Thank you for your prayers for us. We are currently at Chicago O’Hare waiting for the last leg of our journey back to Kansas City.

We spent our last couple of days visiting with friends and our Pioneers colleagues in Slavonski Brod, where we used to live. They even took us across the border into Bosnia (where we lived for 14 years) to enjoy some good Bosnian food and shopping since the prices were much lower. Daniel helped them install a kitchen in the ministry house since they are preparing for a new family who are moving to Croatia in a couple of weeks to begin ministry.

Our flights were very early in the morning from Zagreb, Croatia, with connections in Munich, Germany, and Chicago.

On the flight from Munich, Daniel got an earbud tip lodged deep in his ear and was also suffering from a fever and a migraine; when we got to Chicago, he felt awful. We looked for medical attention at the airport, but the only available place was closed because it was the 4th of July. The airline would not let us fly until we got medical clearance, so we had to Uber to an urgent care clinic during our eight-hour Chicago layover. They were able to get the earbud tip out and cleared him to fly. He’s still not feeling well, so please continue to pray for him.

Thank you for encouraging us through your prayers.
