Our 2008 English Teaching Team

We had a large team this year, 17 in all! Such a big team allowed us to expand our ministry much more than previous trips. In addition to our standard classes at the Central Church, four of our teamates were professors from Southwest Baptist University gave lectures at Tomsk State University. As mentioned below, four of us got to teach in the village and orphanage and for the first time we were able to teach classes in the second church, Emmanuel Baptist Church, aswell. I hope you enjoy the pictures and stories posted below (if you are new to blog websites, please note that the most recent posts show up at the top. To read our story from the beginning, sroll to the bottom and click on "Older posts" and you will find our first 2008 posts or you can click on "Back in Russia" in the menu on the right and read the entries one at a time.) There is so much more to tell but hopefully this gives you a glimpse into the ministry and witness we went to perform.
