Don't be jealous...

Along with visiting the castle, we ate our picnic dinner provided by the Link church outside of the castle walls overlooking the city of Sterling with the beautiful mountains in the background.  (pictures will follow soon...)  "I asked the team how often do you get to eat dinner outside castle walls?"  Answer:  Once in a lifetime...Amazing!

Our team is growing weary in well doing, but truly up for the task.  Again, the team has been simply incredible.  I have never worked with a youth team that has been this incredible.  (Way to go, parents!)

Several of the students have mentioned to me that they are not ready to come  home.  Don't take it personally, parents, but the students are acquiring not only a love for Scotland, but a love for serving, giving, and the development of a world vision.  It is fun to watch and observe this take place in each of the student's lives.

As this missions adventure comes to an end, I am expecting many tears tomorrow night as we say good-bye once again to the Link Church.  However, we are making tentative plans to reconnect again sometime soon.

As Pastor Greg mentioned, we will spend the day tomorrow visiting the capital city of Edinburgh.  We will depart Dunfermline on the 9:04 train and return in the evening for a Scottish Ceilidh.

Please keep praying as we return home.  We can feel your prayers.  Thank you!
