Our seminar started last night at Pastor Edik's church. As is common many times in the city, the seminar was attended mostly by women. Pastor was very cute as he tried to make excuses for the lack of attendance from the men. We told him we understood and that we knew that God would speak to those present. The meeting went very well and PW taught on the Purpose of Marriage.
Today, Thursday, we had lunch with Edik and Elizabeth and he told us that he had been on the phone all day calling his congregation and he told them that we had paid alot of money to come to minister to them and he was embarrassed by the lack of interest in improving their marriages. But we know that God will draw those who need to be there and we are fine whether there are many or few. Please pray for us and for those who come tonight.
There are 20 registered for the Divorce Recover seminar beginning on Monday, some from as far away as Donetsk which is 36 hours travel. We feel extremely responsible to feed them from the word so that they go home on the road to healing. Each one coming is doing so because of a deep need. Please pray specifically that we would be vessels God uses to touch their lives and that it is worth the time and expense for each one.
Thank you. We miss you all. Love, PW and Sherry

Hi, guys. It's good to read your posts. I'm thankful your travel was safe and uneventful.
My heart is heavy to think about the deep need in these brothers and sisters in Christ as well as the great distances some of them are traveling. I know this is the Holy Spirit drawing me to prayer for these precious people and for you both.
Love,
Lisa
