I can give an update only on my own travels, as I had the earliest flight out of Krakow this morning. I arrived safely in Kiev and tomorrow will continue on to Kharkiv, in the northeastern corner of Ukraine. This is a "scouting trip" for a possible VISION ministry in the near future, at the invitation of the Slavic Christian Mission director Ron Putnam.
I saw on Facebook that Val White made it safely to her family in Turkey. The other team members are on their way to San Diego and other destinations.
So...
Hey VISION members! Add your comments to this post, telling us how it all went. I'm praying for you all!

VISION Team Flight Information for June 2
VISION XVII had a memorable "farewell dinner" tonight in a Krakow restaurant that can trace its history back to the 900s. We shared testimonies of God's blessing, as well as appreciation to each other. Then we had the privilege of attending a recital of Chopin piano music here in the land where he was born.
After one last Magnum stop, we returned to our hotel, where team members continued the traditions of revealing who their secret prayer pals were, and singing humorous and warm-hearted spoof songs for each other, based on the funny things that happened during the trip. (The boys sing for the girls and vice versa.)
Some of us had to say goodbye to each other tonight, due to the wide range of flight departure times on Tuesday.
For family members or other interested friends:
We have five different itineraries for our departure from Poland. The following reflect only the flights that occur on Tuesday, June 2 that were booked by Eva at European Travel. Various team members will return to San Diego on later dates after other travels.
These are listed in order of departure from Krakow.
