We arrived in Ukraine at 9:15am local time. We were greeted by the hall family, our friend Katia Voropaieva, Zhenya Rudnitsky, and others. I am amazed at how we can be among friends across the globe. Due to sleep deprivation, I cannot tell you much of what happened up until the point we got to the flat. It is snowing, kids!
When we arrived at the place where we were supposed to stay, we were told that there was a guy who came in and was occupying our space. This is at the top floor of a church, where some friends we made last trip are serving as missionaries. They did not expect the visitor either. On top of that, there is a group of other missionaries on their way to a retreat in Turkey staying in the other room. Sleep Over!!!!!!! We all had pizza, got acquainted, and then guys and girls divided up into respective rooms to sleep. As ticked off as I was in the beginning, I found that these people are really great and we would have otherwise not met. Not much coming from the mystery guest from Latvia, however.
Tomorrow we will venture over to the Plaia's flat. They are here to adopt 2 girls from another region. Since we are practically indigenous to these parts from our last adoption, we will show them the ways of Kiev.
Continue to pray for us. We are excited about what the week ahead holds.
Blessings to All,
Ande

So glad yall are there! I am so excited for yall. Can't wait till yall get to Zap.
The church at M17 prayed for you guys and your children today. Remember that He is with you and your children. This is a great exercise in trusting Him with all you have (including your kids). We are lifting you up daily and praying that He will make your paths straight and smooth, that you and your children will be comforted, that He will work miracles and that He will bring glory to Himself through your journey. We love you,
Gina
