On May 29 and 30, 2023, the Olivet Leadership Institute (OLI) held Leadership training in Moscow, the CIS Olivet Center right after the Pentecost Retreat. The program consisted of Romans Chapter 5 to Chapter 8 lectures, Prayer Meetings, Breaking Bread and Meetings, Table Fellowships indoors, and other joyful barbecues outdoors.
During the Bible lectures, attendants could understand that a reborn Christian not only should walk a path of sanctification in their whole life after they are justified by Jesus’s blood, but they are also the children of God that all creations are waiting for to receive universal salvation. Christians are living between already and not yet; individuals are saved, but the whole world is not yet. God hopes the whole world and the universe will receive salvation. All should follow Jesus to finish the great commission on earth.
After graceful Bible lectures, leaders and future leaders also had productive breaking of bread, different scale meeting sections, and joyful table fellowship outdoors and indoors. Attendants testified how good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity! They hope to share the Lord’s love in all 10 countries in the CIS Regions after this OLI training when they go back to their respective countries.
