Eric Fowler's #10 report from
Ukraine.
March 27th
The Morning came early, but we had a little read and time together before the Day.
Prov. 3:5-6. a verse I learned early in my Christian life came before me in the past days......
TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL THY HEART ; AND LEAN NOT UNTO THY OWN UNDERSTANDING. in all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy paths.
Loaded the cases and boxes for the Hospital, with 24 bags done up special for mothers that just
had a new baby. This was done by the Ladies in Welland ON. We went to the Hospital and meet the head Dr. and got permission to go see the new born babies and their moms. We brought the special white sheets for the Dr. for the OR unit. He was so happy to get them.
The Head nurse came and got us and we did 22 visits. We had great response. They we all very
happy to receive the gift. One couple wanted to know why we do it. One wanted us to take pictures and bring to them. We brought a children's Bible story books and a New Testament and a text in bag as well.
The nurse was the one that took us around the other two years. She was very very kind and for
very first time served coffee after the visits in her office. We left the suitcase with the nurse as we do every year. We had medicine that we left with her as well as extra baby clothing that we had left over.
We went to bank and changed money but our dollar value is going up every day. today 885R for our $100. Gas prices soaring up and up as well as food prices. Business is getting smaller as things are not getting into the country.
We meet Nicoli at hospital, the man who has been coming to meeting every night since we came. He is connected to the Amish and has good understanding of the scripture. He is to fly to
Russia, Siberia in fact so I got the address for him in Sugut and talked to Victor. He would like to be baptized and seemed to get settled on Salvation from the meetings. Trust he will be a little encouragement to Victor in Sugut when he gets there. Had a nice talk to him three ladies were in the apartment to get clothing.

Our time is going fast here and
we need the locals to come and get clothing.
I had to retire early after
supper as the pace is catching up to me. Missed meeting but nice to have a good
night just to rest. Tomorrow we will go to Lviv to a baptism . Sasha
stayed with us which is nice as I think he is troubled. It would be nice to see
him get saved for sure. Volodia is a good help to him in interpreting and they
are so good working together .
March 28th
Again the Morning came to early. Prepared for the day with a good breakfast again made by my wife. Volodia is enjoying the treatment, he lives alone in Lviv as his mom is away working. Went to Market and got key for Oleg's store house and got New Testaments as we will take some to the Mountains Monday is we go. Got gas along the way. Gas prices going up every day at an extreme rate. Checked tires as one leaking since we got summer tires changed a day or so ago. Picked up pampers and went and visited Natalia. She is a Christian Girl with MS in wheelchair. Had nice visit with her and her mom.

Then went back got things to
leave for LVIV. Picked up Luba along the way so she will go with us. The drive
to Lviv is about 3 hours still as road
is still bad. Got there time to change into
our suits. The baptism went well some came from Lusk assembly. About 24 of us all together.
Olya a young girl got baptized her dad is in the meeting and her mom died two years ago.
We had a meal after the Baptism which was done in a large Baptist church. They have a tank in the building which they rent to us when we want it for a baptism. There were a few there there we would love to see baptized.
The Day is over and we are tired. Value highly your prayers as we know war movements are
on the horizon for sure, when is the question.
