Shalom Church Blog

Shalom Church in Lovech now has their own blog. It can be found at http://shalom-lovech.blogspot.com/. Check it out!

It has some history and pictures of the purchase of the building and also has pictures of things completed since we left Bulgaria the end of June.

The Banner of Hope still waving!

According to Meloni, they are now putting in dry wall at the church site. The momentum is rising with the church after we came and worked those two weeks. They continue to be excited about what we did and the amount of pledges they needed to continue the building was reached while we were there! Hope to post some pictures as the building continues!

Team # 2 now known as Team Slava Na Boga

Just a quick post to keep you updated on our journey.....both flights were delayed a little in both Chicago and Newark but we were able to ride back together and arrived in the church parking lot close to 1 AM. We were all in good spirits, with no clean clothes left and talking about how much we loved Bulgaria and want to go back! Thanks for all your prayers.

FYI - Slava Na Boga means Praise the Lord!

Making Progress

Looks like we will be leaving today. We have checked in and have seat assignments on Continental Airlines flight CO 51Y. We will be delayed leaving but are told about 12:45. If all goes as planned....... we should arrive at Newark about 3:45 and then on to RDU about 9ish. Rebecca and Amy will be on American Airlines also arriving in RDU about 9ish. Thanks for everyone's prayers! We've have a great MISSION!

We found them!

Rebecca and I finally found the other part of Team 2 at another hotel. We rode a couple of shuttles and pestered :) our concierge and information desks at the terminals until we located them.

They had been looking for us too.

We are coming back to the U.S. on different airlines but should arrive within 10 minutes of each other in RDU. Keep praying!
