Well, this is it, my last day in Poltava. I can't believe my time here is over! I have really enjoyed being here. But as my Grandfather keeps telling me this chapter of my life is over. Not that I am happy about that. The youth put on a really nice going  away party for us this evening and many are planning to come and see us off in the morning. It will be very hard to leave them! It will be very hard to leave Erin!!! The three of have always been together these past months, what will I do with the other parts of me? Erin has threatened many times to steal our passports or unpack all of our suitcases, she will miss us too. Although I am through here, I will continue to pray for all the students we formed relationships with. In my mind I am only leaving Poltava for a vacation, it is hard to accept that I will not be living here anymore. Hannah and I leave for Kiev in the morning at 7:40 on the express train. Then Hannah, Joanna, Josh and I will be flying to Prague Saturday afternoon. Then we have meeting in Prague for the next couple of days and then fly home Wednesday. So this will most likely be my last post since I am not sure if I will have internet. Thank you so much for keeping up with me (or at least trying due to my lack of post in the recent past). But mostly that you for all the prayers and support that you have given me. Please continue to pray for the people of Poltava and of Ukraine. до свидания - Goodbye, pronounced Da-svi-da-niya.
