Eric
Fowler’s report #11
:
March 29th
As we wrote in our last blog,
we are still in Lviv for weekend. Luba and Volodia both came with us to see the
baptism.
My wife and I stayed in the Flo’s apartment, Luba is with us too.
Nadia bought manna for us for breakfast. Then we read the Proverb for the day. This is what I've been telling the Saints to do, to read the Proverb for each day. Many of them do it faithfully. I also told them to read a psalm a day for it will cover months of great reading. Proverbs teach us how to live and treat people and Psalm teach us about how to trust and draw near to God.
Then Edmond came with the man who owns the apartment and we paid the rent for 6 months. The guy is a rich dentist, but not very nice. It's a nice big apartment for clothing and for us Foreigners to stay in when a number of us come, but some feel we are paying to much.

Nadia and her family stay here all the time,
which is a good place for them. If they didn't stay here they would have
to stay with her mom and grandmother in their small place. I 'm happy
they are secure for another 6 months. The crises of the country is enough
for them to handle right now. The Lord is Good for
sure.
We went and changed money and got 9.75R the best ever. Good for us but prices for everything is soaring through the roof. We then bought food for a family of 7 and went and visited Andri. He has 5 children, his wife left him with all the children when the youngest was a baby. His brother lives with them too. Had nice time there, they come to the meetings very often. None of them saved as yet. I read from Joshua and spoke of making the right choices.
We then went to the street and gave out tracts and calendars for two hours. We had very nice time. The first contacts that were given a calendar were a young couple from Southern Ukraine . and were Christians visiting for two days in Lviv. Left them with some extra literature. Nice way to start. Then met three teen girls who could talk some English, so we took them to Mac'Donalds for French fries and snacks. They asked many questions and we had a nice time with them

Then went home to a much needed
rest and sleep before tomorrow’s line of labours. Had a visit with Nadia and
her son. The time just changed here this weekend so not much help with
sleeping.
