Kherson Conference Starts Tomorrow!

Kiev Conference Very Culturally Revealing!

The conference in Kiev was a wonderful time of sharing the gospel and learning about the teaching climate in Ukraine. We always say that you go on a mission trip to minister to others and end up being ministered to yourself. It has been very moving for Pat and Joy to get to hear about Ukrainian teachers' experiences and lack of principal support, and parental support. Ukrainian teachers are basically left to fend for themselves with no one to trust and no support system.

Both Pat & Joy shared their lectures and gave four Master Classes with smaller groups of teachers. This gave them a very intimate setting to answer teachers' questions and give them some more specific tools to use in teaching Christian Morals and Ethics in their classrooms. God abundantly blessed this time with a spirit of openness in sharing experiences from both sides of the ocean.

Everyone who attended the conference received a certificate of completion at the end. We praise God that 80-90% of the teachers who went through the CME curriculum after the March conferences saw a drastic improvement in their students’ relationship with each other and with their families.

Please pray for the teachers that attended our Kiev Conference as they return to their classrooms next week and have the opportunity to put some of these tools in practice. Pray that they would speak boldly, create a trusting and loving environment for their students and be able to support each other in this venture.

Kherson Conference Starts Tomorrow!

Please pray for us Tomorrow & Friday, as Pat and Joy speak at our second Christian Morals & Ethics Conference in Kherson, Ukraine. We had a great and safe experience on the night train down here from Kiev!

Thank you so much for your ministry of prayer!

In Christ's love,
