Stephan's Supervisor with package
Jeff, Max, and Ruslan
We attended church today. There was probably 60-70 people there. The people are very nice and we enjoyed conversations with several of the branch members again. We brought the missionaries some of our food we haven't been able to use such as cake mix, complete with frosting, brownies, blueberry muffins, microwave popcorn, stuffing, gravy and Evenson's cheese and crackers and jam. You would have thought it was christmas the way those boys eyed their new stash. We told them we would take them to dinner sometime this week.
Today we were able to take Max and Ruslan for the afternoon and evening. Ruslan asked if we could get Max today as well. It was nice to have the boys together and they really lightened up and had a good time. When we returned the boys to the orphanage, Stephan Fuhrman's supervisor stopped us and asked if we would give him a package from his old class. There was a picture of Stephan when he was young incorporated into a drawing, some Poltava chocolate (hope that makes it back to America), and some post cards with messages from former classmates. Stephan, we will make sure you get this when we get home. We snapped a picture of his old supervisor and headed home for the night.

Those lucky duck missionaries. They must have felt like they were in heaven. -Cort
My mission call did not get read on Friday because of Thanksgiving, but there is still a chance it will be read on Monday. So it will most likely come the 10th. -Tanner
I love you! -Janelle
Cute pictures! Is Ruslan staying with you yet?
Jeff and Ann, we've been following your blog. That's so nice of you to have left some food with the missionaries! We really had a good experience while in Poltava, Your trip has brought back many fond memories, good luck, the Morgans.
