So I have finished up my
first month in Ukraine.  I am so in
thankful for the peace that God has given me. 
I know I am truly where I am supposed to be and it is an amazing
feeling.  Things over all have been great.   I think one of the biggest challenges is
growing together with five other people you may not have chosen to be friends
with back home.  But I am finding this is
true community, learning to love despite differences.  I am seeing God’s grace and provision in our team a lot as we grow together. 

Now I am in Romania and
we have just spent time with the squad as a whole.  Three teams will stay back in Bucharest to do
ministry.  Thankfully I am one of them.  The 5 others will head all
over Romania and 1 to Ukraine.  It feels
nice to be in a city and be able to have a little more access to things.  I am not sure exactly what we will be doing here
but it sounds like we will be doing construction, women’s ministry for abused
women and maybe more kids camp.  I will
keep you posted
