Last Stop Odessa

Posted on May 31, 2009

Grace, grace marvelous grace…grace, grace, and some more grace, etc. Without God’s grace, and tons of prayer from you, we would not have sustained the level of eneregy, good health conditions, and fresh minds, during the ups and downs of such a Mission Trip. It would take pages to tell you the stories, to share the victories, and even expose a couple of dark moments along the way. But just when we were down,or wondered just why God let the enemy slap us around a little, he sent the sunshine after the storm. And guess what? we had learned to lean harder on Him…and the children were the ones that still got blessed.

We’re here serving in a Society that does not accept organinzed Religion, and offers no such hope to it’s people. One person called it a Religionless Society. Our prayer has never changed, as we have sought to just touch one tender heart at a time, and trust that God will have a plan to us that young soul to reach others…and perhaps someday even change a Nation for Christ.

One more Orphanage to go. We’re gearing up for it to be the best. Sam has held a Football in his messages, this week. Perhaps this is Our last goal-line stance, so to speak. We’ll worship together one last time, this morning (after all it’s Sunday Morning here), then pack out bags and equipment, so that we can began the trip home, early Monday Morning.

Our Mission

HopeHouse International exists so that Orphans in Ukraine can become adopted by Christian couples within their country. Adequate housing is a barrier for most citizens, and it is a government prerequisite for adoption. HopeHouse International enables adoptions by addressing adequate housing needs which result in three or more children being given a family and a future.
