Some images from Ukraine

I am back from Ukraine and I had a blast.  Jesus has taught me some remarkable things and I am ready to share them with you.  I went to Ukraine to record stories of folks and to document the things that God is doing there.  Here are a few of them:

Grigory:  He used to be a very violent man.  He used to chase down and kill wild boars.  The story of how he came to Christ is awesome.  I learned a lot from him and love him like as a brother.

Dmitry: He battled Alcohol and is now living in a rehab center.  

Ivan: He was told that he would be in a wheelchair for the rest of his life.  He spent most of his young life drinking and trying to drown his sadness.  Christ changed his life and he can now walk without his crutches, is married, and has a ministry to physically handicapped folks.

Sergei: He was healed from a disease.  He had sores all over his body that the doctors couldn't cure.  He met a Christian who prayed for him and the sores went away immediately.

First Haircut

My blonde baby is baby no more. He is officially a little boy. Walking, talking and has his first haircut. Check out the before and after. 

Happy Birthday Monkey

The boy had loads of fun at his party. Thanks to everyone who attended. As you can see he particularly enjoyed the cake. Unfortunately he hasn't quite mastered the skill of opening gifts so the older kids decided to help him out. I have no idea who got him what because by the time I got him pried off his new wagon everything was opened. So just thanks in general.
