In September of this year, God blessed us again to spend fruitful time with the family of John and Marilyn Whittemores, who have been coming to Ukraine for about 20 years in a row, but unfortunately have not been able to be in our country for the past 18 months.

We had a great opportunity to visit many families and orphanages in the Rivne region together. Thank God that He continues to open the doors of these institutions and homes to take the Gospel to the children and show the love of our Savior Jesus Christ!

It is always painful for us to see that there are many children who are left to their own devices and who lack parental love. Praise the Lord that our God is the God of orphans and widows!!! We also thank Jesus for the family of Whittemores, who, despite their advanced age, continue to visit, pray and care for orphans in Ukraine.
