fellowship hall at the Riga First Methodist Church.<span> </span>This is a project not dissimilar to many
improvement projects - one improvement leads to another.<span> </span>As we got closer to putting in a new laminate
floor, we realized the walls and the ceiling needed to be repaired and painted
first. The District Office also has offices in the church and District Superintendent
Gita Mednis wanted the hallway, outside the fellowship hall, ceiling and walls
patched and painted as well – and the front steps of the church repaired.<span> </span></span></span></div>

</xml><![endif]--><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">So far, we have been in Latvia for 5 weeks.<span> </span>We have inspected almost all of the Methodist
Churches and church related facilities.<span>
</span>We have gone to church services at 5 of the 10 churches.<span> </span>(And have plans to go to a sixth church for
services on Sunday.)<span> </span>I thought people
would like to hear a few of my observations.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Latvians are a kind courteous people with strong rural
roots.<span> </span>The fact that their largest
national events are their national choir and folk dance festivals should tell
you something.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">It has been hard for Latvia to completely put 50 years of
communist rule behind them, but, all things considered, they are actually doing
amazingly well.<span> </span>The same would apply to
the Methodist Church in Latvia. <span> </span>The
three large churches that they got back in the early 1990’s, two in Riga and
one in Liepaja, attest to the fact that there was a vibrant Methodist Church in
Latvia in the 1940’s.<span> </span>To me, the Methodist
Church has had two big struggles to overcome. <span> </span>The first is the fact that most things cost at
least as much here as they do in the States, if not more, sometimes quite a bit.
<span> </span>This combined with the fact that the per
capita income in Latvia is 60% less than it is in the United States does not
leave a lot left over at the end of the month for the average person.<span> </span>The second is the fact that the Methodist
Church in Latvia had to almost start from scratch. <span> </span>After Latvia got its independence from Russia,
there was just a handful of Latvians that did most of the work to restart their
previous congregations.<span> </span>As you also
know in the States things move slow in churches.<span> </span>But they have a close church family and have lots
of kids and youth participating in church, as well as many young
ministers.<span> </span>Like any other growing
church family they also have some growing pains and one of them is how to deal
with their current buildings.<span> </span>Most of
their buildings have some kind of heating problem.<span> </span>Today, the standard has changed.<span> </span>Young people don’t expect to sit in cold churches
any longer and old buildings generally cost quite a bit more to heat.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">I did take some tourist pictures, if you plan to
visit Latvia.<span> </span>Clarence and I had Friday
off so we rented a car from a local rental person, off the internet, and drove
to two of the big tourist sites in Latvia – Turaida Castle and Rundale
Palace.<span> </span>As you can see for yourself both
were very impressive.<span> </span></span></span></span><br />

of Latvia we might not otherwise see.<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><span></span>Saturday,
two of the pastors from the Riga 2<sup>nd</sup> <span style="font-size: large;">C</span>hurch were taking a mother and
her son <a href="http://www.blogger.com/null" name="OLE_LINK1">up to see another son, Edgars, at a juvenile
justice school near Resekne, close to the border with Russia.<span> </span></a>They were taking a van so had extra room.
<span> </span>We said sure we would go.<span> </span>It was a 3 hour trip each way.<span> </span><span> </span>The juvenile
justice school was across the road from a very large lake and near a national
park visitor’s site. <span> </span>A couple of the
things we did with Edgars was to go to the visitor’s site and to play the card
game Uno. Uno is a game we play in the US also. Good thing we had learned our
colors in Latvian.</span></span></div>

hill. <span> </span>In 1875, Napoleon’s army was in
the region and his painter painted a picture of the castle ruins.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">On Monday we went to Liepaja. It was a 3 ½ hour bus ride. Liepaja is a sea port and industrial
city. Its largest employer is a huge metal works. They told us Liepaja had over a 100,000
people 20 years ago, but now has 80,000 people.
A lot of communist controlled industries closed when Latvia became
independent. They weren’t efficient enough to make it without government
support. There were a lot of Russians in
Liepaja - some of them left and others stayed. </span></span></div>

into to a two apartment church. The
apartments (flats) were given to the church by the local officials. The flats were in rough shape before they
started renovating them - 7 years ago.
The congregation’s next goals are to have some playground equipment and
a formal church building one day. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Yesterday, we had a nice trip to Liepa and Cesis to inspect
the Methodist Churches in those towns.
In Liepa, the church is on the first floor and the Hope Center on the second
floor. The Hope Center is a residence
for unwed mothers.</span></div>

building that they renovated to these uses.
It is in nice shape, but the building has high heating bills and they
want to know why.</span></div>

wood boiler for the heating system and a room next to the boiler room were the
fireman can sleep as he keeps the boiler stoked during night. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We had a whirlwind weekend. Saturday afternoon we went to
the Riga 2<sup>nd</sup> Methodist Church.
There we met with Kristine Vainovka, and her father, the pastor of the
church. Kristine did the translating. We started our inspection of the building,
but between discussions over coffee and a meal they served us it was soon time
to catch of 6:05 bus to Kuldiga. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Kuldiga is 90 miles due west from Riga, but a 2 ½ hour bus trip. The town dates back to the 1240's. There is a small but growing Methodist congregation in Kuldiga. </span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Our hostess for the night was
Igita Zageri and her family at their farm 10 Km from town. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Sunday, we got a small tour of town, did our inspection of
the church, attended the service, had lunch with Pastor Vivita Barenite and barely
made it to the station for our 2:30 bus trip back to Riga. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">The first few days of any long term work trip are about
getting oriented, making sure everything is working, and establishing a plan of
work for your stay. This has included
everything from meeting and getting to know the people we will be working with to finding the best place to buy groceries.
It also took us a few days to get our internet working in our
apartment.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">Our adventure begins TODAY - Monday, April 15th when we leave Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport for the Netherlands and then on to Riga, Latvia for our VIM project. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: small;">Our work will be focused on the buildings of nine local
congregations in Latvia.<span> </span>We will inspect
the buildings, identify needed repairs, create a work plan and timeline for
each site, and investigate/estimate the costs of materials and tolls for each
site.<span> </span>This effort will also look at
both short and long-term plans for upkeep and maintenance to ensure that our
efforts and recommendations are sustainable.<span>
</span>The over-all purpose for the project is to have excellent plans in place
for each of the nine congregations to use with their renovation and upkeep
efforts, but mostly for the UMVIM teams as they come to Latvia in late 2013 and
2014.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">We will be living in a modest apartment just a few blocks
from the offices of the Superintendent of the Methodist Church of Latvia,
Reverand Gita Mednis.<span> </span>Providing
additional support and picking us up the airport is Rihard Germans, office
manager at district office of Metodistu Baznica.<span> </span>This “hub” is in the old town of Riga and
beautiful architecture will surround us.<span>
</span>We look forward to meeting new friends, traveling throughout the
countryside and seeing both small towns, cities, and experiencing the urban life
of Latvia as we complete our VIM work.</span></div>
