Ukraine! – From Student Missions Blog

IMG_0662 They have arrived!  Our team of 10 has arrived in Lviv.  They had a very smooth trip - everything went well.  As I am typing this they are hanging out at Tomasz and Miriam's home, playing with Hannah and enjoying some of their youth!

The team has done a little bit of sightseeing - unfortunately their internet usage will be very sporadic and there may not be much chance to upload photos or update this blog very often.

Apparently it is fairly hot there - although not as hot as it has been here in MN!  The train ride was good, they had two passport checks. :)  They were very glad they had beds to use on the train!

Jon and Sam were able to visit Pavel in the Children's Hospital.  Pavel is a regular in the Chmiels' updates and one of their dedicated youth.  Please keep him and his kidney issues in your prayers.

The team asks for your prayers as they prepare for the VBS.  They are starting on Monday and seem excited to begin!

Thank you for your prayers and support.
