International Womens Day

Hi Friends,

Tomorrow we celebrate a big holiday here in Russia, Intl. Womens Day. It is kind of like Valentines Day on steroids. Most Russians will not work Monday or Tuesday. This is the one day out of the year where all men are expected to treat women like queens. We have heard that it is very common for men to give flowers to random women on the street. All over the city, little stands have magically appeared to sell the most popular flower of the season, the tulip. Men are expected to buy flowers or chocolate for all the important women in their lives, so I bought flowers for Katrina, our teacher Viola, our nanny Larissa and our good friend Julie.

Fun days here in Moscow! Thanks for checking out our blog.

Urgent Request Update

Hi Friends,

We wanted to let you know that just one day after blogging about our needs, one of those needs has been met! I received an email saying money had been sent to provide for our Siberian survey trip. It is so cool to see how He provides for us.

Would you still keep the other two requests in your thoughts? The visa renewal fees and insurance payment still need to be taken care of.

As always, thanks for reading our blog!

Some urgent requests

Hi Friends!

In the next couple months we have some additional, necessary expenses that are not in our monthly budget. We have been able to save some funds toward these items but as of today we do not have enough. Would you specifically think about these for us? We are so thankful to have friends and family who take an active part in our work here.

Visa renewals – $1500
Survey Trip to Siberia – $1500
Insurance – $1500

Also, because of events outside our control, there is a slight possibility that we may have to leave the country if we do not receive our new visas in time. Please ask that this will not happen! We do not want to have to spend even more money on travel expenses.

Thank you so much for interceding for us! Also if you feel led to help us in a financial way you can email us – worshipingforever@hotmail.com or send a check to
