Its so long time since we've talked to you last time, I guess you keep coming here with the hope to see some new stories from us... Well, here we go, there are alot of news that are going through my mind at the moment, just need to choose the major ones.

First of all - we are expecting baby, our new family member is going to be born somewhere in October. Irina is doing well, but according to Russian health-care tradition, she's visiting doctors every week, sometimes even more often.

Second - we are out of Africa now, yes we are back in Russia, in my home town. It's already month since we came back here and we are still traveling visiting all our friends and relatives around. It's more difficult for us to stay in one place rather than travel around. And we are missing Africa a lot, but its spring time here and everything is so beautiful!

Third - we are not missionaries anymore and it can be frustrating sometimes. Almost nine years I was in missions and I knew what is my purpose and what I'm doing. Now... I have to look for job to support my family, I have to think about place to stay, and not just for a while but for a long time - preferably something of my own. We have to think about money which is I would say - weird. Please pray for our establishment here.

Those are major news. I have to spend hours describing the rest of our time but I wont do so.

There are few job opportunities that I have at the moment, all of them are computer-related, and I really have to pray for the one that God wants me to take, but I believe I will know quite soon which one it is. I ask you to pray for it with me.
