Tonight's post comes from the comfort of my house. Our entire team made it home with all of their luggage but without all of their normal energy. Please pray for us as we attempt to adjust to this time zone. We have basically just completed a 20 hour trip.
We are all thankful for the folks who helped us get home tonight after the bus had a tire blowout on the way to the airport. Ed Johnson and Ski Szymanski came to the rescue with our two smaller buses. Skip Tucker got the large bus fixed. Thanks to them, along with Allyson and Monty, for helping us get home with only a 30 minute delay. Thanks to God that we were not on the bus when it happened - being stuck on the side of the road after such a long day of travel would have been challenging!
You would probably enjoy knowing that as our plane landed in Orlando a recording came over the sound system saying that there was an emergency. There was a pause and then the message was given that we were going to land in the ocean. We were instructed how to get our life jacket and how to slide out of the plane. This was funny for most except those of us who had wings in the middle section next to the wings. Our only view was the glare off of the wing which looked like clouds. I kept looking out wondering why we were still in the clouds when we would be getting close to our landing time. When the emergency message came on the plane immediately touched down with the usual noise - but if you had my seat I had no idea that we were actually touching down. That experience will make your heart beat!!! David Galat said he was thinking that he wished he had paid more attention to the emergency directions at the first of the flight. Needless to say we were awake at that point of the flight!
Have a great night - I'll post more photos tomorrow when my brain starts functioning again.

Thank God you`re all home in safe! May you have a good resting time. I know it`s not easy to adjust to the new time zone. But God will reward you here on Earth and much more in Heaven for all you`ve done!
Glad to hear you all made it safely home. From all of the "challenges"...you guys must have had an AWESOME time witnessing to others about Christ and His goodness and mercy.
I'll be praying harder for you all now that you're home. The devil is waiting to attack, especially after a trip to the top of the mountain!! This is not something new, nor should it surprise you...just know that God is so good and we are the victors through Him!!
