Lots of faces

Rachel is so good at remembering that we need pictures. Usually, in the classrooms, I'm in hyper-focused mode and can't see much past what lessons need to be taught. I get in the zone. Rachel, however, has been great about remembering to get pictures with our classes. The Lord has provided so many open doors and opportunities.I thought I'd post some pictures for your enjoyment.

This is our 8 am class from Thursdays. Hannah spearheaded the business lessons for this class. We learned that being punctual did not pay off for us: the students didn't show up until 8:30, so we stopped killing ourselves to get there on time...

These are the flights of steps to climb at university #2. Hannah's famous question: Are we not there YET?? Also, we named the lady in this mural Lyuda.

This is our 10:00 class at university #2. Feisty little precious ones.

11:00 class at university #2. Secretly one of our favorite classes!

Our favorite of the 'colleges.' This class, however, was a late-in-the-game addition to our teaching schedule. We love them, but man they are sassy!

Ok, this is part of the class that I've been with the longest. They were my first students in Poltava, and I have a special place in my heart for them. 2 of them are fairly regular attenders of our Wednesday night class. Please pray that the Lord will continue to draw them to Himself.

This is another late-in-the-game addition. This is the English club from Ira's school. We've led their club for about a month and a half. So sweet and so eager to learn. Several from this class have been attending our Wednesday night clubs and have heard the Truth several times.

If you've been following this blog for long, you've seen pictures of these girls several times. This is our Saturday English/Bible storying class. They are so precious. Please continue to pray for their sweet little hearts to be drawn to Him.
