Hello again,

What a privilege it has been to be called a Christian since my new birth on July 21, 1996! Also what a privilege it has been to serve the Lord with my family here since May of 2012!

In August, with the help of Bro. Slavi Dichev, we gave out Bible portions in 1 city and 3 villages, totally 2,175 books. August 27-29 we had the opportunity to go to Thessaloniki, Greece, to help my brother in law, missionary Eric Fair, and a group of brethren from America. Nearly 4000 Greek NT Bibles were given out. In September we gave out the Word in another 2 villages. Also in September we were with the Maulucci family and three men from New Jersey for three days. We were in many villages and several cities together spreading THE GOOD NEWS! A few days ago Bro. Maulucci gave these statistics: 221 cities have been given the Word, 36 cities remain (for the entire country). 3,676 villages have been given the Word, 1323 remain. That’s 2,304,383 house/families given the Word and about 150,000 remain (again, for the entire country). Mark 16:15- And he said unto them, Go ye into all (Bulgaria) the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. God would have all men to be saved, 1 Timothy 2:4.

On September 14, we had three follow the Lord in believer’s baptism. One of which was the 21 year old young man, Asen Cholakov, that I had written about in the last update. An older lady named Zorka and a middle aged man named Sasho were the other two. Our little church family in Karnobat is doing okay; but we are in need of spiritual growth and commitment to our Lord Jesus in holiness and separation from worldly and fleshy sins and or habits. Tomorrow, October 1, we are starting to fast collectively, 2 people per day for the month, that we might overcome these besetting sins. It’s not just one thing, there are many things that tempt us not to be the Christians that our Lord has saved us to be.

From October 20-24 we plan to be in Scotland for a special meeting with Bulgarians living in the Arbroath area. The missionaries there have been preparing for this meeting. Please pray with us that God would use us; and that Bulgarians would yield to the Holy Spirit for salvation and sanctification. Last but not least: We have found doctors for Alyssa here. She is doing well. She started working for a christian family business about three weeks ago. It has been a good experience for her. We are praising the Lord for these answers to prayer. May God bless you all; and as always thank you for prayers and support.

Bro. Danny Kessler and Family
