Week one is coming to a close, and I'm still alive and kickin'!
Here are some highlights:
1. I got to attend part of a youth conference. So neat to see the same things that go on at home go on here...only in Russian and Ukrainian.
2. Prayer meeting: it warms my heart to be with other believers, all praying in our own heart languages. Some prayed in Russian, some in Ukrainian, and one in English (that would be me.)
3. There are some potential opportunities to work in some schools that I wasn't planning on. I'm praying those opportunities will continue.
4. I got a cold. That wasn't the good part; the good part was that two Ukrainian friends came over to check on me, and they brought bananas and orange juice. Such great encouragement.
5. I heard from so many friends and loved ones from home. Thank you!
Hopefully, I'll update again soon. With pictures.
