Final Weekend in the Balkans

The moment has finally arrived; our last weekend in the Balkans. The Kosovo and Macedonia teams threw us a great send-off bbq. We had a great bitter-sweet time together. Saying goodbye is never easy, regardless of how many times you have to say it. It was a day that I both enjoyed and endured. Not knowing when I will see some of these dear people again is not a pleasant thought. But, I also know that this the right time for us to leave.

Sunday I will deliver my final message at the Skopje Evangelical Church, our partner church's mother church. I have preached many times there and have always received a gracious welcome. It will be hard to leave this adopted church home too. Please pray for good closure.

We head to Germany where our youngest son, David, graduates from the Black Forest Academy on Friday. Then on to Toccoa to spend some time with Sharon's dad and step mom.

Pray for good flights.

More next week.
