In eastern Latvia there is an orphanage. Some of the children there are not really orphans, but their parents are too poor to be able to feed and clothe them. Levi is also there – not in the orphanage, but in the neighborhood. Levi is a first generation Latvian immigrant to the United States, but he has returned to Latvia. Visiting the children and taking his guests there with gifts of clothing and food are just a couple of the many things he is doing to help.
Levi is working to bring Revival to Latvia by first bringing unity to the Church. His ministry – Latvia House of Prayer for All Peoples – organizes prayer summits to hold up the Christian leadership of the various denominations represented in Latvia. He also brings the leaders together for food and fellowship. The Catholic (Roman and Orthodox), Lutheran, Pentecostal, and Baptist, leaders, and many others I can’t remember, spend time together because Levi makes it happen. They are learning to love one-another and find common ground in doctrine and the character of Jesus Christ – all the while supported by round the clock prayer and worship going on nearby.
I have included this post about Levi and his ministry because CHILD Ministries has supported Levi for many years. His supporters in the U.S. send their gifts for this ministry to CHILD for processing. We pass the gifts on to Levi and provide tax receipts to the donors each year at the end of January. If you love the people of Latvia, or children, or one accord in the Church, then I invite you to consider contributing to the ministry of Levi Graudins. Your gifts can be sent to CHILD Ministries if you want a tax receipt. Our office address is: CHILD Ministries, 33401 SE 15th St, Washougal, WA 98671. Overseas donors wishing to contribute directly to Levi’s organization in Latvia can contact CHILD Ministries and we will provide you contact information for Latvia House of Prayer for All Peoples.
