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 ministry locations.
Please pray for the two CBU teams as they journey home. We hope that you, friends and family, will be excited to see them and will want to hear every detail of their life changing trip. Remember, they want to share with you their joys and sadness, plus show you the hundreds of pictures which speak thousands of words. We pray that you take the time to listen and help them to process their time with us in Russia.
To all the Mothers and Fathers: Thank you so much for raising such Godly women and men! You have done well! Thank you for entrusting us with your children. Being parents ourselves, it will be hard when our 4 year old will tell us that she wants to go to a faraway place to serve. Even though we teach her about missions and service, it will be hard to let go. But our job as parents is to encourage them to grow in their faith and pray that their life adventures are centered around serving God.
May God bless you and your families! We hope that the team members and/or those reading the blog will once again (or for the first time) serve with us in Russia.
God Bless!

Thank you for giving my son the opportunity to serve the Lord with you and for watching over him and the team. Also thanks for all the updates so I could pray more effectively. I will keep praying for you and Russia. “As for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the Lord by ceasing to pray for you…” Samuel 12: 23 I look forward to meeting you some day 🙂
Thank you so much for the hospitality that you all provided for my daughter during those three weeks , I thank God for giving her the opportunity to come and serve in this far away place, it was a great experience for her, she has a lot to talk about, we are going to continue praying for you and this ministry. Thank you once again. God bless you.
