Late today we were notified that National's Wednesday supper speaker cancelled, so we jumped in to fill that spot.

It is interesting the variety of opinions that will be in one audience, so while one person might challenge our assertions, another will back them whole-heartedly.

It's a touch of Georgia nostalgic kitsch - which usually isn't a problem, except that Georgia's past includes a big dose of slavery and racism

We are feeling wiped out - orientation has involved long days, and arranging all of the logistics for the remainder of our time in the States takes a lot of time and energy.

We were surprised to find that all the tables set out were filled, especially this being a summer evening in Chicago with many other things competing for attention.

The Sunday School children had drawn a mural for us, which we hope to share with our friends back in Zababdeh.
