Hi Again,

Weather in Kiev- Pea Soup

Seems there is more time to write and more to write about than in our recent past. We're enjoying the work here, and not just because the neighbors invite us up to eat stuffed carp. Every day is a challenge-what to do? who to try to meet? what questions need answers? The fun part is being able to take every day as an opportunity to see God do something special.

Right now we're trying to kill two rabbits with one bullet (as the old saying here goes): We need to get visas and establish a basis for ministry. Right now we (ok, Jerry mostly) are thinking that a business platform might be a door to establish numerous contacts with people.
We are in pretty close contact with a lawyer who mainly helps westerners with adoptions in the Ukraine but is also knowledgeable about these types of questions.

We could use your prayers, not that visas are so hard to obtain, but so that we have wisdom in how to proceed and if the whole business-to-ministy approach would be best here.

Thanks
Jerry and Kim

p.s. For those of you looking for a World Cup update: Bode came out of his skis in the Super G and was a no-show in the Downhill at Lake Louise. I might have to send him an email and offer some pointers.
