Tim Whitener taught on Thursday on the subject of Performance Appraisals.  This topic generated much discussion among the students.

In the afternoon, the team attended a Spiritual Formation Conference at UBTS led by Slavic.  The team was asked to talk about Servant Leadership.  Each of us spoke for 5-7 minutes, with Alan doing a longer talk.  There were approx. 200 students at this conference, representing the majority of new students attending the seminary for this year.  What a great spirit was there, and what an encouragement looking forward to the future church in Ukraine.

Afterwards, the team met Slavic at the new building and reviewed the progress to date.  The seminary is hopeful to be in the renovated building by September 2019.

Once we left the building site, we made a visit to the chocolate shop.  Afterwards, Ken, Henry, and Tim went to the underground restaurant, and enjoyed the 1 meter sausage dinner.  Alan had another commitment with one of the local pastors.

We head into our last day tomorrow, tired, but much encouraged by the week.

Still your roving reporter.
