Ukraine has a rich and storied history. It has long been associated
with its northern neighbor of Russia. In fact it was the original
capital of the Kievan-Rus empire dating from the 700s. In 1991
it once again became its own country. Even though it has faced
many difficulties in the ensuing years, the resourceful and dedicated
citizens have come a long way in a short period of time. For more
information please see the Wikipedia article on the Ukraine found
at Wikipedia

45 km to the northwest of Kyiv.

or by telephone at 303.520.4439.
Costs: $2500 [TBD] This is inclusive of all travel, lodging,

Bible Study: This year we will be doing the third in the
series on Visits with Jesus entitled The Suffering
Servant-King This is available on our web site.
ACCTS has developed an excellent relationship with the Ukrainian
Military Christian Fellowship. We have supported multiple ministries
including a conversational English language camp. We offered our
first English camp in 2001 and have been supporting the MCF effort
every since.
Each year we support a scholarship program for the campers. This
year the cost of camp has increased almost 25%. Food prices have
probably increased 10% over the same time period but other increases
especially in the cost of fuel have impacted Camp costs. None
of the trip costs are used to support this fund. Even if you can't
join us, would you considered giving to this very worthy effort.
The process is very simple and can be done in a very few minutes
if you use the credit card support process identified under the
financial portion of the web site.
Even though no visa is required, please make sure your passport
is valid until at least Jan 2009 and has several empty pages for
customs and immigration use. If you don't have a passport, need
a new one, or need additional pages, please make that a first
order priority. A valid passport is an absolute requirement to
even board the flight.
