Time with the Kids

Posted on April 29, 2008

We made good progrerss on the house today. The interior walls should reach the ceiling tommorrow, much of the sheetrock on the walls and ceiling has been hung and the electric wiring is almost complete. However, the highlight of the day was visiting the children at the orphanage. What a wonderful experience it was to spend time with the reason that we are here. While at the orphanage we found ourselves in a fierce soccer game. The final official score was USA 6
Ukraine youth 28. Mr. Masters was the MVP while Mrs. Masters cheered for us through our defeat. Brian was hit hard with the ball and I am sure he will be sore tommorrow and hoping for a hot bath (with Bubbles). We were so blessed with the time that we spent with the kids. I look forward to tommorow for more great weather, increadible food, and one day closer for Max and his family to move into their new home. Please continue to pray for us throughout the week and and as we return home.
Chad

    I’ll save the sweet stuff for Rex’s personal email. I just wanted to let the team know that I pray for you daily and I was also glad to hear that we still stink as a soccer team. SMILE. Sounds like wonderful progress is being made on the house. Keep up the good work. Rex, I hope you gave all my kids a big hug to last until I get there!!

    Chad B., look forward to hearing all about the trip upon your return. Try to avoid many more 12-hour car rides in the meantime…and hey, if you can sneak home some interesting Ukrainian food, we’ll see if we can find someone to eat it before the next life group meeting.

    Praying for you guys.
