Today is Sunday, August 31st and we are just shy of two weeks before our trip. We are beginning to get excited about going back to Donetsk and seeing our brothers and sisters that we met 3 years ago. Madison has supported the work in Donetsk for several years now and the Lord has supplied us wonderful Christian brothers and sisters to work with.
Three years ago, Eric Bright, Gregory Huffine, and Bryan Moore went along with Doug Reeves to Donetsk on a visit to meet our missionaries that we support and witness the good work that is going on for the Lord there. We decided that the next time we would really do more physical work because there are so many needs that we knew we would love to be part of.
This visit we will be constructing a playground and fence at one of the local orphanages that the school in Donetsk supports as well as putting in new flooring and furniture in some rooms at one of the local hospitals. We've got a lot of work to do in just a short amount of time. I will be posting up until we leave on some of the history of the work there and how it is set up because it is really a neat way of reaching the lost.
We are so thankful for the support that so many people have given us, both financially and through your continued prayers. We are excited about fulfilling God's mission in this trip and are so thankful of the support that we have gotten and will continue to receive.
Continue to check the site during the week that we will be gone, September 13th thru September 20th. We will hopefully be able to keep everyone abreast of what we have done each day and pictures of our progress.
More later!
