Flights Cancelled

Well. We didn't get very far today. Our 3 flights to London were cancelled because of the ash cloud. After talking to a friend who is a 777 captain as well as another aquaintence who is a United Airlines dispatcher, we were advised to avoid anywhere in Northern Europe for the next 36 hours. Then we had to make a quick decision concerning the rest of the team's arrivals. All 7 Americans will now leave for Rome tomorrow. That's one day late for three of us and 2 days early for the others. We then take an overnight train to Paris, then the Euro Chunnel to London, where the vans will meet us.  The four Europeans have been advised to find emergency train routes to London, we are working under the assumption that all air travel might cease for a few days. And we just pray that our 2 guys coming from Asia will somehow make it into London.  We spent 4 INSANE hours with 5 laptops and 4 cell phones all going nuts until we rescheduled. Big thanks to Kayla, Daniel, Benjamin, Megan, and Jessica for what was a very chaotic tough 4 hours! We are now over budget but in the end had to trust God that the results will be worth it.  So. We honestly need MORE prayer cover.  What a start...
