Prayer partners--We have successfully survived the first 3 and a half weeks in Siberia. The cold has been quite an adjustment, but not a bad experience by any stretch. We are starting to figure out other places to eat besides Carl's Jr and KFC, which has improved our quality of life immensely. Sometimes our Russian is understandable, but other times the cashier will run to the back and find someone who speaks a few English words! Alas, we know how far we still have to go in language learning when I (David) tried to buy sour cream and came home with cream cheese (at least I got the cream right)!!! All kidding aside, we have started to build some relationships with people in our ESL classes, so hopefully even as we are learning Russian we can begin to share the gospel (at least in English at first). Thank you for your prayers and look for more to come soon!
