So far, my stay in America has been awesome!  😀  I love being able to hang out with my friends here, meet new people, serve in churches, and share the vision that God has for us in Ukraine.  So far, I’ve spoken (and sometimes done worship) at Friday Night Live (a youth group at Horizon Indy), Horizon Indianapolis, Harvest Ft. Wayne, and Calvary Chapel Bible College Indianapolis.  Yesterday was Harvest Ft. Wayne.  I really enjoyed that.  I made some new friends and met a couple that is planning on adopting a girl from Ukraine soon.  Please pray for them.  I invited them to come visit us in L’viv, and I hope they will, because the girl they are hoping to adopt is from Western Ukraine.

All this week, I have breakfast, lunch, and dinner appointments with different friends that have supported me by prayers, communication, and finances.  I really appreciate all that you guys have done since I made the commitment to move to Ukraine!

Here are a couple of pictures of Friday Night Live, the youth group that I spoke at this last Friday.  I had a great time there.  I’m proud of those guys.  They are bubbling over with this young enthusiasm.  Any time any of them has a problem, they all gather around and pray (they did that in the picture below).  I used to serve in that youth group right before I left for Ukraine.  They are part of the inspiration I had in starting the youth group we have in L’viv.

Please be praying for them that they would mature in their faith and become more and more young men and women after the heart of God.  They really have a great group going right now.

Thanks a lot for you guys’ continued prayers and support while I’m here in America.  I only have about 4 1/2 weeks left in the U.S.!  Time is flyin’.

God bless!
