Dear <<First Name>>, 


I finally got Christina to sit down with me so I could ask her a few questions about her counseling ministry. I learned a few things myself during our conversation!

Great turnout for our first Russian lessons of the year!


We started our Russian lessons for foreign students this past Saturday!

One of our teachers was sick so I ended up teaching two groups and Noelle helped me!

We had students from 5 different countries. Some have been in Ukraine for 4-5 years and others have just been her for a few months! Please pray for this coming Saturday's Russian lessons as we will be in Kyiv so our Ukrainian teachers will be in charge!

Traveling to Kyiv
Lord willing today we are traveling by car to Kyiv. We will be visiting our church plant that we have partnered with and I will also be attending a discipleship seminar. Please pray for our travels as it seems our car had some transmission issues. I will need to replace the seal when I get back.
