The Bruce family is heading back to Ukraine this Wednesday, 31 March. We will be going over with a missions team sponsored by the non-profit group organization that Gary and Beverly helped found, Heart for Orphans. Beverly, Gary, Erin and Abby will head to Washington Dulles on Wednesday to start the long flight over to Kiev via Germany and will come back home on 11 April.
While we are over there, we will be visiting the three orphan transitions homes that we have sponsored/established in Kearson and Berdyansk. We will meet with the teenagers and their house parents that have been living there for the past year. We'll be doing all sorts of work including painting and general repairs but will also enjoy time to get to know the kids.
While there, Erin will experience many different and sometimes difficult feelings as she returns for the first time in over 3 years. We ask for your thoughts and prayer for God's leading in her life and help in healing the many hurts she has had during her young life.
We will try to keep this blog up to date but you can also follow our journey via our organizationas blog site at:
