Shown here is one of my first Ukrainian mission students, Ira Konstantinik, with her husband, Jenya. The couple just returned from their ministry in Papua New Guinea, and recently gave a stirring report during a chapel service at Kiev Theological Seminary.

Because career foreign missions work is a relatively new concept in Ukraine,

it was a delight to hear what God is doing through this dedicated couple and to know that training young people for missions is truly a worthy endeavor.  Please pray that Ira and Jenya can return to Papua New Guinea by this summer, where they plan to start a new church planting work in a place where the Gospel has not yet been heard.
