Resting in Hotel Ukraine in Zaporizhzhya
Hi everyone. We are safe in Zaporizhzhya and resting after a full day visiting at Matveevka orphanage. We were able to see so many of the kids we know that have traveled to Alabama. It was great. We gave hugs to all of them from everyone. We will go back tomorrow and visit from 12-5pm, so if anyone wants to call our cell phone to talk to kids, feel free to do so. The number is 011380673921930. You can text us on it too. We have tons of great pictures to post whenever we are able to get to the internet cafe to do so. We know you will enjoy seeing them. PLEASE PRAY FOR OUR FACILITATOR DENIS. Today, he said he felt like he was having a heart attack. He layed down in a room at the orphanage until he felt better - we think it may have been an anxiety attack, but he was worried because his father died of a heart attack. So please pray that God will comfort and calm Denis. He is doing a great job. Also PLEASE PRAY as we continue to put the pieces of the puzzle together on Christina. Please pray that all paperwork on her will be sufficient for us to continue the adoption process. There is nothing in the files on her mother - her father died. Also, PLEASE PRAY FOR CHRISTINA that God will give her comfort. She is scared and we explained that we are scared too. She has anticipated this for so many years...please pray that she will be calmed and comforted and that we can love her with the love of Christ. He has wonderful plans for her life. Ok, we will try to post photos too. Thanks for your prayers. Love, The Gully family

We are in prayer for you all and for Denis'health and mindset during this tough time...it is such a stress on him as well and we pray God's peace upon him. Also, we are praying for Christina and Masha to both be patient and at peace while God completes His plans for them. We pray that you 4 will stay healthy and rested and joyfully give up any thoughts of control or frustration ... :) We love you all and will check the blog at least once a day!!!!! Remember to drink plenty of Zheevcheek (English pronunciation) because it is high in nuclear protectants and down-right yummy!
