Dear Family and Friends,
June was my last month for teaching. Graduation is scheduled for July 31 and that will be my last responsibility before I leave for America.
During our last Master and Doctorate classes, I asked the students to pray for the ministry. I also asked them to write a testimony of how the college has affected them personally and their church.
The testimonies were translated for me. I would like to share one very special prophecy for myself and the college. Enjoy reading God’s plans for this ministry!
Hi Kathy,
I prophesied to you according to the Book of Ezekiel. I have written my thesis, where I compared the 3 temples in Jerusalem:
1) The temple built by Solomon
2) The temple restored after Babylonian captivity
3) And the temple of Ezekiel
I saw steps which lead to the outer court, to the inner court and to the temple. The quantity of these steps is different. I compared them with their meanings and I was amazed. It’s very interesting. Proceeding from this, God touched my heart and I prophesied you.
Ezekiel 40:22, 26
Seven steps are leading to the outer court. Seven means the end of all that is human, completeness and perfection. Your past time was this period, when you taught mainly people of the outer court.
Ezekiel 40:31
Eight steps are leading to the inner court. Eight means a new beginning, resurrection. I told you, that in the USA you will get all the necessary knowledge to move to another level. People of the inner court will come to you to study. These are the people, who are Levites and priests. These are the people who dedicated their lives and destiny completely for the Lord’s service.
Ezekiel 40:49
Ten steps are leading to the temple itself. Ten means responsibility, completeness, law, order, restoration. I prophesied to you, that the time will come when priests and Zadok’s sons will study in the college. These are the people, who are dedicated to God, are constantly fellowshipping with Him, coming into His presence and are interceding before Him for the people. They are strong and separated for God. Such people are few and far between, but they are key people. They are going to study in the college.

Dear Family and Friends,
This is the last paragraph of the last blog:
We need a miracle and I am expecting one! Please pray and expect that God will quickly put the right person in place. Thank you.
We received a miracle! As I talked to people and asked for prayer, God used friends and acquaintances in church to help the ministry. My pastor, his wife, two of my interpreters and my friend Alyona met today. We discussed positions that were needed and those who could help. We also listed the responsibilities for each position.
Position and person:
Teacher/materials: Anya
Administrator: Alyona
Secretary: Valentina
Finances: Inna
Covering: Pastor Ruslan
In an earlier discussion, the problem of translations was debated. Normally translation cost per page is 50+ grivna or $6.25+. My interpreters agree that the master and doctorate materials are not a complete page and agreed to translate material for 25 grivna.
Anya, our new teacher who is responsible for materials will proof read all translated materials. She has a Master of Theology from America. She is a gifted teacher and author. We are blessed to have her in this position. She will meet with all the teachers, train them and observe their teaching methods and skills.
Inna, a Master student and works in a bank, will oversee the ministry account.
Valentina, also a Master student will be our secretary. She will take care of the office work. She will print materials, work with documents and filing. She will report directly to Alyona.
Alyona is our administrator. She will be in charge of everything, she needs our prayers. She is also the person in charge of Royal Rangers in Cherkasy region and is the Children’s minister in our church. She is very busy and we will be looking for someone to replace her, but for now; she has accepted the responsibility.
All of this is such a relief for me. I cannot express my gratitude for this help while I temporarily return to America. There is another administrator meeting August 12th. This will be an informational meeting. Discussion will cover the changes and who is responsible for what. This will provide confidence for the administrators that the ministry will continue in my absence.
I am truly excited about going home and yet I also dread it. It is such a privilege to be able to study the word all day long and research history for materials. I absolutely love my job here. Then the challenge of using Word for complicated charts! God is good all the time.
Please continue to pray for the ministry. I am working on a plan to present to ministries and raise funds for the Ukrainian colleges.
My dream is to have an office that is more than just education. I see a prayer center open twenty-hour hours a day for worship, dance and prayer. This can be a place where we can invite the students for seminars and conferences. My vision goes beyond a one room office.
God be with you always
Num 6:24-26 '"May the LORD bless you and take good care of you. (25) May the LORD smile on you and be gracious to you. (26) May the LORD look on you with favor and give you his peace."
