David's blog

Well for those of you who have been here and know many of the same friends
as we do I would like to give you all an update on who we have seen and
reconnected with. Also I apologize to everyone for not knowing everyone’s
last names but I will try to describe everyone in a way that those of you
who know them will recognize them.

On Tuesday the 11th we met with Pastor Armen and Pastor Igor Kuraksin
(He came with Bill once to St Luke’s) who had invited us out for lunch to

Hope this update finds everyone doing well! We really have been having

Just a short note here to let everyone know we have arrived in Kharkiv Ukraine safely!!
We could have not asked for a better trip in every way. It is really good to be here and see all of our friends again. We went to church today and got to see many of them but look forward to connecting with even more of them as time goes by here!
Please continue to pray.
We Love all of You!
