Honestly Last Week Was Hard

By In Ministry, New , 0

Honestly last week was difficult!

I’m not complaining but some weeks it seems like it all comes at once.

Last week Christina’s uncle passed away in Nickolaev so Christina took a day and attended the funeral.

The van also broke down and ended up costing us about $600 in repairs.

We also had some difficult counseling situations with a couple we are working with.

And we just started remodeling our kitchen and bathroom (you can see what that looks like here)!

But God is good and sometimes we need to be reminded that we live in a fallen world, a world that desperately needs God’s redeeming power.

Last week we certainly could sense the fallen part!

With every problem also comes some ministry opportunities. Two days after Christina traveled to Nickolaev for her uncle’s funeral, I also went to Nickolaev.

Grace Church in Nickolaev

I helped lead an all day evangelism seminar for about 45 people. How exciting to see the desire of this church to enlarge God’s Kingdom by sharing the power of Jesus Christ!

Sorry for the silence on the blog, but it’s not because there’s nothing happening here!

Thank you for all your prayers!

Here’s a question: Can I pray for you? Let me know what I can pray for.

PS. Tomorrow we are taking the family to Western Ukraine for a little rest, I’ll probably post some videos on it when I get a chance. You can catch them on Youtube.

    Yay for rest! We are praising God our family is well after weeks of sickness. We are praying for 80% by end of summer.

      Yes rest is vital in ministry. We will pray with you for that 80%, how exciting!

    Sounds like that family rest in Western U will be much needed and used to the “hilt.” Blessings my friend.

      Yes, the kids have been looking forward to it for a long time, it’s one of their favorite places!

    Man! That’s quite a time of it. Sounds as though the family rest was very well timed.

      Yes, it was well timed and much needed! I’m so thankful that God allowed for us to get away for awhile. Now we are back in Odessa and back to work feeling refreshed.
