ИИСУС ВОСЌРЕС ВОИСТИНУ ВОСКРЕС

JESUS IS RISEN! HE TRULY HAS RISEN!

We celebrated Easter last week, but in Ukraine it was celebrated today. They celebrate Orthodox Easter! We learned this Easter greeting in last week's language class.

We look forward to a letter from the children. Hopefully we will hear from them this week. We received some more great artwork from Galia last week. She is quite the artist. Yes, I know we are already very proud parents.



We spent this weekend in NC taking care of Samuel and Josiah (our 3 year old and 1 year old grandsons) while Rebekah and Tim attended a conference in Greensboro. Even so, we actually had a little time on Saturday while they napped, to study our Russian lessons. For that we were thankful! We also found a great park to enjoy with them also.

Our Russian language study is progressing. We are actually beginning to see concrete improvement. Please pray as we continue to study. We also need prayer for the final immigration form to arrive so we can complete our dossier and of course finances.

Most of all, we really appreciate your prayers.

Have a great week.

Steve & Carol
