July 19

For the most part, we all slept well last night as we tried to recover from jet-lag.  Had a couple of us up at 2 am but were able to get back to sleep fairly quickly. Today we spent time in training for our time in Poland.  We learned a little of the history of Poland and the current religious scene.  We practiced some Polish and got to know a little about the other teams who are here and where they will be headed to.  The afternoon was spent being tourists in Krakow which was fun.  We walked around the city center, got a tram city tour ride and dinner in the city.  Some of us headed back the hotel after dinner but some said a spent a couple more hours touring the city and buying some souvenirs. Tomorrow we head out to our church and get to meet the people we are serving.  Thanks for all the prayers.  They have been felt. - Jim
