It has really been a mild winter, for which we are by no means complaining. We have had very little snow, and the main branch of the Dnieper river has not been completely frozen at all like it usually is in the dead of winter. Now as to what has been going on here. On the sixth of January Jeremy Northrop and his wife, Shawna, arrived in Kiev for a seven month stay. Jeremy is the son of Chuck and Jody Northrop.
Chuck teaches in our school one month each year.
They are studying some Russian, Jeremy is attending classes of the Bible school three days per week, and they are generally trying to help in whatever they can in the work of the kingdom. Both Jeremy and Shawna are college students and will be receiving some college credits for their work here. Regardless of where you go to teach the gospel, there are unfortunately always those religious teachers who confuse the masses with their man-made teachings. In October we had these printed in the Russian language in the form of a nice looking forty-four page booklet. We are not mass distributing them because of the costs, but are giving them only to those who have manifested a sincere interest in the truth.
