Sunday and another week starts

Firstly an apology to everyone following the blogs and expecting an update before today.

Things here have been very busy as you may have noticed we don't seem to have had a moment to stop and take stock of what we've done.

Yesterday (Saturday)  we did a half day's work, had a shower and a rest for a couple of hours then went out into downtown Odessa. We went to the open market then walked around and saw the sights, visited some shops and had a typical Ukrainian meal in a restaurant.

Today has been the harvest festival at Grace Church, the morning service was slightly longer at 2½ hours followed by a church lunch outside in the grounds

After lunch we spent some time in the shelter with the children

We then went to an area by a school and apartment blocks where the Church was holding an outreach to the local area, with childrens' games and information for passers by

Time for a rest before bed as our 7am Monday start will soon come round again, we will be continuing with the work, plastering, tiling walls and floors, grouting the tiles, constructing door frames and fitting doors.
