A Very Interesting Article from the BBC 4

I have found its Ukrainian version on our deacon's blog and then I have found its original on the BBC 4 web-site. If you are a Lutheran, you will not regret reading it.  The title of the article is: The eurozone's religious faultline.  To read it click the following link: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-18789154

Christ Is Risen! He Is Risen Indeed!

Christ Is Risen!  He Is Risen Indeed!

Dear visitors of the Ukrainian Lutheran Weekly!

Please receive most sincere greetings from the Ukrainian Lutheran Church on these very light days of Easter when we celebrate the glorious Resurrection of Jesus Christ, our dear crucified Savior. By His blood He washed away all our sins and by His death on the cross He conquered our death and scattered all the dark accusations of the devil.  Let us rejoice in Jesus’ Resurrection and remembering His empty tomb, in expectation of His glorious return and our own resurrection, let us proclaim everywhere this wonderful fact: Christ Is Risen!  He Is Risen Indeed! Христос воскрес!  Воістину воскрес!

In Christ, our Risen Lord and Savior,

Rev. Dr. Vyacheslav Horpynchuk,

Bishop, Ukranian Lutheran Church

Ladies' Bible Breakfast

     Ladies of the Resurrection Lutheran Church in Kyiv had their regular Bible Brekafst today. Tasting coffee, tea and sweets they were exploring "Martha, a Generous Hostess of Bethany" topic.  After studies of the Old and New Testament Scriptures (Proverbs 31, Luke 10:38-42 and John 11:17-44) sisters in Christ not only have strengthened their faith but also have discussed how to get their priorities right, especially in the season of Lent.
