw and spoke to Daniel. He could hear me perfectly and he turned his head to show me that he was NOT wearing any of his hearing aids! He told me one morning he got up and began to read the Bible. He was reading in Jeremiah and was specifically impacted by verse 17 in chapter 32 that states, "Ah, Sovereign LORD, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you.” Daniel then prayed acknowledging that God is all powerful and asking him to restore his hearing. While he was praying, he heard his own prayer. From that moment forth, he has been able to hear without any problems! He now carries his Bible around and when people do not know how to respond to his improved condition, he opens it and reads to them from Jeremiah and explains that God is ALL Powerful and the Great Physician!!
