Tambov
In Tambov we also had four outreach concerts. They really liked our music which made it easy for us to talk with them. At the concerts we handed out our cds, posters and Gospel of John booklets. Afterward they showed us around the city. They were very exited to talk with us and ask us questions. Many of them had questions after reading the Gospel of John.
A Testimony From young man named Dima
"This is the way I came to Christ. I first came to the concerts that Christian American band Sorrow Underfoot was doing in Tambov in August. There was also some Russian Christian bands playing with them, including Rh from Calvary Chapel Tambov. Maxim from Rh talked to me about Christ. I was curious and Maxim told me about his life and how he found Christ. He invited me to Calvary Chapel. There I started to learn more about Jesus. I prayed to Jesus that I would get along better with my family, which included my mother, grandfather, and brother. Jesus answered my prayer and things improved. I prayed that I might learn to play the drums at church and Jesus helped me.
I was a disc jockey working at a disco. There I saw a lot of drunkenness, smoking, and even strip teasing going on there every evening. It never bothered me much before, but after I found Christ, it seemed dirty and disgusting to me. I wanted to find another job. I prayed about it and before I could even start looking, an old friend called me up and asked if I would like to work as a clown for a company that did birthday parties. I took it and I like it much better! I thank
Jesus for finding me this job. Jesus has done other little miracles in my life as well.
I have changed. I feel happier and more peaceful about my life. My family has noticed the change and say that it is an improvement. I enjoy talking to God in prayer and singing praise songs to Him at home. Maxim is teaching me to play some of my favorite worship songs on the guitar. I hope to play in the worship band one day."
