Dobrogo Dnia

Hey everyone,

We are in the ministry of security for all of Ukraine, near the camp where we are staying. As Ivanna seems to always do, she has gone out of her way to arrange for us to be comfortable and have everything we need. She managed to negotiate us in, to be able to access the internet for a little while.

We arrived to the camp, which is a group of small multicolored cabins around a field, near a very clean lake. There are about 40 people total including children and leaders. The children and people that we are here with are incredible, very warm, and caring. It has been rainy and overcast nearly the entire time we have been here, but we hope that it will warm up soon so that we can swim in the lake. Communication between everyone here is very important and everyone is encouraged to share their thoughts and feelings in the morning, at prayer time and in the evening at candle time (which we very much enjoy) Everyone here has gone out of their way to make sure we are included in the communication even though we don't speak Ukrainian. Someone is always translating, and using sign language to help us understand.

That's all for now, but we will update as soon as we can.
