Eric's Report #4 Oct 8th-10th.

Wednesday  Nov. 8th.

    Breakfast and waited for Igor before reading, he seems to enjoy the reading together. Do pray for this man, he is truly searching and the enemy is after him as well.

Picked up Luba to go to her mother in law’s village, Starylusett. We visited her Mother-in-Law and she was very sick and still in bed.  Luba stayed with her while we went to the school.  The house was a mess to say the least, no heat and very cold.  It was amazing that as soon as we came she wanted us to read from the Bible with her. I would have confidence she is a saved lady and knows her sins are gone because of the Blood of Christ.
 The school visit went very very well.  We did 3 classes of about 60 children. Grade 3, grade 6, and then grade 11. They were great visits.  We gave calendars, tracts, and other literature, and all were received with thanksgiving.  They all asked when will you come back. We had tea in the teacher’s office and talked to her for a while. Then the teacher who took us to the classes came with us to town to go to the train station to change tickets she had to go to Kiev. 

We came back to the apartment tired and called Leanna and Marina and went for supper.

  Now the day is over and our resting spot feels like home. God is good and trust all who heard the word will search until they find its truth.  The privilege to speak to students in school is one we do not get in our home country.

Thursday Nov. 9th.
      The day's start the same every day ... breakfast and a time to read and pray.    Trust this will speak to Igor's life for good. We went to market after breakfast and paid for the Generator for Peter's village. This is for the school when they lose power in the winter so they can have heat in school and not freeze up the pipes.  We then went and got our laundry from the cleaners and went to market and got a food package for a lady with two children.  We delivered it and she wanted us to read and pray with her.  She just had the second child so can't get out to meeting and said she misses coming. She asked if we could visit her every week to read and pray with her. 

I tried to change money again, but the exchange is down.  I spent some time giving out calendars on the street.

 We took clothing to the blind man's family. Ira and Heather took Dema's mom to another doctor's appointment. We took her home and went to market and bought food for her and her two boys. We then went for a walk in the center.
      Home safe and to rest. Long days and visiting is hard work.

Friday   Nov. 10th.

        We were up early today as we will drive 2 hours to the village where Yaroslav’s wife Halia is living at her mom's old house. Igor came and we had our reading and prayer time, breakfast, and then on the road.
      We picked up Yaroslav at his son’s home and got him. We thought his son and grand- daughter might have been with him, but he came alone.  The drive was not bad, but some rain along the way. In this direction there are some big farms and they are still taking in corn and cabbage.  We bought cabbage for all the ones back in the city that come to meetings and who don’t have gardens of their own. Had nice meal at the old place and a talk with Halia. The dear lady was a power house for God at one time but got tangled in the “Tongues movement” and it has affected her mind.
      Then the drive back to the city and tea and something sweet with Yaroslav’s son and his wife and daughter. They have never come to meeting and it’s sad they have no interest. 

Then we called Luba  “Ponytail Luba” we call her ,who lives near, to come for cabbage.        
Back home and very tired.
