Eric Fowler update #17

DAY 17 June 3

The Day started well and in the normal way Prayer and time to refuel and then Breakfast.
Our drive Peter came at 10 and also Svtlana our interpreter; she has been working out great. Her
mom has been helping in some of the visit arrangements. She is a social worker and has many
contacts.
Daniel went and helped Vadym move some extra heavy things from his house he is moving out
of for the owner to do repairs for two months.
We went and bought 9 food packages in the morning and got fan for a lady who lives in a very
poor apartment that smells terrible. We are to install fly screens for her as well. One of her
daughters sang for us, what a voice.
We did five new visits today. The first was with two ladies that were nurses by trade and spent
over 30 years working and only get 1200 rhivny or about $150 our money a month.
A great contact they are for sure. One of the ladies is dying with cancer. We want to go back and
she wants us to come back.
Then another visit was with a sister and a brother, the brother is dying with cancer and we
had nice talk to him and he wants us to come back. His unmarried sister takes care of him,
yet in tears he told us he has a son in America but he never hears from him. A SOUL NEAR
ETERNITY WHAT A RESPONSIBILITY TO HAVE. We will value your prayers as we seek
to go back.
Then another visit was with a teacher, she wants to come to meeting on Sunday so great contacts
for sure.
We got fly screens for the apartment where we have the meeting. The flies were coming in and
this meets a great need. We also got two fans for the meeting place to move the air a little when
the people come. Svetlana wanted me to explain the two road chart to her today and Peter wanted
to listen as well. They were both very attentive. I'm praying that Peter will go to Lviv to see
breaking of bread on Sunday.
Thanks to all who pray for
us and for those who take the time to send wee notes of encouragement it means a lot.
Eric with Daniel still....
Daniel will leave on the 7th and I will be alone until the 17.
