“HELP IS ON THE WAY”

School in our village
Posted by HELPER - Omsk
The Bleiles, leaders of the HELP Drug Rehab in Siberia report:
The public awareness and openness of the government with regards to our ministry has increased drastically.
This is – in part – due to the tremendous ever increasing need in a
country with huge drug and alcohol problems.
”How can I become free from drug addiction?” That’s the burning question for many people.
Lately there were many open doors for sharing our experiences with people living around us.
Invited by the mayor of our village our men shared at the local school of how God healed them from addiction and how He meets their hunger for real life.
Accompanied by a medical doctor we are going to tour other schools too, in order to meet with even more youth. The vocational training school in Omsk invited us to share about Jesus in all classes.

Vitali’s story is getting famous in our area
There is a little Christian booklet given out in our area.
It contains Vital’s story – telling how his life as a former addict got changed through Jesus. He is one of our “old guys” and lives with his wife in our village where he started a house church. Through passing on the little booklet with Vitali’s story we are able to invite interested people of our village to start a life with God.

Eleven men moved on to second stage
We are very happy to see eleven of our men moving on, each of them provided with a job, facing the challenges of everyday life and growing in God. We were able to rent a second flat in a residential area for them, where they live on their own and independent from the rehab, but still enjoying the support of the community.
