Our Rehab Center Turns 8!

Earlier this month we celebrated the 8th anniversary of our rehabilitation center! Some of our current and former patients gathered with their families and our staff for an afternoon of celebration in the park.  God gave us a beautiful day to spend together in His creation.  We enjoyed shish kabobs, played volleyball, and fellowshipped together.  Patients shared about when and…

Christ if Risen, He is Risen Indeed!

Another blast of winter greeted Ukraine during the weekend of Palm Sunday, making it seem more like Christmas should be approaching than Easter!     But the weather improved throughout the week and we celebrated the resurrection of our Lord last Sunday with beautiful spring weather!  Like several other eastern European countries, Ukraine follows a different calendar, so Easter typically lands on a…

Why the stem cell policy is wrong

CHICAGO (BP)–President Obama kept at least two campaign promises March 9 when he signed a bill authorizing the expenditure of tax-dollars for embryo-destructive stem cell research. Many have been surprised that it has taken so long for him to follow through on the first promise, the federal funding of embryonic stem cell research. Throughout the…

Destroying Human Life at Tax-payers’ Expense

March 9, 2009 Today, President Barack Obama signed an executive order lifting the ban on federal funding for embryonic stem cell research. Let’s be clear about what this means.
