Mark Babich, Elijah Primachenko
On Sunday, we held a banquet for local Americans that support SMBS right in the main sanctuary. We held a small service and even had a chance to talk to them about our mission here at this school. They were not only encouraged to support the school, but also encouraged us to keep striving forward toward Christ. On Monday, we meet Victor Dorofeev. He instructed us on the New Testament. He knows almost all the New Testament by heart and taught us in depth of each book in the New Testament. On Tuesday, during Choir practice, we figured out that something big was going to happen. Not only was Easter around the corner, but we learned 8 songs in one practice that we were expected to know by heart. It was probably the most intense choir practice that we had all year. During the week, we also were getting ourselves ready for our first car wash on Saturday. On Friday, instead of having our instructor (because he left early to visit the next event for him to attend at another church), we had a car wash prep course where we learned how to run the car washes. On Saturday, we had our first car wash. We raised about $9,500 in about 6 hours. It almost beat last years record which is about $100 off from $10,000. We not only raised money, but we also got some rednecks as well. We came back home from a sunny day that left 5 students having blisters on there face because the sun burn was that bad. Mark was one of the students that got blisters from it. But we thank God so much for giving us the opportunity to go out there and raise money for missions.
Here is a few pictures of this week from various students here at the school.
