I'm wishing to take my family to Myrtle Beach, SC one last time. After months of searching God’s will for our family, we finally decided to go and continue our ministry back in the Ukraine.

I WISH that everyone would wear red, white or blue

September 11, 2009


As the anniversary of 9/11 approaches, like many, I find myself remembering that awful day. Most people can recall what they were doing at that exact moment. It is a bit easier for me to recall what I was doing that dreaded day, because I was there and witnessed it all. I even remember what I was wearing, because I had a 12 hour walk home to my Brooklyn apartment in those horrible high heels, covered in soot, dust & dirt. Many lives were lost that day, many of my friends, aquaintances and co-workers. My life-long dream of a finance career in NYC shattered immediately. READ ENTIRE WISH.
