Our church is not called “Salvation” by chance. Every man
coming into this world needs salvation from difficulties and problems, but the
thing we need the most is the salvation of our soul and the eternal life with
God. This is why the purpose of the teaching and the sermons preached in our
church is the healing of diseases, deliverance from addictions, restoration of
the relationships in families, and the most important - every man’s meeting
with God Who can forgive sins and give the true happiness.
No man is obliged to attend our very church. You can attend any
church where you feel good. However, we will always be glad to see both you and
your family at our services and also minister to you. Our church is a family
having room for everyone. We love you and God loves you!
Pray and rejoice, serve and
multiply, dream and build up, bring up and love and win always!
Yours sincerely,
Philip
Savochka
The senior pastor and
the bishop of the “Salvation” churches

New Testaments. “Light your candle when you come home as a token of your birth
for the new life together with Jesus Christ today!” said pastor Philip.

maintained in the “Salvation” church for several years. While singing carols we
go to people and tell them about the real value and meaning of Christmas.

audience about Christmas and showed a play.
