MD COLLEGE STATION, TEXAS

It felt like we walked the entirety of Cologne(which is a staggeringly beautiful city, by the way) with only half a tank of gas. I got to see a ton of people today, just living their lives. I suppose that once my eyes pop back into my head, I'll be able to do what I cam here to do.

JS BEDFORD, TEXAS

Today we spent time getting to know the city and people. Thus far I am falling in line with the culture. Most of usbonded on the flight, so our group is getting along really well! Please pray for continued unity and for us to respond promptly to what God wants us to do. It wasn't until we were flyimg over the celtic Sea(not quite as impressive as the adriatic, but still exciting) I realized fully how amazing it is that God would call a group of teens to be involved in something like this.

LAQ HARLINGEN, TEXAS

After the nine hour flight and less than three hours of sleep on the plane. Today I was physically exhausted. Through walking around Koeln today has changed my look on tired. I can see the lostness in their faces and the exhaustion from carrying the load on their own. I would ask for you to pray that everything be renewed in theor lives and that tonight we get a good rest.

BW LEAGUE CITY, TEXAS

I arrived around 9am in Germany but almost missed my flight because i was talking with another person going to Germany. We have been exploring the city and have tried new things. We are all very tired and are looking forward to a good night sleep.

WLA BROCK

Today we went exploring in Cologne so that we could get to know the town and it was a lot of fun even though I was incredibly tired. So far I have really learned a lot on this trip, especially at Base Camp.

HG BROWNWOOD, TEXAS

Today God revealed the beauty of his forieng nation to all of us. We ventured around the city attempting to conquer the jet lag, and discovering the wonders of Germanny! We saw many beautiful works such as towers and churches of ancient value. Our group is working torwards the common goal of becoming round or blending (n w) the culture so as to reach others. Although the food and customs differ, God has an appartant purpose for us here and has given us the glorious opportunity to be involved in his mighty plan. I appereciate all the prayer and support that made this trip possible and i look forward to what the week will bring!

ALH WINNIE, TEXAS

Hey ya'll. The last 24 hours have been exhausting but rewarding. We arrived safely this morning. We barely had any turblence. I got to see so much and i loved every minute. I even got to go inside the massive cathedral. It makes St. Paul seem so small. I love you all!
