Almost there...

Packing's pretty much done, with the final suitcase weighing about 45 pounds. Now I just have to organize my affairs at home (i.e. leaving my room in a state of relative neatness) and enjoy the last day at home (we're going to C-bus the night before I fly out from there).

If you're willing, I probably will need all the prayer I can get during this adventure. Here are some specifics.

• That I would be able to overcome my visual impairment, and communicate my needs to other people
• That I might find other Christ-followers among my fellow OSU students or the people I meet in Moscow
• That I will be confident in speaking Russian (I tend to get rather nervous when trying to use the language)
• That I'll stay physically, emotionally, and financially well and safe
• That I'll gain a sense of direction for the future
• That I will reflect the love of Christ to those around me

Winging out,
