You can track their progress on the Lufthansa website, here.   Their first flight is: LH 1462.  Then their second flight is:  LH 456. Make sure to enter the date of May 29th, 2012. (Or a live website where the plane moves as you watch!) The three weeks have flown by and it seems like they have just arrived, excited to serve the fatherless of Russia.  And now they have boarded the plane to come back home.  Each one is excited to see family and friends, yet sad to leave the relationships that were built with the children and teens at the two … Continue reading →
