| Well, we are spending lots of time together :)The airports in Kyiv will close in a few days and as a YWAM leadership team we have made a decision to have our staff do a self-quarantine. That means that for those that live here at the Missions Center, we will not be going into the city, nor taking public transportation. The only thing we will do is travel to the small grocery stores nearby for food. So what does this mean for us and the work we do? 1) We will continue to teach our night Bible course but we will offer it online rather than meet together. 2) We will still begin our 9 month SBS on March 22. The students have come early, and some will do it online until they are able to fly in when it is safer. 3) We will both still be teaching and also continuing to help lead our organization through this time. 4) Angela will be homeschooling the children through their assignments that have been sent home by the school. We are so blessed to live in a beautiful place. Our kids can still run around and play outside, and we can still be doing what we have been called to do. Thank you for praying for us during this time. Our biggest prayer request is that no one in our community will get sick because we do have some staff that have compromised immune systems. We also pray for our family and friends all over the world to be safe and healthy. Of course, our lives will one day end, and we are thankful to know that the God of this universe has more planned for us beyond this life. In the meantime, we want to be faithful here, enjoy our relationship with Him and with each other. We want to walk in faith, not fear; joy, not sadness; expectancy, not anxiety. |
| I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all things through him who gives me strength. ~The Apostle Paul Philippians 4:13 |
