5 week countdown!

It is just 5 weeks until our trip to Ukraine. I can't believe it is coming up so fast.
Our daughter Becca and Sam are coming from D.C. to take care of the girls. Becca will take care of the girls and the girls will take care of Sam. :)

We are so blessed to have family here while we are gone. This will make it possible for the girls to continue their animal care and not have to be away from home.

We are so much looking forward to meeting our translator Yana, and seeing Hal and Dima and Galya. We very much look forward to ministering to the children and spending time with them. There is much to do and much to learn.

I hope we do have time to visit the Retirement home. It isn't a retirement home like we have, but more of a hospital for those who have no where to go, who are sick and bedridden. I hope we can offer love and hope to them and be able to share Jesus with those who don't have long to be on this earth.

As the time comes up, please be in prayer for finances, both for Mike and I and for the monies needed for supplies to the orphanages and TB sanitarium. Please pray that God will prepare the hearts of those who hear the message of Jesus Christ to follow that call. Please pray that the Lord will send long term workers to disciple and minister to the children and those who graduate from the orphanages.

Dima and Galya are doing so very much, but can't do it all.

Please pray for wisdom for Mike and I as we endeavor to serve our Lord.
