Natasha received a special treat today. Around noon (EST), some of our friends from Russia called to talk to Natasha. In particular, Anya (pronounced Ahn - yuh), Natasha's friend from Russia called to speak for a while. This was a special treat - Natasha's face lit up and she was very touched by their thoughtfulness. Thank you Vlad, Pastor Anatoly, Dema, Anya, and anyone else involved to make this happen. We appreciate your friendship, sacrifice, and especially your prayers. We love you all!

Maybe only in heaven will we gain a better understanding of how our prayers went around the world and moved the hand of God. Brothers and Sisters, we have a lot of work to do! Now is no time to be satisfied with life. Let's press onward and upward!
