We did it!

It's Friday night, which means we've officially made it through week one of Summer English Intensive, and it's been great! There have definitely been challenging moments, discouraging moments, and totally crazy moments, but overall I feel really good about the relationships we've started and the quality of instruction we've been giving. Tonight we celebrated with many of the students with a night of water games and a campfire. We introduced our friends to Smores, and they introduced us to some of their traditional Ukrainian folk songs. There have been so many highlights I want to share, but for now I will leave just this brief post to let everyone know we are alive and well! Why such a short post? Because tomorrow we will be taking a boat down to Zaparozhia, which means, we will be waking up at 5 :) More to come soon (hopefully with pictures!) Until then, thank you again for your continued prayers!
