Thank you for remembering our family in your prayers.
– Kevin, Lena, Sonia, Maya & Deena
COMING TO CANADA
Now that Canada seems a lot further away than it did a month ago, it's a little harder to get excited about planning! The other day Maya exclaimed, "I'm tired of waiting! Tomorrow I'm going to Canada!". Please remember our need for a home come late autumn!
BLESSINGS
The last time Nina was in the hospital, this happened... We are very thankful that Nina's home has been kept safe from intruders or other problems thus far.
PETITIONS
Please continue to pray for Nina in the hospital. Pray that her health will be restored so that she can return home. Also remember to pray for Lena as she makes the long treks to bring Nina food and supplies.
Be in prayer for the Christian Camp Leaders' Conference to be held in Vladivostok (May 25-31). This is major event for the camps and churches in the Far East of Russia. For too long we have been unable (for financial reasons, mostly) to conduct a training event in this, the neediest of regions in Russia. Please pray for the final organizational details, and especially pray for the safe travel of the participants and instructors across this vast territory.
Sonia completed her first exam (English—her easiest test!) this past Saturday. Please keep praying for her as she prepares for the next four exams.
DID YOU KNOW...
...that the least expensive (non-bulk) toilet paper you can buy in Russia is simply called "54 Metres"? While you can guess how long it is, did you know the price per roll is around 3 rubles (about 15 cents)?
...that the best bargain in "made in Russia" commodities is wood matches? A package of eight boxes goes for a mere 4 rubles!!!
