PRAISE GOD! With the gift given by the Women's Ministry of EvFree from Baskets to Blessings, the startup funds for the Moscow Family Center have been raised! This is a huge blessing! Thank you so much to all who donated to the Center through all the various ways support was raised!

Ongoing support will be needed once the center is open, and can be given through East/West International Ministries. www.eastwest.org

PLEASE PRAY now for the steering committee as they are interviewing possible directors. The director of the center is a key position, as she will set the mood and direction of the center. Finding the right person takes wisdom as well as clear guidance from the Lord, please pray regarding this issue.

Following the Russian Christmas holidays, planning for a WOMAN'S LUNCHEON to be held in Moscow will begin. Women from churches all over the city will be invited, the mission of the center will be presented, as well as asking for volunteers. Hopefully, shortly after this luncheon, we will be able to hold our first volunteer training (depending on the status of the director search). Please pray for all the details of the luncheon to fall into place, and that God will direct the women of His choosing to attend.
