August 4, 2:30PM – Jody finally boarded the plane here in Portland has made her connection in Chicago. Thanks for your prayers! Now, if you can pray her luggage through that would be helpful. We won’t hear from her now for seven hours or so (after 10 PM our time). As near as I can tell, they have a three hour layover in Frankfurt so they should be able to make the connection.

By the way, if you are receiving these updates via email, you may want to visit our blog site from time to time since I’ll update it fairly frequently, but cut and paste the information from there to these e-mails a bit less frequently. Also, there is a link to Jody’s local time and weather in the right sidebar on the site.

Blessings!

Dan
