Good evening
You will have to forgive me for the delay in getting something on the blog for Malcolm or for ourselves. There was no telephone connection at all from early this morning and it finally only just came back tonight.
We were able to get the name of a lady who attends a clinic for rehabilitation massages where Oleg, Flo's nephew's son worked at one time. He contacted the director of the clinic and told her we were interested in knowing if they knew of anyone who was needing some help. This is how we ended up with Lecia's name and address and phone number. We were able to get in touch with her and told her of our desire to help in whatever way we could. We picked up some groceries to bring along and spent about half an hour with her. She told us that she has been wheelchair bound for three years. The doctors do not seem to know what exactly is her problem but she told us that she just slowly lost the use of her legs. Her left arm and hand are also affected. Lecia is 51 years old. They have 6 children, all grown up with the youngest being 15. There are still 4 living at home. The one thing that struck us as we sat in that apartment is how cold it was. She told us that she doesn't know how she would manage if she didn't know that God is there. Flora spoke to her about God and about Jesus and how He died for us and that we didn't have to do anything to get to heaven. The conversation was short because we had only a bit of time before we had to leave. We do expect to return shortly to see her. She very gladly told us we were welcomed to visit anytime.
Tonight we had a nice turnout at our meeting. There were 5 unsaved people there plus others and the gospel was clearly brought out once again.
We were informed that there are about 40 boxes that will be delivered on Friday!!! Where will Howard & Malcolm sleep????
Tomorrow we are heading out to Truskavets to a school again!
