When it's 30 below in Siberia

OM International
A TV crew from Finland has just braved the minus-30 degree temperatures of Novosibirsk, Russia, to film the work of OM’s Discipleship Centre (DC). OM and a Finnish TV station have agreed on a joint project to produce two films--a short promotional film about OM Russia, and a documentary that will be shown on Finnish TV following the story of DC graduate Sasha, who turned from drug addiction to Christian ministry with children. The latter will be in Russian, but with Finnish or English subtitles. Please pray for a good response to both projects!

Also remember the 5-person Canadian team that is back in Novosibirsk to continue work on the new DC building. DC students, meanwhile, left on a two-week outreach on 19 February, visiting schools to give lectures on AIDS, smoking, and the dangers of drugs and alcohol. They will also work with youth and children in orphanages and help the local church in any way possible.
