Eric Fowler update #20


Day 20 June 6th
Hello from the sunny Ukraine.
Prayer, Read and breakfast. This AM just tea as our driver came early.
We removed all the back seats out of the van as we will take a load of goods to a men’s home     2 hours away. We were there before and last year bought a hot water tank for them.
We took 2 wheelchairs and 8 walkers, 3 boxes of pampers, one box of clothing for men plus some clothing in bags. Then some needles someone gave me for the nurse there. We also took text and tracts, blankets and some sheets for beds. 
Just before going had visit from lady and then knew why we didn't have rest about taking the 3 wheelchairs; will tell you later of this.
We had good visit at the men’s home for sure. The director took us all through the place again.
They need a big wheelchair, and multi Vitamins and also some other medicine.
They also need pots  with handles on them. They have to carry the food to the men. The food
is made in one building and men are in the other building with little space to eat. A lot of work.
Then the director took us out for dinner.  He is very nice.  He took us into town to a canteen.   The food was very nice; I wanted to pay but he paid for all five of us.
Then I went on the street and gave out 100 NT and 60 or more children books and magnets, and he looked on and enjoyed it much as I worked the street. Daniel talked to him and our driver and interpreter while I worked. He asked for children books for all his workers, as some of them have children. He wanted NT for all workers.
Then we came back to Ivano and had a visit with one un-married lady who lives alone.  She comes to meeting all the time. Her name in Ola. We had a time explaining the Gospel to her and answered her many questions, but many questions were very nice ones. Like will our body rise
from the Grave again?  How will is rise?  Then w came back home.
O yes the lady we met before going away this morning  told us she needed a wheelchair for a friend and she wanted some help for her 16 year old daughter who was bed-ridden . So we visit her tomorrow with some help.
Lots and lots to do.
Thanks for your prayers, Heaven will tell the good done down here for others.
Remember the way to spell JOY is, the “O’ for others must be between the J and the Y.
You must be last. There is no joy in spelling it YOJ or OJY. Remember JOY Jesus must be first.

                                         Eric with Daniel for one more full day.
