Featured Photo: We went to visit a site where part of the rehabilitation efforts are forming. On the way we visited the \u201cmonastery in a rock.\u201d This was a living-quarters for someone but then it became a religious shrine. It was amazing how the place was carved out inside a rock!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first few days have been spent \u201cenjoying\u201d the indescribable jet-lag environment. But I am almost through it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the events that occurred focused on our plans for the rehabilitation programs to help others to live after the war. This will involve many facets and we have a number of excellent teams involved in it. One of the primary needs will be to help families recover. I met with a group in the Lviv Region that is planning a retreat model in which entire families can go through treatment sessions together. They are looking at a facility that will be excellent for this purpose. They should be included in the State\u2019s Budget so no cost will be involved. It will offer us a great opportunity to set up Bible studies so those traumatized by the evils of war will find the peace that passes all understanding!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are eagerly looking forward to the Lord\u2019s Day assembly! Gif says the numbers will be down because of factors associated with the on-going war. I know that a good number of those who were present in last October\u2019s trip will not be present because they have left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A reminder on posted photos\u2014we are restricted and governed by martial law due to the war. This makes it a criminal act to publish any photos unless they have been cleared by the local Security Services agents. So there will be o facial photos unless they have been approved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please continue praying for our efforts! We are dealing with some issues that have been a constant irritation and that is always prone to siphon energy and mental focus from the task at hand. But your prayers are a GREAT counter to the Devil\u2019s discouragement!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
