Dear Friends,
This last week began with the bad news that Bohdan was in hospital in Sumy.
He had been speaking in Samotoivka on Sunday, having driven back from a successful Baptist Union event in Kiev on Saturday that was to help refresh leaders. He had suffered with pain in his legs during the drive which became much worse, and was subsequently diagnosed as a blood clot.
The good news is that by the end of the week Bohdan is feeling much better, and was hoping to be released today, Friday.
The team are doing well, although Lyuba has been suffering with a bad cold, and the youth and children's clubs have still be taking place.
As you can see from the photo above, some of the newly made bed linen has been completed, and is beginning to be distributed!
Bohdan had a good time with Pastor Andrew in Samotoivka, despite the dangers in the village. The situation in the region continues to worsen though. People are facing difficult decisions, and many church members and leaders are beginning to leave the area for safer regions in the west of Ukraine.
Many areas have seen all but the elderly flee, and Lebedyn hospital is beginning to fill with young wounded soldiers who, in Bohdan's words, are lying in their beds without hope in their eyes. He is determined to see them reached with the Gospel!
Thank you all for the support you give both financially and prayerfully. The team are so encouraged by knowing that they have people praying for them.
Every blessing
Peter Martin
