Abortion Survivor Speaks: Sasha Presents on Sanctity of Life Sunday

tingministries

On Sunday, January 22, 2023, I was blessed to share my story as an abortion survivor and Russian adoptee at Freedom in Christ Fellowship, in Lebanon, PA. The Lord has granted me an incredible testimony of redemption. In this service (full video above) I share:

  • My story of adoption at 17 months old to being reunified with birth family in 2018. A message of redemption, forgiveness and grace, for all those impacted by abortion: birth mothers, birth fathers, children, adoptive families.
  • What the Bible tells us about the Sanctity of Human Life (Deuteronomy 30:19, Proverbs 31:8-9, Ephesians 1-2; Romans 8:1)
  • Practical steps we all can take to be a Voice for the Voiceless in our society, including recent statistics on the reasons women face the choice of abortion and what can be done to support family strengthening
  • Bonus Video Below: I closed the service in the Aaronic Benediction in English and Hebrew (music by Marty and Misha Goetz.) I’ve been blessed to share this performance on other occasions, notably at the Jericho March in Washington, D.C.

May the Lord bless you and keep you.

Lera’s Dance at Castle Garibaldi

tingministries
Lera’s dance goes to….a real-life castle?!
That’s right! Lera dances in front of Castle Garibaldi – Замок Гарибалди. Her story was also recently featured on the Instagram page of a Russian Autism Awareness foundation. They highlighted her beautiful spirit of compassion as she serves children and teaches dance to those who otherwise would not have the opportunity to participate in such a class. We love you Lera! You are beautiful and talented – keep shining your light for Jesus!
To support Lera’s Dance so students can continue lessons for the upcoming school year:
