Good Morning Friends,
We are about to leave Yuri’s for our day of work here on Tuesday. Yesterday we had a long day and accomplished a lot. We completed the floor on the third level and enclosed the walls most of the way around. We all worked hard and had plenty of laughs. It is truly a pleasure to serve God in this capacity. We, the Band of Brothers, presented Sergei with a plaque as a symbol of our love for him and his family, as well as, appreciation for his commitment to Hope House and the children. Sergei is looking forward to the two new additions to his family in the spring as he and his wife are adopting two children. Thank you all for your prayers and replies.

Hi guys, I really wasnt sure if would be updating this or not…with all the phones and blackberrys you all have. Anywho, Rex keep up the good work, keep taking the motrin, and remember we all love and miss you back home but know that what you do over there is such a blessing. Please give Ira and Yuri my love and tell them I will see them soon.
The boys are in bed but I know they would say “love you dad”. So there it is.
Jill, Spencer, and Seth
