I want to share some pictures of the people that we have met on our journey.
This is Vanya, he met us at the airport, stayed with us and did all of our running around to get our paperwork done. He was always just a phone call away. What a great guy!
Vanya and his sweet Mom, Olga. TOur first night in Gorlovka we had dinner at their house and it was great! They introduced us to Buckwheat and we love it! This picture was taken our last week here when they came over to our apartment and had dinner with us.
This is us with Kostya (our Facilitator, and dossier expert), his wonderful wife Olga and their son Nikita. What can I say about them other than they are awesome. They had us over many times, took us to the market, called to checked on us, and translated for us in church. We had such a great time getting to know them and spending time with them. We hope that they will visit us soon.
This is Ira, Igor and little Erin (their newly adopted baby girl). They came over tonight and we had pizza. They are an amazing family with such big hearts. Erin is a very blessed little girl.
I wish that I had a picture of our driver Atari. We spent a lot of time in his car and we know he can dodge potholes like nobody else! Most of the time I just sat back and closed my eyes.
I feel a special connection with these great people, can’t really explain it just know that it’s there. God’s timing and the plans he has for us are perfect. We could have been anywhere in Ukraine, but our son was in this region and I am so thankful for that. I just wanted you all (and them) to know how much they mean to us!
Good-bye’s are hard for me, so we will leave it with “ see you later” .
Love you all and God Bless!
