I spent the past week at a theological education conference just outside of Kiev. Schools from across the former Soviet Union were represented. It was a great time to fellowship with others who are also working to train Christian leaders.<\/p>\n

Three other people from the Church Ministries Institute came with me. From left to right; Volodya (director of development), John Taylor (President) and Oleg (dean). Please pray that these three men would be used by God as they seek to provide spiritual and theological training for churches across the former Soviet Union.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
