Summer storms

Hello Friends and Family,

Since last talking with you all, I have spent time on eight planes equaling 30+ hrs. in the air. I was in England for two weeks getting a new visa so I could get back into Russia. Ten days after arriving back in this wonderful country I headed off to New York to spend some time with family and then to Wisconsin for a wedding. All the traveling was a lot of fun, but I can tell you I am done traveling for awhile.

After returning from the States on May 17th, I began final preparations for a group of students that will spend the summer here studying in a university. They have arrived safely and are adjusting to life here. Please be lifting them up as they spend the next seven weeks here spending time with students.

I presently beginning to wrap things up as I leave July 14th. Before then, I will have two more trips out of this city, so my time is really short. I would appreciate your pr's in my last weeks here. I greatly desire to spend this time working with all I am to finish well.

A few pics from my trips!
