We are now about half way through with our first week of reading session. The people here are very friendly and eager to improve their English. I currently have 13 readers and Nathan has 12. Our two other team members, Erin and Kayleigh are working with 8-10 readers each so far. We have been getting new readers everyday. Most of our readers are students at either the secondary school level or at the Universities in Bila Tserkva and Kiev. We also have several teachers who love talking with Nathan about the different school systems and their students.
Many of our students have disabilities including cerebral palsy, severe type 1 diabetes, haemophilia and strabismus.Many of them are our most enthusiastic readers and often stay after their session is over. One young man, Oleg is so eager to read and learn that he meets with Nathan and myself back to back every day. He knows a lot about the work books from reading with LST in the past and is slowly starting to read the more advanced lessons from our workbook on Acts. He is one of the many young men who meet with our missionary, Kostya. I look forward to reading the more challenging lessons with Oleg. Oleg will be taking us to the famous park here in Bila Tserkva. The Ukrainins are known for being hardworkers. One of my readers, Sasha C. has a strong stutter at times when he speaks English but taught himself how to overcome when he speaks Ukrainian. He is also very eager to read when we meet and I know God has great things ahead for him.
Please continue to pray that our readers come with open hearts and that God will give us the right words to plant seeds through the Word.
