Usually our vacation time is spent either in Canada or in a neighbouring country. BUT this year we decided to stay in Ukraine and visit a few smaller cities the West. After our trip we asked the kids, what were your highlights?
Cassie: Doing the Quest Room in Rivne. It was really challenging and I like a challenge! I felt like Nancy Drew…especially finding the secret room.
Kai: I love all the stuff that we go to…the castle, the quest room…
Jay: I loved the quest room because there were so many riddles and mysteries. The pottery guy at the castle was cool too! 
What about you Ben?
Ben: All of it was good.
A man of little words.
I enjoyed spending time together in the car. Colouring… reading books…mediating fights (“I want to sit in the middle.” “No I do!”
Another highlight was that we were joined by Thelma and Esther. Two of our team members! Thelma is from India, Esther is new to our team and is from America. Both have never travelled around Western Ukraine, so we all gained more of an appreciation for the country in which we serve.
Now we look forward to some awesome days together with our YWAM Kyiv Staff, planning and praying for this coming year. Titus Project begins again in just a few weeks where we will train new Bible Teachers. And the kids will go back to school. Kai is hoping to go to preschool beginning this January with Jay. Mom and Dad are still deciding.
Happy New Year!
