Waiting in Amsterdam

Good morning everyone! After a sleep on the plane through the night we are sitting in Amsterdam Airport.  Nothing much to see at the airport other than construction and renovations.  We had to go through about 4 or 5 security checks with passports and now we are just waiting to get our flight to Minneapolis which leaves at 3:10pm local time here.

When we arrived here we said good bye to Felicia, the Rickenbach's and the Vogt Family.  We are going to miss hanging out with them all and look forward to when we will see them again.  All of those listed are staying here in Amsterdam for two days of wind down time before they head back to the states.

The rest of our team will already be back in America and heading to their homes.  It was a great experience for everyone and we are thankful for the unity amongst our team.  Of course there were a few minor personality conflicts along the way but all in all we had a great team to work with and many children heard the gospel message of Christ through our efforts.  I don't have any totals of how many kids we had contact with.  I would estimate that our family would have had contact with about 2000 kids.  Just a guess but we had kids from Zambia, from children's church two places, from 5 schools and two drop in centres.

Thank you for your prayer support.  Please continue to pray for safety and health as we travel the last two flights home.  Crystelle is still suffering with a head cold but the rest of us are feeling well.  Once home we will all get to experience jet lag together.  Prayer for patience for us all!

See you soon!
