10 kids in a VW Bug?

Meet Lilya and Voloday.

They are parents of 10 children (5 biological, 5 adopted...one with HIV).

This Ukrainian family (yes, all 12) drive to work, school, church, etc in a car similar to the size of a VW Bug.

Lifesong Ukraine is looking to raise funds for this family who has been obedient to the call of our Father: to love and care for the orphans.   Because of their faithfulness to this calling, locally they expect to raise $10,000 to cover half of the cost of a 8-10 passanger van.

We would ask that you please join us in faithful prayer for Lilya, Voloday, their children and local church as they continue to follow and trust in Christ for their every need.

"I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you." Matthew 17:20
