Keeping the Pace!

Greetings!

I hope and pray you read the last blog; I need your prayers.

We are in Nikolaev and had a great service on Sunday in New Generation Church. Last night we opened a new school in the Fire of Revival, there are 15 students. It is exciting to participate in a new work, both the college and the church. We are staying in the pastors home and we are being treated like royalty. This is something I am very uncomfortable with. The food is out of this world even for Ukraine. It is beyond the normal great food!

Today, Pastor and I sat for a time and asked questions on a one to one basis. We both felt very safe to ask the type of questions one does not normally ask. This really was the first ‘safe’ conversation I have had with a pastor that I could truly ask and not be intimidated, and Pastor felt the same way. It is good to begin a new relationship with trust.

I did not realize until this moment how past hurts have affected my trust level. I am thankful God is healing these deep hurts. I was confronted with many of the past issues of the college this weekend and many tears fell; remembering the difficult times yet it feels good that I can move forward in God’s strength.

Tonight and tomorrow we teach here in Nikolaev. By the way, there four colleges here, so if you get confused . . . I am baffled at times also! Thursday night we are preaching in Odessa and teaching on Friday. Saturday we teach 9 hours in Kherson for the Master class. Hopefully our Saturday night we will return to Odessa again. By Monday morning we need to be in Cherkassy.

Tuesday, next week we have a Master class in Cherkassy. I have to be in Kyiv for graduation and to begin a new Master class on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Friday evening I leave for Dnepropetrovsk for graduation and a doctorate class. Please pray God provides human strength and fortitude for me. I also need God’s wisdom and for the Holy Spirit to prepare the way.

Thank you for your continued prayer support.
May God shine His face upon you today
