Mission to Ukraine 7/17/2007 - St Andrivsky’s Cathedral, Kiev

I walked down Andrivsky’s street. I had never been inside the old cathedral before, so I bought a ticket and went in. My church in Sanford, Florida is St. Andrew’s Chapel, so the connection is interesting. According to legend, the Apostle Andrew preached to the Scythians in this region. Supposedly, he stood on this hill and prophesied that a great city would be built on that spot.

I bought some Ukrainian folk souvenirs for my wife, which we have in our kitchen now. I ate at McDonalds and found the value meal cost about five dollars, which is about the same in the United States. Still it was packed with people.
