Friday

We had a great day today. We had a leaders meeting at the church with 16 HH leaders. We spent some time hearing from each of the leaders..it was a blessing to hear what they are doing in ministry & to hear the tesimony's of the new leaders. We had 6-7 new leaders. Also a great answer to prayer...Tatiana contacted Valentina a few days ago (we were praying that Valentina would be able to get in touch with her) She joined us for the day today & shared a great testimony of how God has been working in her life. She is a key leader in the Donetsk region...more later. Valentinia shared her passion and vision for the ministry and we shared with them about the Big picture vision for Ukraine. Teresa and Barb taught from the Word regarding 'Living Out Your Calling". We had a great response & we know that they were hearing & in agreement....Valentina said to light a fire under these ladies!!
Kathy was feeling much better today & began eating again...an answer to prayer!
Teresa and Barb are taking a taxi at 6:00am to pick up Lera, one of our past translators, from the train station...she will help us tomorrow. We will also have some time to meet with Lera & Valentina tomorrow morning regarding future communication & ministry. Lera will be helping us with communicating with Russian speaking people after we return to the US. We are packing and getting ready for a 14 hour train ride tomorrow night...pray for sleep as we will change clothes on the train and go right to the church service at Tranformation Church. Thanks for you prayers...we will be in touch from Kiev before we fly to Amsterdam on Tuesday. Good night.... love, Barb (Teresa & Kathy)
