Re-organization of Ministry

We had an interesting administrators meeting on October 22. I know God is doing something different; yet I had no idea what. Today I discovered His plan! We are re-organizing the ministry, what a shock! I believe this will raise the level of our college; improving our productivity and communication.

The legal administrator will quit as of December 31. We need to draw up a new contract with a new legal address. One of the administrators is a business man and has reviewed the tax papers for the past five years and found many errors.

With the government inspecting religious institutions more closely, our administrator wants out. She realizes she made errors and does not want to be held accountable. Please pray that God gives me wisdom on who to place as Director and accountant. Both of these positions will dictate everything the college will do in the future. Also, she wants to be paid $1000 for her services. The college does not have this kind of money and God will have to supply for us.

I have been traveling four or five days a week. This week I am home for four days. What a treat. Even though I am home, I preached in church yesterday and there is a Master and Doctorate class in the office this week.

Nine graduation services have been completed and we have two services remaining in Kyiv.

Many schools have quit this year because of cost. I believe we get what we pay for. Students are charged 30 hrv (Ukrainian money) which is equal to about $3.80 per month for an undergraduate degree for nine months of $34 per year.

Please pray that our students realize what they are receiving. American programs of facts and figures have presented along with other Ukrainian educational programs. Yet, they believe because it is a Christian program, that it should be free. They only shake their heads and do not realize how much it costs to keep the office open.

I am very concerned about the Jerusalem Church. Their pastor is Korean and has brought in some false teachings of his culture. I have been praying for this church for six years. Please join me in prayer for them as they have discontinued the college this year.
My prayer has been that the truth would set them free. Our college material is Biblically based and overall good material. I hope and pray that some fruit will come forth from the college and the theology is corrected in their church.

Thank you for your prayers and support.
May God shine His face upon you today
Kathy
