Jane…speechless? It’s not possible!!
When we arrived at Larissa’s and Dima’s, they were so shocked…they called Jane for me and then put me on the phone. She said “who is this?”, when I answered it was me, she said “Where are you?” Like, where did she think I was? She had just talked to Masha…in Ukraine…and then 2 seconds later…of course I was here. She was SO shocked she was speechless. And any of you who know Jane, know that is nearly impossible!
I got home, dropped my stuff, grabbed some food, chatted with Jane, and crashed! It was nice to hit the bed, lie horizontal, and not have to go to the bathroom in a tin can in constant motion! The food was MUCH better as well!
The next morning we would start our stay off with meetings, etc. But we are here…in one piece…all to the glory of God!
till later…
Hey Jackie! I was so disappointed that you weren’t blogging this trip – I was looking on the old site! Glad you made it safely and no doubt things will settle down after you’ve gotten some rest. You’ll be all fresh for your welcome party.. Love you, take care and keep blogging!
Hey….after seeing your posts, I understand God’s promptings. Wow! What a ride! So glad you have arrived safely. Hope you still get to enjoy the “welcome” festivities planned for Saturday eve. Prayers continue for you specifically, the team in general and our Lord’s Church in Dnep.
Don’t forget that I am “looking” for a little guy named Lukas. If you happen to find “him”….let me know where to meet you. :^] Deb
Yea!!! I’m so glad you’re there safely!! Did you have tomatoes and cucumbers for breakfast? Just wondering! I loved being able to talk to you on the phone today, think how much technology has improved! You couldn’t hardly get a connection on the phone back in the 90′s when you first started going and you had to find a phone to use because most of the people didn’t have one. And today you Syped in the apartment!! I did remember to give Rick a “high five” for you. I talked with Sharon and Cathy too. I actually remembered!! The ladies Wed. night class prayed for you too, lead by Fairy Cooper. We did a devotional tonight in class, it was good.
You and the team (but you most importantly, in my opinion)
are in our minds and prayers daily. I pray blessings of great success measured by God (not man’s measurely tape!) He knows the work you’re doing and that’s the most important thing. Keep a blogging, it’s a blast to read it.
Love you girl!!
