Czech: End of Training Week (Part 2)
Today marks the end of summer intern training week at Malenovice in eastern Czech Republic. So all of the intern teams working in the Czech Republic this summer have been using the day to see the other teams off, relax, and continue to build friendships between each other before heading out on Friday morning. But these last few days have been pretty great. The only thing that has overshadowed this week is the passing of Dan, an old mentor/volunteer of the high school group. While this is a sorroful event, it is at the same time filled with joy for he knew Christ as his Savior. Dan knew where he was coming from and where he was going, to spend eternity with God and His glory.
This last monday night however, our team finally became complete with the arrival of our teammate Aubree. This did not come without stress though. She was supposed to get in at the Frydland train station at 11:45pm but that time came and passed. We ended up driving to the next three stations down the line looking for her but did not find her. After that, we get on the road to the town of Ostrava to see if she missed the train but en route we received a phone call telling us she that she had just reached the Frydland on the last train of the night at 1:45 am. We quickly made a U-turn and picked her up at the station...running over a hedgehog in the process. Finally, our team became complete. Well, its almost dinner time over here (9 hours ahead of Arizona time) so I'll throw up another update sometime next week.
