I’m back…

October18

Actually, I’ve been back. I have much to catch you up on. Right now I will start with the conference in Kiev.

It was an honor to hear from Loren Cunningham and his wife Darlene and to celebrate 50 years of YWAM!! I had actually just finished his book Is That Really You God? a week earlier so I knew a little more about how YWAM started. He gave a little history on YWAM, where YWAM is now and where they want to go in the future. Lots of vision and wisdom!

Our team was not the only team there of course. There were teams from Georgia, Armenia, Russia and naturally, Ukraine. Many people came just to hear from Loren but others came to reunite with old friends. We had a great time learning about the different cultures represented with in Eastern Europe. I discovered Armenians love to dance and Georgia is a very beautiful country. Russians and Ukrainians have a humor all their own. It was a great time of coming together.

We stayed at a retreat center which is a called a sanatorium here. I got a little worried the first time I heard that, but was relieved to find out we would be the only ones on the compound. It is a very old retreat center built in the 70s’ during the Communist era. Let me just say that I am quite positive nothing has changed since then. Same furniture, same appliances… it was old and very communist-like. I have to confess, I was excited to leave my squeaky bed when Saturday came.

I am going to leave you with a photo of everyone at the conference with Loren and Darlene Cunningham. Can you find me? I know, I just asked the impossible.

I will update you on the rest of my busy life soon!

(I know the picture is small, it was either a fuzzy picture or an enormous picture. Sorry!)
