In Transit
July 2nd, 2008
And we’re off….
In a few hours we’ll all be checking-in, bidding farewell to our luggage and boarding planes to Newark! And then we FINALLY get to meet the group and start getting to know each other!
Just a note to all our blog fans (if there are any)….we will try to post as often as we can given our schedules, access to internet cafes, and the occasional ‘power cut’. In the mean time, please leave us comments–we want to hear from you + they make us feel good!
Until the next internet cafe….

Hello, Arts and Religions group, 2008 edition!
As I write this you are about to board your Newark to Delhi flight for the long trip across the ocean. You’re reading this in an unfamiliar but exciting environment. I have been and will be praying for a safe and uneventful trip that will give all of you opportunities to expand your gifts and talents as you meet new people and see new sights. Have a safe and wonderful adventure and come back ready to share your new knowledge and experiences. Your parents and friends miss you but are so proud of the responsible young adults you are becoming. Make the most of your opportunity this summer.

P.S. Thanks, April, for loaning Beth your cell to call me. It was priceless to hear her voice. I owe you.
