THE RUSSIAN AUTO

I SPENT THE FIRST PART OF THE DAY AT GAI(STATE PATROL) OFFICE GETTING SOME PAPER WORK DONE FOR COLYA. WHILE I WAS WAITING(WHICH HAPPENS VERY, VERY, VERY OFTEN HERE) I THOUGHT I'D TAKE A PICTURE OF A VERY POPULAR RUSSIAN VEHICLE FOR YOU. THE FAMOUS "OKA". ASK ROBERT ABOUT THIS VEHICLE. HE CAN DESCRIBE IT MUCH BETTER THAN I CAN WRITE ABOUT IT.

SPENT THE REST OF THE DAY GETTING MOM AND THE LITTLE GUYS SETTLED IN AND GATHERING MATERIALS FOR THE MONASTIRSHINA PROJECT.

BY THE WAY, THE LADY IN THE PICTURE WITH US YESTERDAY IS VALENTINA VLADIMEROVNA, THE DIRECTOR OF THE CENTER IN MONASTISCHINA. SUSAN SAID I SHOULD TELL YOU, SINCE SHE WAS IN THE PICTURE AND NOBODY KNEW WHO SHE WAS. MAKES SENSE.

PRAYER

Dear Lord, teach me to be generous. Teach me to serve you as you deserve; to give and not to count the cost; to fight and not to heed the wounds; to toil and not to seek for rest; to labour and not to seek reward, save that of knowing that I do your will.
– Ignatius of Loyola (1491-1556)

WE WANT TO LIVE LIVES OF PRAYER NOT JUST HAVE TIMES OF PRAYER.

LOVE YA'LL. YA'LL LOVE EACH OTHER.
