This past week we learned of the death of another friend from Ukraine. Andreii Shpak was in the army, he leaves behind his wife and two children- his son is in his early twenties and his daughter must be about 16 or so, we met her when she must have been 3 or 4, not long after going to the village. Andreii felt a calling to ministry and did VBS and ran a youth group program in the village that many of our students attended over the years.
Garry had discovered that he was mostly serving as a cook last year, but was training to be a chaplain in the army. Before the war, he was a well known builder of outdoor BBQs of brick, and often worked in Israel.
It is so sad to hear of the many losses of life and horrible injuries to those brave people who choose to defend their homeland over the last two years.
