We received a few lines from Chad this evening letting us know that he is unable to email today because he is on his way to Surgut for ten days while his companion is on his visa trip. Surgut is the farthest north and coldest area in his mission. Surgut is a sixteen hour train ride from Tyumen where he is currently staying with the ZL's. All the excessive traveling for the past few weeks and being away from his own area and work has him feeling frustrated. He seemed a bit discouraged. (No one said it would be easy...grin and bear it.)

All these things shall give thee experience, and shall be for thy good” And to those who obey Him, whether they be wise or simple, He will reveal Himself in the toils, the conflicts, the sufferings which they shall pass through in His fellowship, and … they shall learn in their own experience Who He is”
