Spring 2011 - Report #10

Saturday April 2
Well Saturday is laundry and clean up day. Dan went swimming with Vadym and family at 7am.
By the time he got home I had done a load of washing and cleaned up. With no dryer, we put our wash on a drying rack and behold, it’s dry in the morning.
Vadym came at 11:30 and we went shopping for some material to get mattress covers mad of “waterproof!” material. After 4 shops we found none but a lady in the last shop will phone her wholesaler on Monday to see if it is available. One of the orphanages and the old folk’s home we visited, have mattresses that need covers. The one orphanage will sew them for themselves and us.
We then went to Vadym’s home to help clean up the back yard. We had a great afternoon with a good fire to burn the branches a dry stuff. Then  Vadym did shishlyk  chicken or shish kabob to us westerners.
We had a good supper and then some serious talks about relationships etc. While we were with them, a neighbour lady came over and told them that the owner of their house that they rent, is coming to visit from America, where he now lives, and will be living in Vadym’s house! Vadym is going to find out on Monday what is going on.
We arrived home late and got ready for Sunday.
Sunday April 3rd
Headed for Lviv at 10 am with a full van of ladies that wanted to go to the Breaking of Bread. One lady and one girl were not in fellowship, the others were.
It was good to see Max Mclean and His wife Ingrid at the meeting. Max had not been to Ukraine for 7 years. He gave a nice word after the meeting. We headed back again over the terribly potholed roads and got back right on 4pm for our meeting in Ivano. About 15 out today but good attention once again.
We took a gentleman who has attended every meeting we have had so far, Vadym’s father in law, with us for supper and had a very good talk with him about salvation. We feel he is very near the door.
Pray for Andre, he would be such an asset to the group of believers here and a joy to The Lord as well.
We have a busy week planned. Please pray for us.
Malcolm and Dan
