Subject: Electronic Bible in Russian

Dear Friends,

I have been exhanging messages with a fellow from Almaty, Kazakhstan which
has been very interesting.  Thanks for the opportunity afforded me by
the Friends & Partners to make contacts like this.

In our conversations, I found out that his wife is studying at the
International Bible Institute and he is also studying the Bible.  He has
a 286 PC with an electronic version of the Bible in English.  Since his
English is not real good, he would very much like to have a copy of the
Bible for his PC which is in Russian.  Does anyone out there know where I
might be able to find such?  I would very much like to help him out.

Thanks again for a very educational, entertaining, and enlightening service.
Keep up the good work.  I want to help and participate in any way possible.

Your friend,

Subject: contacts

I appreciate your efforts in connecting the world to Russia. Our school is
sending two Christian instructors to the Ukraine region in March. They will
be in Kiev and Odessa and in one school I know of now. It si Gymnasium
School # 1. Is there a net communication school or place where they can
send email back to our school while they are in Russia? Also, is there a
contact our school can make over there with another school so we can begin
communication between our school and theirs? Your help would be most
appreciated.
Thank you for your assistance. I will look forward to hearing from you.

Subject: Feb 25 Trip to Prague

I leave for Prague next Friday on annual leave
and on my "Own Nickle" to expand a joint venture into
Czech Republic.  It's exciting!  I need English speaking
contacts.  Can you help me?

Your Friends and Partners sounds exciting also.  Russian
was one of my languages in graduate school, so I think
I'll sign up.

Thanks,  Bob
