Ruth at school now!








This year our daughter Ruth went to school. Here are some photos of her first day at school. At Opening Ceremony.


Again to the kindergarеn!

Hello,

On 4th of August Sarah and Ruth again returned to kindergarten after several months brake. Ruth was very happy to meet new friends. Sarah was crying in the mornings a few days when we left her in the class. But now she got used to a new style of life.

Lena also returned to work to this kindergarten. She is helper of a teacher.

So, every morning all my 3 girls go together to the kindergarten.
Hello our dear friends,

Last Friday (16-05-2008) we safely came back to Mariupol again after holiday that we spent in Rovno city with the whole family. We arrived to Rovno on April, 26, 2008. It took 17 hours from Mariupol to Kiev by train and 4 hours by small bus from Kiev to Rovno. Our trip was safe. Praise the Lord.
We stayed at my mom’s apartment. Next day on Sunday morning at 6am we visited Easter service at the church “Golgotha”. During our visit we visited this church twice. We also had a chance to visit church “Dobry pastor”.

We are thankful to God that we had a chance to visit many of our friends. Of course it’s a pity that we did not visit all of them. Please forgive us. We tried to do our best. Hope next time to see you.
We want to thank you for kindness and hospitality you showed to our family during our visit.
Thank you for all your presents. May God reward you hundred times more.

This trip was good for all our family. We gained from it:
1. Good rest
2. Emotional satisfaction
3. Spiritual support

Now we are ready to continue our life on this earth with new strength, energy and ideas.
We trust our Lord that he will guide us and show us clear direction.

Please, if you can support us in your prayers about that. It’s very important for us now to know what God wants from our family in the nearest future.

Thank you.

Be in touch,

Love in Christ,

Sergey, Lena, Ruth and Sarah

Зимово-весняні новини.

Привіт!
Вітаємо всіх з приходом ВЕСНИ! Час пробуджуватися! Розпочинати нові старти!
Ось останні наші новини:
В понеділок (25-02-2008) Оленка повела в Рут в лікарню для того, щоб взяти довідку в садок. Просто Рут з нового року сиділа вдома, то свято було, то потім вона трохи хворіла. А тепер нарешті зібралися. Під час загального огляду нам нагадали, що їй повинні зробити прививку від кору та краснухи. Зробили. На наступний день Рут пішла в садок. Вона була така щаслива, вона вже заскучала за своїми друзями. На наступний день, в середу зранку, почала жалітися на біль в горлі. Ми подумали, що нічого серйозного і Рут знову пішла в садок. Ввечері того ж дня в неї піднялася температура. Звернулися до лікаря. Він сказав, що в неї скарлатина і сказав сидіти вдома дня 22. Це інфекційна хвороба. Це, можна сказати, ускладнена форма ангіни. Більше про цю хворобу ви можете почитати тут:
Лікар приписав нам такі ліки:
Анаферон дитячий
Полоскати горло (водою з сіллю та водою з лимоном)
Прискати горло спреєм «Інгаліпт»
Спрей для носа.
Антибіотик «Аугментин», але ми відмовилися від нього, тому що він на основі пеніциліну, а в Оленки велика алергія на нього і в Рут вона також може бути присутня., тому ми замінили на «Макротусін».
Ось так Рут живе вже 4-й день ізольовано в своїй дитячій кімнаті, там вона і харчується. Я їй поставив там телевізор та ДВД. Перші 2 дні їй навіть дуже подобалось таке життя. А зараз я бачу, що їй починає набридати.
Цієї неділі (2-02-2008) я в церкву ходив сам. Оленка залишилася з дітьми вдома. Погода була сьогодні дуже неприємна: дощ, вітер та температура +5. В нас в церкві було Причастя. Молилися за країну Бангладеш. У нас на кожному служінні є час на молитву за світ. Кожного разу- якась нова країна. В кінці служіння прийняв Христа один молодий хлопець. Слава Богу.
Після служіння я одразу ж поїхав додому, по дорозі забіг в магазин, купити щось смачненького своїм дівчатам. Вдома трохи погрався зі своїми дочками. А тепер знайшов хвилинку написати дещо про нас.
Не знаю, що принесе для нашої сім’ї цесь місяць та тиждень. Головне хочеться, щоб Бог дав нам всім здоров’я. Якщо знайдете час – згадайте нашу сім’ю в своїх молитвах.
Ми також бажаємо вам всім плідного та блогословенного тижня!
З любов’ю,
Сергій та Оленка

God's cake!



Sometimes we wonder, "What did I do to deserve this?" or "Why did God have to do this to me?"
Here is a wonderful explanation!
A daughter is telling her Mother how everything is going wrong, she's failing algebra, her boyfriend broke up with her and her best friend is moving away.
Meanwhile, her Mother is baking a cake and asks her daughter if she would like a snack, and the daughter says, "Absolutely Mom, I love your cake" "Here, have some cooking oil," her Mother offers. "Yuck", says her daughter. "How about a couple raw eggs?" "Gross, Mom!" "Would you like some flour then? Or maybe baking soda?" "Mom, those are all yucky!"
To which the mother replies: "Yes, all those things seem bad all by themselves. But when they are put together in the right way, they make a wonderfully delicious cake!
God works the same way. Many times we wonder why He would let us go through such bad and difficult times. But God knows that when He puts these things all in His order, they always work for good! We just have to trust Him and, eventually, they will all make something wonderful! God is crazy about you. He sends you flowers every spring and a sunrise every morning. Whenever you want to talk, He'll listen. He can live anywhere in the universe, and He chose your heart.

Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here we might as well dance.

What a great God I believe!

He is the First and Last, the Beginning and the End

He is the keeper of Creation and the Creator of all!!

He is the Architect of the universe and

The Manager of all times.

He always was, He always is, and He always will be...

Unmoved, Unchanged, Undefeated and never Undone!

He was bruised and brought healing!!!

He was pierced and eased pain!

He was persecuted and brought freedom

He was dead and brought life!

He is risen and brings power!

He was persecuted and brought freedom

He was dead and brought life!

He is risen and brought power!
He reigns and brings Peace!

The world can't understand him,

The armies can't defeat Him,

The schools can't explain Him,

The leaders can't ignore Him,

Herod couldn't kill Him,

The Pharisees couldn't confuse Him,
The people couldn't hold Him!

Nero couldn't crush Him,

Hitler couldn't silence Him,

The New Age can't replace Him,
Donahue can't explain Him away!

He is Light, Love, Longevity, and Lord.

He is goodness, Kindness, Gentleness, and God.

He is Holy, Righteous, mighty, powerful and pure.

His ways are right,

His Word is eternal,

His will is unchanging and

His mind is on me.

He is my Redeemer,

He is my Savior,

He is my guide, and

He is my peace.

He is my Joy,

He is my comfort,

He is my Lord, and

He rules my life!

I serve Him because His bond is love,

His burden is light, and

His goal for me is abundant life.

I follow Him because He is the wisdom of the wise,

The power of the powerful,

The ancient of days, the ruler of rulers,

The leader of leaders, the overseer of the overcomers,and

The Sovereign Lord of all that was and is and is to come.

And if that seems impressive to you, try this one for size.

His goal is a relationship with ME!

He will never leave me.

Never forsake me,

Never mislead me,

Never forget me,
Never overlook me, and

Never cancel my appointment in His appointment book!

When I fall, He lifts me up!

When I fail, He forgives!

When I am weak, He is strong!

When I am lost, He is the way!

When I am afraid, He is my courage!

When I stumble, He steadies me!

When I am hurt, He heals me!

When I am broken, He mends me!

hen I am blind, He leads me!

When I am hungry, He feeds me!

When I face trials, He is with me!

When I face persecution, He shields me!

When I face problems, He comforts me!

When I face loss, He provides for me!

When I face death, He carries me Home!

He is everything for everybody, everywhere,

Every time and every way.

He is God, He is faithful.

I am His and He is mine!

My Father in heaven can whip the father of this world!

So, if you're wondering why I feel so secure, understand this...

He said it and that settles it!

God is in control, I am on His side and

that means all is well with my soul!

Everyday is a blessing for GOD IS !!!

God is not mocked.... (Бог поругаем не бывает...)

Galatians 6:7
This was sent to me and it is very interesting read the whole thing.
Make a personal reflection about this.....

Very interesting, read until the end.....It is written in the Bible (Galatians 6:7):

'Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

Here are some men and women who mocked God :

John Lennon (Singer):
Some years before, during his interview with an American Magazine, he said: 'Christianity will end, it will disappear. I do not have to argue about that. I am certain. Jesus was ok, but his subjects were too simple, today we are more famous than Him' (1966).
Lennon, after saying that the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ, was shot six times.

Tancredo Neves (President of Brazil ):
During the Presidential campaign, he said if he got 500,000 votes from his party, not even God would remove him from Presidency.
Sure he got the votes, but he got sick a day before being made President, then he died .

Cazuza (Bi-sexual Brazilian co mposer, singer and poet):
During A show in Canecio ( Rio de Janeiro ), while smoking his cigarette, he puffed out some smoke into the air and said: 'God, that's for you.'

He died at the age of 32 of AIDS in a horrible manner.

The man who built the Titanic:
After the construction of Titanic, a reporter asked him how safe the Titanic would be. With an ironic tone he said: 'Not even God can sink it'

The result: I think you all know what happened to the Titanic ..

Marilyn Monroe (Actress):
She was visited by Billy Graham during a presentation of a show. He said the Spirit of God had sent him to preach to her. After hearing what the Preacher had to say, she said: 'I don't need your Jesus'.

A week later, she was found dead in her apartment.

Bon Scott (Singer)
The ex-vocalist of the AC/DC. On one of his 1979 songs he sang: 'Don't stop me, I'm going down all the way, down the highway to hell'.

On the 19th of February1980, Bon Scott was found dead, he had been choked by his own vomit.

Campinas (IN 2005):

In Campinas, Brazil a group of friends, drunk, went to pick up a friend.....The mother accompanied her to the car and was so worried about the drunkenness of her friends and she said to the daughter holding her hand, who was already seated in the car:

'My Daughter, go with God And may He protect You..' She responded: 'Only If He (God) travels in the trunk, cause inside here.....it's already full '.

Hours later, news came by that they had been involved in a fatal accident, everyone had died,
the car could not be recognized what type of car it had been, but surprisingly, the trunk was intact.
The police said there was no way the trunk could have remained intact. To their surprise, inside the trunk was a crate of eggs, none was broken.

Christine Hewitt:
Jamaican journalist and entertainer said the Bible (Word of God) was the worst book ever written.
In June 2006 she was found burnt beyond recognition in her motor vehicle .

Many more important people have forgotten that there is no other name that was given so much authority as the name of Jesus. Many have died, but only Jesus died and rose again, and he is still alive

'Jesus'
I have done my part, Jesus said: 'If you are embarrassed about me, I will also be embarrassed about you before My Father.'

You are my 8 in 8 seconds. I am not breaking this. No way!

I'M TOLD THIS WORKS!!!!! Bishop T. D. Jakes '8 Second Prayer.' Just repeat this prayer and see how God moves!!

'Lord, I love you and I need you, come into my heart, and bless me, my family, my home, and my friends, in J esus' name. Amen.'

Першний раз на санках в 2008!

Привіт,
Перший раз за всю зиму 19 лютого випав більш-менш нормальній сніг. Я після роботи прийшов, витяг санчата і ми пішли з дочками гратися у нас в дворі. Вони були такі щасливі побавитися сніжком. Особливо Сарі сподобався сніжок.




















День Святого Валентина!

Привіт,

Сьогодні в День всіх закоханих, ми з дружиною вирішили піти в театр. Це був перший, коли ми пішли в театр з дня нашого переїзду в Маріуполь в 2005 році. Оленкіна мама погодилася посидіти з нашими дітьми, а ми як закохані призначили побачення біля театру. Я під’їхав туди з роботи, а Оленка сама приїхала з дому. Цікаво було знову провести романтичний вечір з дружиною удвох. Ми не так часто маємо такі часи.

В цей день йшла комедія «Міщанин у дворянстві». Гарна була гра акторів та й посміялися трохи.
А завтра знову до праці… Ех, час так швидко збігає. Слава Богу, що після завтра знову вихідні.

Так, що спішіть любити, кохати та просто насолоджуватись життям!

Сергій та Оленка.

P.S. Моїй дружині Оленці присвячується:

Есть женщин прекраснейших много,

Но мне хорошо лишь с тобой.

Наверно, ты послана Богом,

Что стала моею судьбой.
Смотрю в твои милые очи,

И сколько бы лет ни прошло,

В ненастные тёмные ночи

С тобою тепло и светло.
И счастье безоблачно наше,

И нету любви горячей,

Ведь солнца весеннего краше

Сиянье улыбки твоей!


Привіт,




Минулого тижня ми всією сімєю ходили в гральний зал "Пластилін", який відкрився в приміщенні супермаркету "Обжора" в м. Маріуполі.

Це є щось по типу того, що в нас колись було в парку ім. Шевченка в м. Рівне. Тільки поставили туди вже нові сучасні ігрові автомати. Та й грошей треба платити більше.



Дітям дуже сподобалося. Особливо гратися і лазити по лабіринтах. Ось є декілька фото.















Це наші нові члени сімї!
Два папуги: Кеша та Гоша.
Нам їх без усякого попередження віддала на догляд сімя брата моєї дружини. Відмовитися ми не змогли. Ось так буває в житті...



Знайди своїх однокласників!

Привіт всім!

Хочу поділитися з вами цікавим російським сайтом:

http://www.odnoklassniki.ru/

Тут можна знайти своїх однокласників, друзів, коллег. Можна також давати запити на пошук потрібних вам людей. Можна розміщати свій фотоальбом та фото своїх друзів.

А саме головне, що він актуальний і для України. Я, наприклад, знайшов в базі данних свою рідну школу №10.

Одним словом цікава штука на російськомовному інтернет просторі.

Рекомендую! Приєднуйтесь та шукайте.

Правда, будьте обережні: один раз спробуєте- ще захочеться.

З дружнім привітом,

Сергій, Олена, Рут і Сара.
