Just a quick note to say that I made it safely to Sweden! I got into Stockholm at about 7:30am this morning (Monday) Sweden time. I'm staying with friends in the area tonight before taking a train out to Jönköping tomorrow afternoon.
I'm liking the cooler weather!!!! After such a hot summer, 50/60 degrees is soooo wonderful. Sure, it may be raining, but that's no big deal. I just love the refreshing change - just like fall! I'm all for jacket/sweatshirt weather :)

Sweden...here I come!
Just a quick note...
Less than 2 days til I get to head to Sweden again :) I'm really excited! Please pray that the flight will be on time Sunday afternoon and that all will go smoothly! Also, please pray for good opportunities for me to learn lots this next month and that I will be able to be a help to the Neelys there!

Sweden Trip...9 days and counting :)
I apologize for my lack of faithfulness in blogging as of late! Things have been so crazy busy that I just haven't taken the time to get on here and write stuff!
I have been home now for a couple of weeks. It really has been nice to be back - nice to be with family, nice to catch up on stuff at home :)
I've gotten a lot done. I finally finished the novel I've been writing since I started deputation! Don't know how good it is, but at least the first draft is now complete! I have some family/friends reading it for me, then I'll work on editing and fixing it up. You never know, maybe someday I can get it published. We'll see!
I've also gotten a lot of work done on sorting, organizing and packing! I'm praying about moving to Sweden in January, so I figured I should get a jump on going through stuff.
I've also been working on some more music writing projects. I've gotten one song completely finished and another about half way done. It takes time, that's for sure! But it's SOOOO nice to be back with my piano again! Anyway, I've got lots more to accomplish before I head out to Sweden in 9 days!!!!!
This coming Wednesday I will, Lord willing, be down in MO for a meeting. Then a week from this coming Sunday night, I'll be heading to Chicago to fly to Stockholm. I'll be meeting up with friends there Monday morning and will be taking the train to Jönköping that Tuesday afternoon.
I got an amazing deal on a train ticket, so that's exciting! But I do have to switch trains twice - in two cities I've never been :) Should be exciting! Pray I don't get lost or stuck somewhere!
I'm so excited about this trip to Sweden! I'll be there a month - so I'll have lots of opportunities to further work on my Swedish :) I'll also be trying to get some visa stuff worked on while there, and I will also be helping out in the ministry as best I can! Please pray for safety and for good ministry opportunies!
I will certainly try to do better at keeping you all posted - especially once I get to Sweden! Thanks for your prayers!
And please, if any of you have any prayer requests, please let me know how I can pray for you as well!
