Dear Friends and ministry partners! We would like to share with you the blessings we had in the month of January. As you probably know Ukraine celebrates Christmas "twice” in December and on January 7^th, so this month we had a big time travelling around Odessa orphanages and some villages to distribute the Christmas gifts YOU helped to gather.

This is Andreevo-Ivanovka orphanage, 180km from Odessa. There are 96 children in the orphanage.

This is the orphanage in Zhovten, 100 km from Odessa. There are 108 children in the orphanage.

This is the orphanage for special need girls. It is 12 km away from Odessa and there are 154 girls.

This is the orphanage in Limanskoye village, 80 km from Odessa and there are 82 children.

This is the orphanage in Nikolayevka, 160 km from Odessa and there are 90 children.

This is the orphanage in Chernoye, 250 km from Odessa and there are 111 children.

These children are from N.Olshanka village. There were about 20 children at the Christmas program. We visit this village from time to time and have built good relationship and do Christian programs.

This is Elizavetovka village. After our first big project there a group of children of about 20 kids come every Saturday for Sunday school. God is moving this village and is building the church starting with children. It is 40 km from Odessa and we visit it every Saturday.

We had a great opportunity to serve a group of special need adults during this month. There was a Christmas program and Christmas lunch for them!

Unfortunately we couldn’t visit the Lost boys in Ananyev orphanage because of measles disease in there this month.

We thank God for every opportunity to serve Him and children and adults we meet on our way. It is such a privilege to be His servant. We praise God for you that you join us in fulfilling the Lord’s commandment, to go and spread the Good News.
