• The Ukrainian elections went well. Now please pray constantly for the new president, Petro Poroshenko, and continue to pray for peace.
• We're getting used to our landlady, and--more importantly--she seems to be getting used to our weirdnesses. You can pray for her health; she keeps scaring us with falls and heart trouble!
• Keep praying for the adoption I mentioned.
• Keep praying for my "counseling ministry." I am in way over my head with the it.
• Praise God for a good end to the school year.

The next two weeks should be quite fun and busy. Right now Will is on his way to the last session of Agape ministry school for this year. We'll need lots of prayer Thursday and Friday, as we travel Papa-less to join him in the western part of the country. Praise God for this opportunity, and please cover us with prayer while we're gone. Thanks!

Jaan just started at music school today. Thank God for His help in that process, and please keep praying that all the teachers Jaan ends up with will be just right for him (and that we might get a place for Raia, too, if that would be good for her).

Pray for our health! Everyone has been sick, and it's still lingering with some of us.

Tomorrow Will is leaving for a week in Kiev at a session of Agape's school for teachers. Please pray for a good trip and good studies for him, and for the rest of us here without him.

School is already going well, but you can always pray for us in that area. Also, our children joined a children's choir at the church we're attending, and they loved their first time with that. In the week ahead we want to work on getting Jaan (and possibly Raia) into music school. Please cover that with prayer. Pray that we would get the very best teachers possible for their own personalities. Jaan's piano teacher is Dneprorudnoe was an incredible answer to prayer. Ask God with us for another like her.

We are still unpacking and settling in. It's very nice to have time to work on that, and it does seem to be going well, even if we're slow at it.

We have not hurried to get started with Agape, although we're looking forward to that sometime soon. Will and Bogdan did go in to the office one day this week, just to sign us up for training in October, and Will will probably start again on some translating for the web site now.

We made it to Kherson! Praise the Lord! Please pray for us as we unpack (slowly) and settle in here. 

We're starting our homeschool year tomorrow. Please cover that with prayer. I'll have three students for the first time ever; you can pray especially for Asya as she starts her formal education.

Praise the Lord for the house He provided for us to live in. It is so incredibly wonderful. Please pray that we would be able to live well with the family in the other half of the house.
