Dear family and friends,
We arrived safely with all of our bags in Ukraine on Wednesday night and travelled to Hope Center arriving at the camp around 1:00 a.m. Thursday morning. We did not take the train this time as we flew from Kiev to Simferpol which only took 2 hours vs. 13 or so on the train. Of course we still had the van ride but it was good. After unloading the van and getting everyone into their new living quarters (pictures to follow soon) we got to bed around 2:30 a.m. and all slept well and now some are back asleep after lunch for a much needed nap. The weather is absolutely beautiful around 60 and the meals today have been great, soup and potates and a chicken dish for lunch. Our course our wonderful host's are incredible as always and so happy to have us back. You should come as soon as you can and enjoy this wonderful place. The living conditions of the team have changed and also the living quarters for the interns so if you know any who would like to sign up for the summer please have them contact us. We need team members to sign up for camps 1,2,3 and 5. Team 4 has been filled from Immanuel Bible from the D.C. area. They are coming back for their 3rd year of ministry to the children here.
Everyone is doing well and I think after today we will all be back to normal, whatever that means. Today is the National Day of Prayer in U.S. so we ask that you pray for us here in Ukraine and also for a friend of the team members from Minnesota Cindy Koski who is having brain surgery today, we would appreciate your prayers for her, the doctors that they will be able to help her with this condition and also for her husband Sporti who has been to Ukraine with us in the past. Thanks
I will be sending pictures soon so please check back. If you want to leave a comment please Love to all back home.
John for the team and staff

Hi Dad ~ got your text this morning. Glad to know that you all made it safely, with all your bags. Praying for you all today. Love, Court
Good to hear, John! I hope all is going well for the team and the camp. How are the Magee's doing? When I last saw them on Monday Kamilla was trying not to get sick and Thad was a little worried about flying and about his back. I look forward to more updates. God bless.
So glad you guys are there safe and sound. Give those Hunts and BIG hug from Joel, Jenny, Sam and Amelia! You can have Mrs. Crews do it if you want to:)I know you all will make a big difference during your time there. Take care, Jenny
