They grow up so fast!

On June 6th the Heidelberg American High School Class of 2008 graduated downtown. There was the usual pomp and circumstance (pun intended) as well as indoor fireworks! (Something I'm guessing you would never see in the states.) It was a great ceremony. With this graduation came the end of the school year and with the end of the school year came a large number of PCS's (Permanent moves, many back to the states.) 3 out of the 4 girls in my small group moved back to the states. Please pray for all of the families that are readjusting to life in the states as well as to their new homes, schools and friends. Also pray for the students who are preparing to go to college back in the states. This will be their first time living an ocean away from their families. While it is sad to see so many students leave, it is also exciting to think of all the new relationships we will have the opportunity to build this new school year. Please pray for us as we are welcoming a new Community Director and planning for the Fall.
