Note: Since Malcolm wrote this report, he missed his plane in Lviv, it left one hour earlier. I have made reservations for him to fly out from Lviv on Thursday Nov 10th arriving in Winnipeg Friday 11th. The lord must have more work for him to do in Ukraine. Jean
Report #9 for Saturday and Sunday Oct 5&6th.
Saturday morning we went to a service centre to get them to see what the klunk was under the vehicle.
They put it on a hoist and found it needs two rubbers on the torsion bar. Thankfully it was not more serious and they can do it on Monday at nine am.
We then did some shopping for a folding bed and found one for just under $100. We intend to stand the King size bed up to the wall and use a folding bed instead. This should give us a lot more room to sort clothes in the bedroom. (don’t worry, we got permission to stand the bed up from the landlady. It should be quite safe. But pray for Howard!).
We then had lunch and headed to the school for the children’s meeting and were glad to have about 15 kids out. They played very well together and were well behaved when Howard spoke to them. They learned a verse and sang a chorus in both English and Ukrainian. Dan was very excited and hopes there will be more next Saturday.
We went home and got ready to take Svetlana our interpreter and her husband Andre and her mother out for supper. We had a good meal of Shish Kabob or Shishleek in Ukrainian. We left the restaurant in a pea soup fog and wondered if it would be clear in the morning.
Sunday came and we headed to Lviv in beautiful sunny weather. This was to be my last meeting and I spoke after the B/B. With many hugs and kisses, we parted with the Ivano folk, Dan and Howard and 6 others.
We went out with Flo and Heather to Nesnevachy, the first village we had meeting in when we came to Ukraine. Stefka, a relative welcomed us heartily as usual. It was in her homes that Ross Vanstone and I had good Gospel meetings when the Seed Sower group came over. The family were there and we had a good country meal together. Stefka is not at all well after having 6 surgeries on her abdomen and she had a large hernia now. She is 82 and won’t go in for any more surgery.
Came back and got ready to leave tomorrow at 1:50pm for Munich and home. Thank you for showing interest in our activities that we trust will bring glory to God in time to come.
God bless and thank you for your prayers. Dan will send reports periodically.
Malcolm
