Notes on Missions

It’s is very upsetting to watch the Ukraine roll-back the democratic progress after years of aligning itself with the west. I was a short term missionary to the Ukraine from 1993 – 1999 making twelve trips there. We planted a church in the hometown (Dneprodzerzhinsk) of the former Soviet premier, Leonard Brezhnev. I miss the many friends there.

In 1988 I made a missionary trip to India. While there my translator said that one day he and the other Indian Christians would come to America as missionaries. Wouldn’t he be surprised to know that I am a missionary to my hometown?
