Interesting…

So You Don't Want to Go to Church Anymore?

Found this book on-line last week… Unlike other books, I didn’t have to order it and wait a few weeks before it showed up here in Ukraine. Why? Because it’s a free download.

I liked the book. It makes me think about WHY we do what we do. That’s a good thing!

Also, it is available in Russian (also as a free download) so I could easily share it with friends here.

If you have questions about church, about why we do what we do there, and aren’t afraid to have your thinking challenged, read this book…

Packing Time…

A very long time since I updated this site… Why? Well, to put it simply, we have been busy.

Between trying to do things to help the kids here, trying to help some of our local friends get things up and running so they can start to help, a quick trip to Sweden in February (partly necessitated by new Ukrainian Visa rules),  and our decision to move back to Canada within the next month, it has been a busy time.

Yes, we are heading back to Canada. Fortunately, there are people here now who actually care about these kids in the orphanages, and they are doing a great job. A better job in many ways than we can do… And we know that we need to get back to Canada for the sake of our own kids (although we did seriously consider moving to Finland instead).

I will try to post some photos from the last few months when I get a chance – but realistically that might happen once we’re already back in Canada!
