In July Bonnie flew to Kiev and Bruce drove to The Netherlands. Though these two trips were for a relatively short period, a great deal of business was accomplished at each location.

Bruce and Bonnie spent time during June with a church that is approximately 13 years old. The building was originally funded by an American church. Through the years the local Christians have experienced some difficulty in vision, funding and leadership. Understandably there have been some discouraging moments. Now they have a good pastor and leadership team. PIEI (Partners In Evangelism International) asked us to spend time with the people to establish a personal relationship so as to be of benefit as they forged their way ahead. One of the couples on the leadership team is financially helped through PIEI so the project in Malaga becomes part of our responsibility (and privilege and joy!).
