Field Forum Bound

This is just a quicky blog to say: hit, aloha, zdravo, mirdita, hola, etc. before heading off for a week in sunny (I pray) Baska Voda, Croatia. The road trip takes us through bread basket of Kosovo, the spectacular mountains of Montenegro, perhaps around a rockslide or two, to the coast where we cross into Croatia, then Bosnia-Hercegovina, before crossing back in to Croatia just a couple of hours from our destination. Oh! Let it be sunny this year! (It's always a toss-up this time of year whether we'll have warm sun or chilly storms or some combination of both).

Frankly I'm excited to be heading back to Baska Voda. It's a small town, but this time of year it's pretty much ours for a week. THe locals are totally nice and the accomodations are perfect--which includes the run of a large upstairs room where my colleagues are known to stay up late playing intense games of Phase 10 and Uno whilst drinking endless cups of coffee (and this after a morning of worship, message, and strategic field meetings and an afternoon at the beach or hotel pool. Really, our field forum times are a great opportunity for us to fellowship as a team, strengthening our bonds and encouraging one another, as well as times for business meetings and strategic stuff. :)

Please be praying with us for a safe trip and meaningful time spent together. Oh yes, and please pray for sun too. Catch ya on the flip-side!
