Greetings!
 
Happy Easter.
 
This year Easter will be observed on April fourth by both the western church and the Orthodox Church.  This isn't exactly rare, but it doesn't always happen.
 
Next week, a team of three will leave for a visit to Ukraine.  There are several opportunities to be discussed on this visit.  Your prayers are appreciated.
 
I expect to have better internet access on this visit and plan to post trip reports when possible.
 
Don't grow weary.

Easter Greeting from Ukraine

Greetings to you for the Resurection of Christ! The Lord our King is the winner!!! We are glad that this year this celebration is the same day for all believers.

Please, greet with our Christian greeting all of our friends and all those who participate in the ministry for Crimea.

Respectfully. Konstantin.

An Easter Feast

This is a typical Easter celebration for one of Mulberry's foster families.  There is a feast with lots of sweets for everyone.  You can see the excitement in the faces.  And this is before the sugar kicks in.  (Yes, the bows are part of the tradition, too.)

 
 
Goryainov Easter
Summer Camp Opportunity
The staff in Ukraine is alredy hard at work planning for summer camps.  For the third consecutive year, they have been invited to be counselors at a state-run camp for at-risk children.  For two two-week camps, the government actually pays them to present Christ-centered activities and lessons!
 
We would like to bring more chldren from our own programs to the camps.  The fee is $315.  If you would lke to sponsor a child at Christian Camp, just send a check to the address at the bottom of this letter.  Be sure to indicate "summer camp" on your check.  The money will be used for camp fees or follow-up activities after the camps.
