After spending a few days in a big city of Nizhniy Novgorod, we landed in Siberian city Irkutsk. It was a good surprise for us to find out that new aircraft AN 148 flies every day from Irkuts to Ust-Kut city. Sure, we decided to fly an hour instead of going 28 hours by train and purchased the air tickets for the very next day. We could enjoy time and pray with our friends in Irkutsk.
On May 29 we arrived to Ust-Kut city and could see a high level of water on the river Lena.
On June 1st, every city and small town has a big celebration - Celebration of Children!
Lots of activities for children at this day! The weather was perfect and many families spent this day together with their kids. It looks like summer came to Siberia on June 1st!
The air was warm but the ground is still cold and planting potatoes and vegetables has been rescheduled to the later time - to the next week or so.
Christian Center "Good News" in Ust-Kut city. Exterior work is already done but interior work is still in a process for a long years...
At Sunday morning church service (above) and Wednesday evening leaders training (below)
We visited a Pastor's home that is still under construction. It's nice that a family with four children has a space for living (for many years they had a flat with a small kitchen, one bedroom, and a family room). They purchased a small house located close to the church building and are doing reconstruction work, step by step, a little by little.
