How was the safari? We here at home are counting down the days until you are home - 4 1/2 days, to be exact! :) It will be nice to have you home again, church doesn't seem the same with all of you gone. Pastor Nancy, am I picking you and Theo up at the airport or is Dan? Just want to make sure we get it right this time! You can maybe give me a call once you reach NY. Savanna, today we are going to Cole's first band concert. He is SO excited, we will record it so you can see it when you get home. Cant wait to see you all and hear your wonderful stories! Have a SAFE trip back and we'll see you in Minneapolis. Love, Kristie Hi Everyone!

It sounds like you are having a great trip. This is a once in a lifetime trip so make the most of it! In MN we are making the most of watching the Olympics. It is so impressive to see what these athletes can do after all the training time they put it. It sounds like the Bachman's were members of your church. It is such a sad story. They are fortunate to have such a supportive church community. Enjoy all that this adventure has in store for you. We will pray that you return safely to us in MN. Kwa Heri, Ann, Jim, & Eddie Hoey Hi Jessica & Sue,

If you get this before going to Ruaha, please take some time there to reflect individually or as a group on important things in life and lessons learned during this whirlwind. Will you approach next week/next year/the rest of your life just a little different? The mission field is everywhere, Tanzania is just a great place to discover where it fits into your life. Don't forget the lessons learned or let the your fire dim as this trip becomes a memory. I have been enjoying this journey with you. God's blessings and may your life be filled with "Holy Goosebump" moments! Peace! Bo your time is flying, have you been pinching yourself?

Technology is a wonderful thing when we can make it work. In lieu of what happened in Bejing we are all a little nervous. Christiania was a SAD place on Sunday but many prayers were lifted up for the Bachmans. We are now praying for Barbs recovery. The media was at church and Pastor Dave did a great job of keeping it from becoming a spectacle, no cameras in church and only a few interviews in the parking lot. Todd has gotten wonderful TV coverage. He was as nice a man in his work and social life as he was at Christiania. Sounds like you have had a busy schedule, we missed hearing from you for a couple of days. We hope your last week will be as good or better than the first two. Your time on Safari will probably be a highlight for many of you. To Sue and Jessie--Enjoy each day and we'll be waiting for you with open arms. Our love and prayers go with you. Love, Bob and Arlene Jacobson Greetings to all the Christiania Travelers,

Sounds like you are having a blast. Cathleen and Abby I didn't forget about you. My computer got some kind of virus that killed the mother board so had to go out and purchase a new one. Not Fun. Kris O called me today about camping on Labor day. She was able to schedule 4 sites in owatonna now we need to let her know if we are all going. Continue to have a blast and know that we are all thinking of you and keeping you in our prayers. PSS Got down on my knees last Sunday in church and begged for help with SS beings you left me. Just kidding. Had pastor make and announcement and got lots of volunteers. It will be hard but will get it done with out you. Love ya, Angie Hey everyone. Sounds like you are having a blast.
