Our time of travel has arrived. Half the team, the Hjemvicks and Fisks left with our luggage for Chicago today. Very early tomorrow morning at 4:30am the four guys will leave the northwoods and begin our long journey to Budapest. We will be meeting up on the campus of Trinity Seminary and University where Jeremy Mlaker and his friend Jeremy Olson will drive our cars and us to Ohare so that we can save on parking and the long walk to the terminal. Our flight is at 2:30pm to JFK in New York and then on to Budapest arriving at 10:35am in the morning. For us Thursday travelers that is 24 hours of traveling with whatever sleep you might be able to get on the airplane. Once on the ground Brad and his team will pick us up and get us settled. We will probably begin one of the projects and work until 8pm so that we start adjusting to the 6 hour time difference in our sleep habits. Pray for safe travel and to keep the flu bug away. Oh yes, check us out on late Friday for any updates and maybe even some pics. God's grace and smile, 2009 Rhino's

Rhinos!
You are beginning a journey that will undoubtedly take you in new places! ... physically, mentally, emotionally ... and most of all spiritually ... look for God everywhere!
As I think of you on your way, I have to say that there is a part of me going with you! This is a special group, and a special place where you will be serving. I really wish it could have worked out for me to go ... next time! ... when your Dad goes, Wyler!!
My prayer for each of you these days will be according to 2 Thessalonians 1:11-12
With this in mind, (I) we constantly pray for you, that our God may count you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your faith. I (We) pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Serve on!!

We, too, join our brothers and sisters in holding this team of Rhinos up in prayer..."We are bound to thank God always for you, brothers and sisters, as it is fitting, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of every one of you all abounds toward each other." 2 Thes 1:3
We are looking forward to your updates, photos, and hearing about your long and "WYnding" journey.
Love ~ Lo
