Hi Barry, Good to see you in Ukraine! You may not remember us but this is Steve & Nancy Wooden and we’ve lived in Ukraine for 11 years. I talked with Don this morning and Ellen Smitson is staying wiith us until she leaves for the US. It is a great place to minister and God is doing great things here. Stop and see us sometime since you pass right by out apartment when you go to the airport.

Hi Barry! We are finishing our Vacation Bible School tomorrow. This year we had around 45 kids ~ most of whom don’t know the Lord. It was VERY Exciting!

Anyway ~ I wanted to ask you if you think it would be ok to send our “Jesus Loves You” blankets to the boys at the orphanage for disabled boys. This is the place in the world that has captured my heart. The boys and I have a piggy bank that we put any change that we get from anything we buy into and will save till it’s full..then send it off.

Would you mind letting me know who I should contact to see if they would want 5 blankets? I’d appreciate it!

Hope you are well and thank you for showing us the world through the Lord’s eyes. So hopeless to see it any other way!

Barry,

I too have witnessed the’ before and after’ out at the orphanage, and you have to see it to believe it! This format of journalism is a powerful tool in promoting the silent work that goes on in the remotest parts of the world. I will never forget Oksana’s words, when she first visited the Romanov orphanage, she said, “This is where Christ wants us.”

So I am sitting here watching the Chicago Blackhawks win the Stanley Cup. Thousands upon thousands are cheering (of which I am one) and millions and millions of dollars have been expended. Heroes are cheered, adored and emulated – all for………………….hockey.
Thy kingdom come! Please. I love sports, but THIS is what we must cheer. THIS is what must receive millions and millions of dollars and THESE are true heroes.
Thanks Bar

What your Dad said. I cannot ever again read any of your articles from Ukraine without weeping–whether for justice or for laughter or for love. And this one was certainly no exception. WOW and backwards WOW. Praising God and praying for you all! (And you know what my oldest son would type–please hug Peter for us!!!)

What a transformation! With God all things are possible. I am so thankful for MTU. I will be praying for the girls orphanage. God bless you all.
