Attractive young ladies just don't come up to me in lines for some reason, but when I was waiting in the immigration line at the airport in Kiev, Victoria did just that and asked why I was in the "visa" line if I am an American since Americans do not need visas. I explained that I would be here more than three months so I needed one. When I told her why I was here, Victoria lit up and said that she was going to be working with orphans this week. It turns out that Victoria is a children's rights lawyer in the States who wants to do more outreach and advocacy for kids in trouble with the law. I told her that is what we are doing and now she is interested in helping out here (her grandfather lives in Ukraine) and in America.
Not a bad way to start the trip, eh?

Why
For a while now, I have thought about sharing some of the things I encounter in the ministry, dream up, or just find amusing, challenging, or thought provoking. So here it is. My blog. I will use it to post things that are going on within Straight Ahead Ministries, including stories involving the kids we meet in the juvenile justice system.
