Eric Fowler's first report for his present visit to Ukraine.

  

   May 8th.2016....

                    I was very tired after Sunday after traveling here.  My Heart gave me little warnings and so we decided to rest a small bit after meetings over Sunday and also Monday morning.

Monday evening Vladimir came, the young Man who has been our interpreter for some years and we went to his mom's village and visited his aunt  and her two daughters and his grandmother. We truly had a nice visit and tea with them.

The day was sunny and warm and so went for a walk after returning to apartment.     We then went and had supper with Edmund and Agnes and had a nice visit and went over the work her in Ukraine and it great need and difficulties.

   Rest and sleep in the night was ok.

May 10th.
Breakfast came early and repacked to travel to Ivano Frankisk. Dan  from
Ivano Frankisk came and Dema came with him.  Dema is 20 years old who got save last year in July. We came to know his family in 2006. He has a sister Tanya and 3 other brothers,.Lubchick, Reamon and Slavic; Two  brothers  older then him and one younger.
 We need to pray for Dema as he is going to a school camp for 3 months that God will preserve him.  He was chosen from the university to go to this camp.

 We had a nice to Ivano,a very beautiful day.  We got here in time for dinner and a wee rest before evening meeting. We had 25 in, even though it is in the midst of planting.    A few new ones came and the faithful others. We went for tea with Leanna and her 
            daughter after meeting. Leanna has been coming some in the last few years but has been very slow in trusting us as she has had very many friends betray her.

Nice to be in the Ivano once again and at the apartment here. Lots and boxes from Ottawa, Nova Scotia, PEI, N fld. and Ontario.  

Our God is good and lots of work to do. Sleep was good for sure .

 May 11th.
I did not get up Early as still very tired and just little concerned about my heart blockages. Read and morning preparing and then at 10:30 went to meet Lessia, one of the poorest that comes to meeting, we took her to get groceries. We did as we always do, we allow here to pick up what she wants. We also picked up at same time some for an old lady Halia by name who we believe is saved about two years ago and has had a number of strokes and now can't get out to meeting.She is funny and assures us she pray's for us all the time.  

 We then went to Dema's mom's home and met two of his brothers and had tea. Then went to his grandmothers and again had tea. It was her 72nd. birthday and she was very happy to see us. Dema's other brother lives with his grandmother.
His Grandfather died a year ago.  Pray specialy for that family. In my heart I see great potential for God to work there. Dema has a beautiful way about him Their father left them when very very young.

 We then cam back to the apartment and had some come in to discuss question they have It went very very well. There were six of them and 3 children and  one couple.

 God is a God of delivery. Now tired again and will seek to sleep.
                      GO YE IN TO ALL THE WORLD AND PREACH THE GOSPEL .....Quite a commission .....
