“Monday, June 18 Public school near Grodno:

Nancy C.’ small group had 40 children, ages 8-13. The children received CarePacks that were inside wonderful full-size backpacks. Inside each Care Pack there was a letter from American family that sent the CarePack to this particular student. It was a very pleasant surprise when one of the letters in a Care Pack was from Donna and Jim O. of Danville, PA! Both of them are on this trip to Belarus and were in that classroom when the letter was opened! They had their picture taken with the young lady who received their letter!

Afterwards, in that same classroom, four of the teachers came to Nancy C. and Barbara M. with a question. “While you were talking with our children and sharing with them, we noticed a special light in your eyes and on your face as well. What is it?” Barbara answered that it is God. And you can have the same light too”. Copies of More than a carpenter by Josh McDowell were left at the school for staff. It’s our prayer that the teachers will read them and gain an understanding of the gift of salvation.”
