Team in Ukraine

Several members of the eDOT team left Germany on Sunday for Ukraine where we have a lot of different things happenings. We are asking for anyone willing to pray for them as they have a lot of things packed into a short period of time.

They will first be going to Zaporozhye (which is in the eastern portion of the country) meeting with the new director of the Zaporozhey Bible College & Seminary. This is a school we have been working with for some time creating a distance education program. During this time of meetings they hope to speak with some of the students (both Bible College students and those that came in from one of the outreach computer classes) at the eLCs (eLearning Centers) and learn more about how their lives have been impacted so that we can share that with many of you.

After a few days, they will then travel to Kremenchuk Bible College where similar meetings will happen. Then they will travel to Kiev to meet with our major partner, Bible Mission International, to look at the installation of more eLearning Centers and other projects. They also hope to meet with another partner, ABWE Ukraine, to discuss the Russian translation of a Bible Study Methods course.

Please pray for this team of four. Some of these places will be a little “rough” (they were advised to bring their own toilet paper – seriously). They will also being going through an area that was highly effected by the Chernobyl accident in 1986 which has never fully recovered. Please pray for our team that the Lord will go before them and open the doors He wants them to go through. Also pray that they will sleep well, have plenty of energy and be safe. Pray especially for one of the members as it is her first time in Urkaine and this is to be an especially intense trip.

Thank you.
