A lot has happened that I wanted to update about, but first the pix I promised…
Working on Lesson 13 of the Chronological Bible Course in English
Lunch at the Ministry Center
Yes, that is snow outside 
. We do drink bottled water, as there’s a lot of junk in the tap water. the bread here is more dense then in the states, also there are less preservatives apparently, as it can start molding within a week. Bananas are available, as they are imported. The green bag is crackers.
Tuesday morning I saw the sun out! I believe that was the first time I saw it since I arrived . There were almost no clouds in the sky. It was amazing. Hopefully, the Son is more visible in our lives, then the sun is here in the sky .
I will be starting language lessons next week. I will be taking lessons on M, W, & F from 1730-1900 (9:30a-11a CST). If you think about during those times, please lift me up before the throne. As many of you know, even if you believe in the present day gift of tongues, I do not possess it, or anything even close 
. But, the great news is that God can still perform miracles!
Each Tuesday night we have an English Club/Ukrainian Bible study at the Ministry Center from 1900-2100 (As you can see, I am trying to adapt to the European way of 24 hr time, instead of the American 12 hr way). This would be 11am – 1pm CST on Tuesdays. We are asking people interested to pray for these meetings each Tuesday at 11am CST. If this is something you would be interested in, we would be greatly appreciative. As I am living at the Ministry Center for the next few days, I was the only one there when the first young man showed up. Thankfully English Club is first, so he could speak some English . His name is Bohdan, and it was fun to try to spell his name in Ukrainian, then let him correct my spelling I look forward to being able to communicate more clearly in Ukrainian. Unfortunately, this week, we did have the Ukrainian Bible study as the Steele’s lost power that afternoon, and Josh wasn’t able to get all of the necessary preparations done. (It amazing how much we rely on electricity) So after the English part, we fellowshipped for a while, then the 3 guys that showed up left.
Wednesday afternoon, I went with Josh to the Post Office to mail out a bunch of lessons for the Chronological Bible Course (CBC). Josh explained to me the Ukrainian method of being in line. When you come to a line, the first thing you want to do is find out who is at the end of the ‘line.’ After establishing your position in the ‘line,’ you are then able to do whatever else you need to do (i.e. go to the bank, pick up some groceries, etc.), and you position in line is safe. When you get back, just find the person you’re behind and wait for your turn… In some ways it is nice, but in the other way, if you didn’t know better, you may think there are only 2 people in front of you, but then *boom* 6 other people show up in front of you. It could be almost funny… if you’re not in a hurry
