Wait a minute

I had been doing some research for some papers on a particular people group (the Tartars of Russia) and had a thought. Maybe after Seminary, me and Rebecca should go to Alaska to reach the Russians that are there and then maybe go to Russia later. I'm not sure where that came from and I'm not sure why I'm posting it now. However, after looking at the the Web site peoplegroups.info I found out that in all of Alaska there are approximately 5,250 people of Russian ancestry. Out of those 5,250, approximately 900 claim Russian nationality. However, approximately 2,000 speak the Russian language. That's pretty cool, I have yet to find out if there are any churches being planted among the Russian people in Alaska. I'm still trying to figure out why I'm thinking about this and all that jazz.
