This week's prayer requests

Our container in Kiev is still being held because the port is demanding storage charges. However, we have just learned there is a new law that prevents such charges for containers of humanitarian aid. Svetlana, who is clearing the container for Christian Hope Church is confident we will get the container without additional funds. Please continue to pray to that end.

• Fund-raising efforts are underway for the next container, to be shipped to New Life Drug Rehab Centre, St. Petersburg. Please pray that enough funds are raised that we can ship by the summer. The warehouse is filling up!

• Children's Hope Orphanage, Kiev, is undergoing a major structural re-organization (both physically and administratively), due to government regulations. This is good, but expensive. Please pray for those involved and that funds become available to complete required renovations before fall.
