I know you had Easter last weekend. Our Easter is coming this weekend. It's quite different this year, isn't it? :)))
May the Lord bless you and your family to spend this time in a deep reflection and in being united with True Love.
Now it’s a good time to stop, to reevaluate the meaning of your life and to think about the changes!
I believe that many of us will come out of this time renewed and full of energy!
Such will be those who will come out of this quarantine time having spent it with Christ.
He certainly can lead us through this time, because He Himself went through the difficult time at the Calvary.
He said: “Let not my will be, but Thy"
He humbled himself by being obedient, even to death and to the death on the cross.
Christ, in the most difficult time for Himself, thought about His disciples and about His family. We also decided with the team to devote this time to help others. One result of such endeavours is the International Sport Community project which we plan to start this week.

When we thought with the team how we can help our friends during this difficult time, the idea was born to launch this project. Our main team of Athletes in Action leaders decided to serve our partners, children and parents through personal online trainings/practices. Now many parents and partners are confused, some are depressed. What can greatly help to ease/relieve this situation is physical exercises, sports community. And if our coaches add to this the elements of encouragement, accountability and socializing, this becomes a powerful tool to help people. And the coaches themselves get encouraged when they see how God uses them in other people's lives.
In practice our help is that we conduct a personal training on Skype or through Zoom. We see you, you see us. Every morning from 4.00 till 13.00 at your time zone, we are ready to conduct a personal training/practice with you or your children. With you - fitness training, with children - games and football/soccer training.
This will be a 50-60 minute session with a personal coach. He will watch how you are doing through the practice/training and will give his/her feedback.
Our coaches who will do these practices, have an experience and gifts in this direction. For the first training session, I will also personally get in touch and be online.
Ideally, you need to have at least three trainings/practices so that you could really “taste” the joy and the blessings from them. What you will receive as a result of such ministry to you is: stress reduction, deep sleep, good mood, weight loss. This is vital during quarantine. It is also important for your children to have sports in life, for them it’s fun to play outdoor games, to develop new skills in football/soccer, good sleep and mood, communication and socializing with the children in Ukraine (our children will show some exercises).
We can minister to you through this - completely free of charge. We already do such trainings in our ministry, and we want to serve you this way. For me and my children such sports online trainings is a great blessing in this difficult time. We now are in the process of making a video of how such training looks like in practice and will soon send it to you. We also will make a web page with more detailed information.
If you are interested, please write to me and we will arrange a training session for you starting already next week.

We are isolated but the community goes on and the Lord keeps us connected ;-)
Recently God gifted us with the possibility due to the quarantine to go through online training - Life Coaching - it is "an art" how to help other people in their life sphere questions (for example marriage, health, spiritual growth etc) and how to ask them right and needed questions, how to be their help and encouragement and to provide with the accountability and soul support. I feel very tired, even more than when there was no quarantine but this is a pleasant intellectual, emotional and spiritual tiredness from God :-) Also we continue communication through a popular social net now - ZOOM - team meetings, prayer meetings, Bible studies with the athletes from different kind of sports etc. Также мы продолжаем общение через популярную сеть сейчас ZOOM - встречи с командой, молитвенные встречи, изучение Библии со спортсменками разных видов спорта и много разного. Please pray that the Lord would use me and my team in a further application of this "art" and so we'd be able to help Sport Kids children and parents, our relatives, friends and so on I already did some first coaching ZOOM calls/meetings, wohoo!
Please pray for my fellowship time with Masha, my disciple, who I told you before, who has 5 children and husband and all grandmas and grandpas live together and now it's a quarantine time...Pray they wouldn't go crazy :)))) I try to have at least some time with Masha and to study the parables of Jesus with her. Pray for her heart to be open for God!
ZOOM Bible studies - different sportsman's character traits studies - ladies athletes - football/footzal, boxing, swimming, basketball, table tennis, javelin-throwing, basketball etc champions. Also I teach them English! All those who want to learn during this time. It's a lot of fun and patience!!!!
Also I offered them to go through life coaching with me. Please pray they would be open and God would use me to help them through this amazing "art"!

Now we pray with you and think how this coronavirus story will end. Also, our team of Athletes in Action pray every day at 9.38 am, according to Matthew chapter 9, verse 38, so that “the Lord would send the labourers to His field.” The fields now turned white and are in need of workers. We also want to pray for you during this time, about your more specific needs. Therefore, please let us know what exactly we can pray for you during this difficult time. When I look at the news from the USA, the motivation for me to pray for you grows higher. We are one family, we are partners and we want to know how you are walking through this difficult time.
We are isolated but the community goes on and the Lord keeps us connected ;-) Thank you for your prayers and for the support, and for the answers of many those who shared their prayer requests, you are in my prayer list!
Hugs in Christ,
Anya ;-)
