The Countdow Begins

It is less than one week from the day we leave for Ukraine. Our daughter in law and grandson will arrive on Saturday! It is so close.

I am trying to tie up loose ends here to get prepared.
One of those loose ends is getting an antibiotic to take with us just in case.
Getting laundry done is a biggie.

We are trying to pack very light. We don't want to have too much luggage.

Things to pray for:

Our apartment was reduced to 1 bedroom instead of 2. We would be better with 2,because a translator will stay with us, but the price jumped, so we are having our contact look for us and when he gets back with us we will make a decision from there. We want to be careful with money and not use money we don't have to. That way we can purchase more for the kids.

Pray that we will safely arrive and get to the train station on time.
Pray for hearts to be prepared ahead of time to hear the Good News of Jesus Christ.

2 of the girlies have slight colds. Please pray that they are not sick while we are gone.

Erika developed a blister where she puts her leg on and is unable to wear her legs.
Please pray the blister HEALS before we leave so she can go out of the house!

As we visit the girls orphanage, please pray that the pictures we bring will minister to the workers there and that they will treat potential parents there to adopt nicely instead of with contempt.
Also Pray for SALVATION to all who HEAR.

EXCELLENT NEWS!



Jay and Judy are going to take the train with us to Kharkov and stay for a few days!
Yea. They are in language school in Kiev right now, but will be able to take a couple of days. That means extra study when they get back! :)


We are so happy that the girlies will be in good hands with Becca.

More later........

I'm hangin' on to my hat. This is gonna be one wild ride! :) Yippie!
