We had a great day yesterday in Poltava. We started off at Calvary Chapel of Poltava. It was good to fellowship with the people of that church. At the end of the service Eric called us forward to pray for us as we go through the adoption process. We had lunch at Eric and Tanya's. The borscht was very good, and the special garlic bread. I can't remember what it was called. We also had cake for Father's Day for Eric and for the father to be, Darwin. It was fun being with Eric and Tanya and their kids.
Today we took a bus back to Kiev. The trip was over 5 hours and there was no AC on the bus. It has been quite hot here. The bus had only one small open window and a vent on the top of the bus. I was ready for a shower when we got to our facilitator's apartment!
We have an appointment at the Adoption Center at 2 pm tomorrow. We hope to get a referral for another girl and then travel to her orphanage on Thursday. We will keep you posted!
One of my favorite things about Ukraine when we were here 2 years ago, was the fields of sunflowers. Today I saw 3 sunflowers. They are coming! I hope wherever we go next will have sunflower fields. :-)
I love the picture of the children with Darwin. He looks good with 4 children. Maybe you'll come home with 4 maybe? Of course your friends won't give up theirs, but there may just be 4 waiting for you tomorrow. Ok don't have a heart attack. :) I will be praying!
