Day 2 - Kiev


Staying with Nick & Maia Mikhaluk, co-founders of IP, and their kids - 11 year old Sasha and six year old Danny.

Woke early, walked Sasha to school, saw all the hustle & bustle of families in the morning.

Met with the Kyiv team - Peter & Dina Shulyagin. Peter was former Soviet Army officer, responsible for political indoctrination. Learned about their family, their testimony, their ministry, their challenges, and what to pray for.

Brief tour of Kyiv, a local Ukrainian lunch, then pizza dinner with Nick & Maia.

From 7-10 PM taught advanced English & Bible discussion. Covered 4 principles:
1. God created us and loves us
2. We are all sinners
3. Jesus paid the price for our sins
4. We have to make a choice to believe or not

The discussion centered on what does each principle mean, what do we think, and how does that affect us. Participants asked great questions, which gave us wonderful opportunities to share the gospel with the participants.

We went to bed tired but happy.
