Last Sunday I got to teach in Sunday School. I taught the
kids a song about God’s promise: the rainbow. Oh and did I mention that I sang
it in Russian? The kids seemed to be very amused at my Russian speaking skills
(or lack thereof). We had two major events in the latter part of the week. On
Thursday we led Emmanuel Church’s youth group; the subject was the value of
life. This was a chance to do our human trafficking presentation one more time.
A fellow team member taught on how much God values us-even more than the lowly
sparrow! I even had the opportunity to tell a testimony on how I learned of how
God values me despite the things that I can’t do and that he created us each so
unique.
Friday we had an evangelism service with the charismatic
church. I had no clue that it was actually at a well-known bar in town until we
arrived. Turns out that God can move through anyone and anything, even if it’s
in a bar.
This weekend we began to have goodbye dinners with our
contacts in Cahul. So far we have said goodbye to our friends at Salvation Army
and Emmanuel church. It was such a nice time being able to say thank you to
these awesome people that we worked with. The nice thing about this town is
that we can most likely count on seeing a number of these people around town.
We tend to meet people everywhere we go that we are already friends with!
These last couple days in Cahul will be a little relaxing
physically but mentally I’m going a little crazy. In a little over a week I
will be back at home in my own room, not living with 4 other girls and not having
to walk across town to have dinner at the boy’s house. It’s a weird thought for
me. There’s going to be substantial changes! Looking forward to the last few
days in Cahul while it lasts!
Keep me in your prayers as I try to keep healthy and pack up
all of my things for heading back to Kyiv.
