Mission Experiences

Second Mission
We will be serving in the Seoul South Korea mission for two years. We will be posting our experiences below.

First Mission
Hello to all our family and friends visiting this Blog. We are excited about our mission to Kharkov Ukraine. We are in the Donetsk Mission as Humanitarian/Welfare missionaries. Half of our time will be spent helping members with employment. We are also taking Russian lessons from a little Ukrainian girl twice a week. Our brains seem to be a bit scrambled but we are enjoying the process. Keep tuned in and we will keep you updated on what's happening. We are loving it here in Ukraine and we love the people. What a great experience.

This is what we went to L'Viv for. This is our Career Workshop Class and these people were very bright and followed very well what we were saying and were very appreciative of us coming to teach them. We have taught a total of 161 people in employment workshops this month.
This is our first picture as we entered L'Viv. It is a nice looking water tower. As you can see by the sky, it is still cold there. It was in the 30's most of the time.
This is a typical grave yard. The picture is clowdy as it is taken through a window on the train.
Guess who is watching the world go by as we traveled 19 hours on the train to L'Viv. The room we stayed in is to our back. This was one of the more comfortable trains.
Many of the churches in the smaller villiages are painted blue and we don't know why. Just an attractive color I guess. All villages have a church like this whether the village is big or small.
