Chip\u2019s Thoughts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Well, another day with a plan arrives and the plan bites the dust! Our plan to visit a military outfit and a local Mayor got bumped until Friday, instead, we were taken to a high hill overlook of the city of Ivano-Frankivsk and surrounding valley. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We then left to visit a lake area and have Lunch with two people, Maria & Ivan who have been working to provide aid to IDPs who have flooded the area from the East. The Ivano-Frankivsk Church has assisted in those efforts and Maria and Ivan have been attending church over the past few months. We returned to the hotel around 4 p.m. We also received a document from the Mayor of Yaremche to take back and talk with some of our political contacts to see how they could help with foreign aid. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our plan tomorrow is the one we had started with today, but as I\u2019ve come to see, “We’ll see!” Perry and I ended our day with a bowl of ice cream and a dark chocolate sleeping pill! \ud83d\ude03\ud83d\ude03 and instead of playing the game \u201cWhere’s Waldo\u201d we are starting a new one called, \u201cWhere’s Gif!”\u00a0 Please continue praying for your mission team! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perry\u2019s Thoughts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Yesterday\u2019s plans were again changed starting with Lubov not being able to see us due to other issues that came up and the disappointing news that meeting with the students and community will not happen this week and Ivan doesn\u2019t believe it will happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The visit to the military base was again postponed until today at 10:00 a.m.\u00a0 The positive was, that Maria & Ivan Mykhalovch invited us for lunch at a very beautiful spot with a small lake and manicured grounds where weddings take place. Our merry lasted till about 3:00. She had many questions about the Church as to why it is so contrary to the Orthodox Church. We didn\u2019t get to all questions but further studies will take place. She is very interested but not sure about Ivan Mykhalovch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
