Life was very hard for the two Kratkii brothers.  The boy's fathers are unknown, for they were the result of their mother's lifestyle.  She lived in a smoke filled, dirty hovel with her constant companion, the bottle.

Last summer I spent a week at Kompas Park at a children's summer camp.  I'd like to share with you three instances which shaped my memories and challenged my expectations.

You have no doubt seen the news that Viktor Yanukovych was victorious over Yulia Tymoshenko in the Ukrainian presidential election in Feb.  The former president, Viktor Yushchenko was battered in the first round with only 5% of the popular vote.

You made a difference! It was summer of 1994, and I had just completed my first year of studies at Bath University.  I forget what I studied.  And that was the problem.

Greetings to you dear brothers and sisters, and peace be to you.
God has blessed me with a ministry in a Christian church called "Calvary". I am an administrator of the church. As a part of my job, I often visit city administrators, governor's committees and meet with secular people.
