San Antonio and other news…

Well… I’m back, Indianapolis!  Texas was beautiful!  I was so, very glad to visit my mom and sisters.  I’m also excited to get back to Indy and get to work.  A couple of things have happened since I was gone:

  • My ticket date changed: I am now leaving in June.  This allows me more time to raise support and to share the vision with other people.
  • I have made many changes to this blog, adding pages (see above list of links – “blog”, “About Ukraine”, etc.)
  • In the pages added above, you will find lots of useful and interesting information.  🙂
  • The Pratts received their minivan!  Praise the Lord!  They are unpacking it and enjoying the gifts we sent them.
  • I visited Calvary Chapel Southside in San Antonio, TX, and that was a great blessing.  I’m hoping to go back down there and visit in a year.

Please feel free to peruse around this website to familiarize yourself with its new features.

So far, I have visited:
Horizon Indianapolis
Horizon Central Indianapolis
Calvary Fellowship of Greencastle
Calvary Chapel Terre Haute
Harvest Ft. Wayne
Calvary Chapel Ft. Wayne (the youth group)
Calvary Chapel Southside San Antonio

If you would like to book me at your church or just to have more information, please call me at 317 430 5432 or e-mail at dsnead@ccbci.org, and we’ll make some plans.  With my extended stay in the States, I should have a few more Sundays to travel around.

Texas…

Wow.  I’m actually back in my home state hanging out with my mom and sisters.  They’re out at school or jobs right now, so I’m about to go take a walk around the neighborhood, but they’ll be back this afternoon.  It’s been so long since I’ve seen them that I barely recognized Hannah.  She’s so tall…  Mom’s told me about the other boys in her class liking to hang out with her…  Somebody get me a baseball bat.  Haha.  She’s nine, now.

They’re all doing well.  Gloria is a nanny for a family near here, mom works for a Christian school, and Hannah goes to public school, and she constantly is in the newspaper for getting stellar grades.  My mom’s been in the paper too for something… she showed it to me last night… I can’t remember what it was.  I’m going to go see my older sister later this week, and I’ll be back in Indiana early next week.
Please continue to pray for wisdom.  I’m considering going out and meeting with a couple of the Calvary Chapels here in San Antonio.

The Teams Are Off!

On Monday, we sent out the CCBCi team to Ukraine.  Tuesday, we sent out the team to Kyrgyzstan.  Today, the stateside team is having their first meeting.

Here’s an update for Ukraine:

Hello to all our family and friends!
    Well this is your first update from us in Ukraine, and we made it! Everyone is alive and well and we are safely at the Pratt’s house. Just to give you guys a little update, we’ve been traveling since yesterday at 7:30 am your time, and just got done about two hours ago, it’s 8:00 am over there now. We had a few minor problems during our travels, Carly’s name was spelled wrong, Nathan had the wrong boarding passes (his had Ryan’s name too), and Josh almost wasn’t let in to Ukraine due to his passport going through the wash once before. Despite all these things, the Lord still brought us here and right on time, it’s amazing to see His hand work and bring us where He desires us to be despite the potential holdbacks! It’s been an adventure with all the traveling, and we’ve been very blessed. We will be taking a train in the morning and heading to Turnopil, so please pray that things go smoothly and we make it there okay! There are two photos attatched so you guys can have a glimpse into our journey. Thank you all so much for all of your prayers and your support! We love you all!

In Christ,
CCBCi Ukraine Practicum Team

P.S. To Heather Lee, Evyn says hi. And there were two women on the plane that thought Courtney was Nathans daughter, haha!
