Ukraine

On Tuesday (6/28) Lydia, Grant, and I (Haley) will be leaving for Ukraine. Our good friends, Nathan, Mary, and Audrey Schuck are coming also. We will be there until the second week of August, working with a local church in Odessa that is hosting a camp for gypsy children and two camps for people with disabilities.

Here are some things you can pray for the trip:

---To arrive safely The trip to Odessa is pretty involved. We are driving to Toronto on Tuesday night, flying to Montreal on Wednesday, where we have 45 minutes to catch out next plane, have a two hour layover in Frankfurt, arrive in Kiev, Ukraine on Thursday, take a bus to the train station, and have an 8 hour train ride to Odessa.

---For the hearts of the staff to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit and the work He wants accomplished.

---For the language barrier to be overcome. Especially for me, I want to be able to minister to people, but have almost zero knowledge of the language (Russian).

---For those attending the camp to be receptive to God’s message of salvation and to draw nearer to Christ through the camp.

---For peace in Ukraine. Some of you might know there is a civil war happening along the East coast.

---For health for the team. Thank you for joining us in prayer! We can’t wait to see what the Lord has in store.
