ABC Update











I visited at the Baby Hospital today and saw some beautiful babies! I was also given quite a surprise when the staff told me that someone had donated new windows in three of our rooms for ABC children. A man whose child had been in the hospital until his death of an incurable disease noticed that new windows would be nice and recently came and made the donation. May his tribe increase! Please continue to keep the babies and their care providers in your prayers. Your gifts are making a real difference in the lives of these precious children.

Teen Lock In
















From the moment we arrived back in Ukraine the teens started asking about having a lock-in. Since I had jet lag anyway I decided to go ahead and do it last Friday night. We had a pizza party, devotional, and a lot of play time. As always the kids just loved being together. Enjoy the pictures.

Back In Ukraine











The Payne family spent the past 25 days in the U.S. renewing our visas, visiting with family, producing the Cross Culture annual report, and having a family vacation. We returned to Ukraine Tuesday night September 15. Tonight our church family hosted a meal and surprise welcome home party for us. The teens sang a song they composed in English, presented us with a couple of posters, and started asking about when the next lock-in would begin. We had a delightful time of feasting and fellowship. Enjoy the pictures.
