Bimonthly Report
(Mar-Apr 2025)

Dear Saints,

The saints in Vicenza greet you! Praise the Lord that just recently, the church in Vicenza has now been officially registered and recognized by the Italian government, and we can now decrale legally the Lord's testimony in the city of Vicenza. By the Lord's mercy, we are continuing steadfastly in the healthy church life, the rich ministry and the Lord's work in this city. We are continuing faithfully in our weekly prayer meeting, life-study meeting, home meetings, small group meetings, brothers' and sisters' fellowship, and the Lord's Table meeting. The saints who are regularly attending this meetings are around 25, including zoom. We are also caring for the children and young people among us, as well as regularly shepherding gospel friends, contacts, relatives, sick ones, and dormant ones. Some of our young people from Vicenza also joined the recent European University Conference in the Netherlands.

The Lord has also been blessing the campus labor at the University of Padova as He is opening the hearts of many young people and students in receiving this ministry and also in being with the saints. The saints are in contact with around 15 students, comprising mostly of Italians, who are classmates and friends of the student saints, as well as gospel contacts from previous Bible distributions and outreach. Among these, few of them have called on the Lord's name to receive the Lord.

The Lord has also been moving strongly in the nearby cities and regions as many seeking ones and faithful believers are responding to the Lord's calling and His up-to-date ministry. Many of our brothers and sisters in Rovereto, Mantova, Rimini, San Marino, Pesaro, Ferrara, Bologna and Trieste, are continually in contact with the saints and are entering into the rich ministry of the Lord's Recovery. We strongly feel that the Lord is doing something in these cities for His testimony.

Praise the Lord for the turning of the wheel of His economy in gaining Italy for His great move on the earth to bring in His kingdom and to close this age! The Lord is Victor in Italy and His is the glory and honor, forever, Amen!

Your co-heirs in Christ,

The Church in Vicenza
