Right now we are sitting in London's Heathrow airport trying to make good use of our eight hour wait before we leave. Tracy's going over his Cinyanja cards while I'm blogging with James Taylor singing in my ears.
There is definitely more of an international flavor here~our ears are listening to different languages, our eyes are being reminded of selwar chamises (traditional dress of India's women) and Nigerian costumes. And, there just went a woman carrying her baby on her back like Zambian mothers.
People have asked if we are ready to return~our answer is yes, it's time to go back. God has blessed us with a tremendously wonderful home assignment~we can't imagine a better one. Neal's accident has tempered our enthusiasm a bit as we are concerned for him. However, he has a fantastic network of friends who are watching over him. And, God loves him more than anyone else on this planet. So, we put him in the loving hands of the One Who knows our hearts. Thank you for your prayers for Neal as well as for our return to Africa. The Lord bless you!

God bless you as you return to Africa.
Dear Tracy and Karen,
I enjoy reading about the river of life God has you on. May He continue to bless you with a passion to glorify Him with the work you are doing in Africa and may He raise up your son Neal, from all of his injuries! I hope we will meet again, wherever God sets the stage. Much love to you, Christine from Ashton Bible Church :-)
