AIDS Baby 
 
Baby's are rarely born in the Sevastopol hospital for infectious diseases.
This little one is an exception.  Mom is a patient in the AIDS ward.

Greetings!
 
I received a very excited message from Galya last month.  She is the director of Project Sasha and provides a home for three street chidren. She was eager to share the news of her engagement and spring marriage.
 
To be honest, one of my first thoughts was, "How will we operate if she leaves?" She hasn't shared her plans beyond marriage.  Hopefully, she will stay.
 
After a flurry of staff turnover last year, I asked Galya how we would ever replace such key people.  She just smiled and said, "God always supplies."  And, each time we have to replace a key staff member, He does.
 
I still hope Galya stays.  But, I'm learning to trust God's plan and rejoice with Galya.
 
Don't grow weary,
Charles 
Ukraine is on sale
The exchange rate in Ukraine is running about 60% favorable to the rate of just a couple of years ago.  Local prices are skyrocketing.  We keep adding children and services.  Our costs are going up.  But, US dollars are going a lot farther.
 
In case you're the type who just can't pass up a bargain, this is your chance.  Right now, you can make a $100 donation for $60.  (Actually, a $60 donation today will do the work of $100 from 2007.)  If you are really ambitious and always wanted to make a $1,000 gift, you can do that for $600.
 
A new government will be elected in Ukraine this month.  No one is predicting how the economy will react.  This could be a limited time offer.  Please consider making a gift.  Our address is Mulberry International, PO Box 43623, Louisville, KY 40253.
April, 2010 Discover Visit
We are now scheduling the April discovery visit for April 5-14.  That is still subject to some adjustment.  Airfare is a large and volatile part of the trip expense, but the approximate cost is $1600-1800.  This will be a great opportunity to see Mulberry's ministries.
