one month to go! a few prayer requests...

I can't really believe that in 4 weeks we will be on the ground in Ukraine for our church team trip.  Financially we are doing great so far!  We have a little over half of our funds for airfare, and are anticipating being able to save most of what we need for the tickets, and are trusting God for the rest. We would love to have some extra to sow into the church in Ukraine too.  Please pray for us as we prepare to go!  Our expectations are high, and the enemy will try to knock us down in these next few weeks i am sure.  Pray for our funds to be covered, either by our income or otherwise.  Please pray for provision for our family as we will be gone for 2 weeks without pay.  Pray for some income we're waiting for by mail to come in time to pay for the tickets!  God is so good and i am amazed that we have been able to save most of what we need.  I am so thankful for my babysitting job and my 12 piano students..God's provision through this work is awesome. 
Please pray too for our time over there, for the church in Krasni Mak, for our team's unity, for safe travels and smooth flights.  We are flying from different places, connecting in different places, and are meeting in Kiev to fly to Simferopol together. 
We have a great opportunity to serve the church in Ukraine, to bless our friends there, and to begin a relationship with this church plant.  Please pray that we would be sensitive to their needs, attentive to Holy Spirit's leading, and willing to serve in any way. 
Gabe and I are excited to be meeting with a pastor in Kiev at the end of our trip, to meet him and his family, see his church and it's needs, and see if we could be helpful in working with him in the future.  We are also excited to meet with the NLI staff in the UK! Please pray that all of our meetings go well, and that God will begin to knit together close relationships that will carry us into our future in Ukraine as a family.
Trusting Him, FULLY CONVINCED,
One day at a time!!
Thank you for your prayers, i'll keep you posted!
Darcie.
