On November, 6th the celebratory service devoted 19 years' anniversary to church has taken place.
On November, 2nd, 1992 for the first time in our city at a cinema "Zvezdny" there was evangelism. It was organized by Vyshny Volochek Baptist church. Here is a videorecording of this event memorable for us:
This day we consider a birthday of our church. After 19 years we have again gathered to thank the Lord for His wonderful affairs.
In the first part of service Andrey Malyhin, Lyudmila Zhigunova and Antonina Luchaj which were on the first evangelism have shared memoirs on this event. Lija Kazharina from V.Volochek, arrived for a holiday, also remembered this day - after all she sang as a part of church chorus on the first evangelism.
In this time the church has considerably grown. God has given us the House of the Prayer where we can free gather. Services constantly develop in churches. Each church service has presented itself to this holiday. It is Sunday school, youth service, service of home groups on Bible studying, female service, Gideon service (visiting of prisons and houses for aged), rehabilitation service, service of Christian camps, musical service and many other things.
A lot of words of gratitude and praise prayer to our Lord sounded this day. After service we have a dinner and time for fellowship.
