A Russian winter 

A cold Russian winter has come
Холодная русская зима пришла
The poor seek comfort around the vodka fires
Бедных искать комфорт вокруг водки пожаров
Sitting with nothing more than an unshaven beard
Просто сидеть с не более чем небритые бороды
The wolves and foxes have come and gone
Волки и лисы приходят и уходят
Leaving us at deaths' door
Оставив нас у дверей смерти 
The winter is bitterly cold
Зимой очень холодно
As our spirits are left behind
Как наши духи остались позади

Let us pray
Помолимс

A Prayer in Times of Despair O Lord, it is so easy to walk with You when things go well and nothing seems wrong. Yet, now I feel as Peter must have felt as he saw You walk towards him on the open sea. He tried to come to You and then lost hope and began to sink. When I am down, come to me as You came to Peter. Help me, even though my faith seems weak.

Молитва во времена отчаяния Господи, это так просто ходить с вами, 
когда дела идут хорошо, и ничто не кажется неправильным. Тем не менее, теперь я чувствую, как Питер должно быть, чувствовал, как он видел, как ты ходить к нему на открытое море. Он пытался прийти к вам, а затем потерял надежду и начал тонуть. Когда я вниз, приходите ко мне, как Вы пришли в Питер. Помогите мне, хотя моя вера кажется 
слабой.

thank you jai

im counting the days til we depart for Nairobi! about two weeks! I am excited, as this will be my first mission trip! I expect to be humbled! we will offer medical attention, optometrist is with us for vision needs, feeding, fellowship, and lots of love! we have a contact there that operates an orphanage as well! so we will offer repairs to the building and equipment!

can you imagine the outcome if people put aside their differences and met the needs of others!

wish you well my friend
