Food and fellowship in Odessa

We enjoyed sharing a meal in the Maliakoff home in Odessa. Adam had great time with Mark and Andrew (Ukrainians) and Jon (MK)! It was a time for getting to know Pastor Branislav and his wife, Dena (parents of Mark and Andrew). Pastor Branislav is the Senior Pastor of the Odessa Oblast (a cross between our SBC .....Director of Missions and Executive Director). We will work closely with him when we make the move to Odessa. They are precious people who were gracious with us as we tried to speak Russian with them :) Picture 1 -Pastor Branislav and Dena, Picture 2 - Adam and friends Picture 3 - Rhonda and Luben: Strategy Coordinator for Odessa
