Updates!

Well it has been over a full month since our last blog post, so this will be a quick update post to get everyone caught up.

- In August we traveled to Greece for a week! It was a great (though hot) vacation where we got to see some of the most beautiful scenery and some wonderful ancient monuments. To see the rest of the pictures, click here!

- WE HAVE OUR VISAS! We are now done with all things visa related for the WHOLE year! If you remember our experiences last year, this is a huge Hallelujah moment!

- We got to visit the Strahov Monastery in Prague, and see two of the most beautiful libraries in the world! For us English majors, this was a beautiful big deal.

- We have been back to school for 2 weeks, and it has been great seeing our students from last year as well as meeting our new students. We're really looking forward to beginning the English Drama Club next week as well as starting English Movie Nights at our school this year!

Prayer Requests:
- We will be doing a lot of traveling coming up, so prayers for safety as we travel as well as rest as we balance travel & work schedules.
- Health.
- There is a group of six CRU members who have just moved to Prague for the year. Prayers for their ministry here as well as their interactions with students.
- There are two of our Teach Beyond team members who, due to visa issues, are still not in the Czech Republic. One arrives this week, and the other is still waiting for her visa to clear. Prayers for them as they hit the ground running once they're here and peace/patience as they wait.

Praises:
- We have started attending a weekly Bible study with a group from our church which has already been a wonderful blessing & we're looking forward to how God can use our time together.
- Being back at school has been great! Though it's still work & tiring, we're just so glad to be back with the students.
- Fall weather is here!
- Grace, Providence, Mercy, & Joy!
