How beautiful are the feet (the car) of messengers!
And how will anyone go and tell them without being sent? That is why the Scriptures say, “How beautiful are the feet of messengers who bring good news!” (Rom 10:15)
It has always been interesting to think about the logic of this verse. But when I started writing this letter, I remembered just how helpful this is. For an evangelist, legs are very important, or in other words, what he uses to move around. In my case, a car is very important for my ministry.
Lately, I have become even more strengthened in what the Lord has called me to do, and that the South of Siberia, Khakassia, is exactly the place where God wants me to see now in order to bring the Gospel to people. Immense spaces, and hundreds of kilometres where there are cities, regional centres and outback villages, where there are no Evangelical churches or even Orthodox churches. We have already visited about two hundred places. Many places open their doors and we visit them at least twice a year, and some once every three months.
One of the tasks I set for myself was not to travel alone. This is a biblical principle. That’s why I always take someone with me. Most often these are teenagers, young adults, or even adult Christians who want to try their hand at mission trips. God also sends those who dedicate themselves to permanent service. But this is always a limited number since the car can only accommodate 5 people with me.
There are also situations when strange sounds begin to appear in the car. As a girl, I don’t know or understand them, so I start praying, “Lord give this car wings!” And God answers prayers.
I would like to tell you about the girl Diana. She comes from a non-believing family. She came to the Good News Club in Abakan. But as a teenager, she began to come less. I would not like to lose her. And then I decided to take her with me by car to the next city for a teenage club with girls. There she made Christian friends, she repented, and now she is actively involved in serving children in Khakassian villages. Thank God that my transport can serve to save souls and involve them in ministry.
There are thoughts about selling the old car that I already have and buying a new car, or a car in good condition that I can use at least 10 years.
Because of this, with the blessing and support of CEF leadership in Moldova, I have launched a project to raise funds to buy a car, to help me to be more efficient, effective and safe in my ministry in Khakassia.
To buy a car, I need €6,000. Will you pray with me that God will meet this need? It is a big sum for me, but it is not for Him I know. If God puts the desire in your heart to give so that I can buy this car, then contact us as soon as possible and let us know.
Thank you for being part of the ministry in Khakassia!
With much respect Marina Tsapkova together with the CEF leaders of Moldova, Teo and Ramona Ene.

Pray for the children who hear the GOSPEL!
Having a ministry car enables me to travel to many locations with the Gospel. Pray for each life who hears about Him. May He bring life to those who desparately need it.
