Wouldn't You Like to Go to Russia Too?

Hi, again. So, now here we are. A month later and not a lot more to tell. We are still raising money. Some are just beginning. I'm further along than I thought I'd be with still some known large donors out there, but I'm still estimating being about $1,000 to $1,500 short of my goal. As for others, as I said one has just begun fundraising. Others are bit concerned.

However, we push on and I think we'll be in good shape. God seems to pull most of these things together. In then end, fourteen of us will be going to Russia on June 5th.

We've now got the Bible lessons completely set. We also have the sports camp going. We'll probably plan a few more life skills activities or sessions.

The beauty is that even if we aren't perfect, the kids won't know and we'll get to know them and bring them a message of hope for their future. We'll bring a message of inspiration and hope along with some ideas of how they can succeed.

I'm getting excited. Continue to pray for us.

We'll try to get team pictures up shortly. Stop by. You never know when or what I'm going to post.
