Everyone is well and having a GREAT time!

Thanks for prayers - das vi danya - Carolyn and team.

Getting ready to go to Ukraine!

We are one day away from hitting the road - and sky - as we take 15 students to Ukraine to serve at summer camp for 80 orphans in the southern part of the country!

For some of the student, mostly college age this is their first time out of the country and for most all of our team their first opportunity working with "street kids" - kids abandoned, formerly addicted and abused. We are privileged to have an entire week at camp to play, love and no doubt learn from these wonderful kids.

Most importantly we are the hands and feet of Christ bringing His love, grace and compassion to those desperately in need.

We're serving alongside an amazing church staff from Eastern Ukraine who have become dear partners and friends over the years.

Stay tuned for more travel updates from across Ukraine!
