Heading East

I'm leaving in about 30 minutes to take the train 16 hrs. east to spend a week in Krasnoarmeysk with friends and former interns, Vika and Marina. After that I'll take the train a few more hours south to Dneprorudni to spend another few days with my brother, Will, and his family. Internet connection is probably going to be fairly spotty for the first week, so I'll most likely check in again once I've reached Will and Phyllis. Please pray for my brain to handle the large amount of Russian that it will take in over the next two weeks, for fruitful ministry, for refreshment through encouragement and for great times of fellowship.
