Last summer we brought in a Short-term team to host a Summer Camp with one of the local congregations in Kiev. This summer we will be doing the same. This church, Grace Evangelical, is a very special church...they are self-supported. On rare occasions, they have had internationals help them with special projects like the Christmas presents for children of prisoners and the summer camp we help with that I have written you about.
Last summer they had a visitor who was interested in helping in some way. They committed to helping the church with a very important program, namely providing desperately needed vitamins for their Sunday School Children, which number 185, during the winter when so many of the children get sick. This benefactor promised to mail Vitamins to the Church and was in contact with the Sunday School Director, Alona, until about 6 weeks ago, when they abruptly severed all communication. As you may have surmised, no vitamins are on their way.
The Project is going to cost $400. Natasha and I prayed about it and we are moving in faith. We have advanced the money to the Church to buy the Vitamins as they are behind schedule in giving the kids their vitamins. As you may or may not know, it has been one of the coldest Ukrainian Winters in recent history with record lows.
We are asking you to help us with this special project. Help us raise this $400. I am especially asking those of you who aren't regular supporters.
