Where has the time gone!!!!

I just cannot believe how fast the time has flown this year.  We leave for Russia in just about one month.  I went today with Elya to drop off our visa applications in Washington, DC.  Please pray that everything will go well and that we will be able to pick them all up safe and sound!!  We are gathering all of the final supplies that we will need to pull off two VBS's each day that we are in Vibity and Soltsi.  Please pray for our team members, for the children we will meet, for the adults we will encounter, and for the church in Soltsi and those that they send to support us on this journey.

Thank you to everyone who came out for our Russian dinner fundraiser.  I think I can say we all had a great time of food and fellowship and we are all so grateful that God has called us to go on this trip this year.  I know God has great things planned because Satan has been trying to get to each member of our team.  But our God is greater and He will guide our steps and set us exactly where we need to go.  I have to admit that I have lists everywhere so that we don't forget everything that we think we may need, but I was reminded tonight that even if we took not one craft or one decoration with us, God would supply everything that we would need to accomplish all that He would have us do.  I think my emotions have transformed from anxious to excited!!

If you are interested in joining us on the fantastic journey, we desperately need your prayers.  Just leave a comment and let us know you will be part of our prayer team.  We are also still taking monetary donations which will be used to support the projects that we will be doing in Russia as well as offsetting the cost of the trip.  We would love for you to partner with us on this trip and will keep you informed on what God is doing through our team.  Thank you so much for your support.
