We are currently sitting on a train on our way to Prague. We said our goodbyes to our Czech friends- and now we head into our final two days of debrief as a team.
It is bittersweet to leave. Though we only spent 9 or so days together with these students, authentic relationships were formed. Conversations went deep, lives and hearts were shared, crazy games were played.... And so we leave with hearts full. And yet we also leave praying and hoping that these Czech students stay connected. Our desire is that they get plugged into the community at Kostel Jinak, the church plant we partner with in Sumperk. Would you pray with us for this? That as these students experience and see how the Kostel family does life, how they treat each other, how they love- that these students would see Jesus and be pointed to Him.
The weekend of follow-up and staying with Czech families went really well. We went to Kostel together, went for a walk around Sumperk, went on a hike, and had a BBQ. It was great for our students to continue conversations with students from camp and to experience more of Czech culture :)
Today we will meet as a team and with JV missionaries to debrief our trip. Tomorrow we will spend the day seeing Prague! Pray for continued unity for our team to finish strong. Pray for the Lord to be working in our own hearts as we process what we experienced and learned these last two weeks.
We leave early Wednesday morning... And get into MSP later that day. We appreciate prayers for safety as we travel and for smooth flight connections. See you all soon!
So thankful for your prayers,
Jess (for all)
