The Days

Nathan and Katelin are serving as missionaries to Ukraine. Nathan began ministering in Lviv, Ukraine, in 2004. He met Katelin in 2008, they were married one year later, and shortly thereafter returned to Lviv as a couple.

As a member of ETO, Nathan wears many hats. He helps manage Bible First, ETO’s correspondence course. A fluent speaker of Ukrainian, he plays an important role in translating materials into Ukrainian. As the numbers man, he keeps track of the statistics that help ETO refine its methods to become more effective, and he looks after the ministry’s finances. For years he was deeply involved in ETO’s summer project, Carpathian Mountain Outreach, and today he helps carry out Ukraine Gospel Outreach in the de-occupied south. In recent years he has also taken on the development and maintenance of ETO’s websites.

Katelin’s days are full as she juggles many things: raising her children, homeschooling, feeding all the hungry mouths, and keeping the cobwebs at bay. She loves people, and socializing brings her great joy! She hopes that she can encourage women by offering a listening ear and a good word. A few of her favorite things about Lviv include the open-air markets, the beautiful green parks, and how so many places are accessible on foot.
