Good News/Bad News

Good News!
We've finished everything here in St. Petersburg. Tomorrow (Tuesday), Lily's international passport will be delivered along with 3 tickets to Moscow to finish the U.S. Embassy side. You would think that would be a snap, but there are still a few hoops to jump through even for the U.S. (sigh) In any event, we have been given the OK to travel home on Friday, the 28th. We are ecstatic... a whole week early... that is, until we got the bad news...
 
The Bad News!
There are no seats available on any Lufthansa flights between Friday and August 3rd. That can't be God! So, get you prayers ready folks, we gotta get the message to the airline that they do indeed have 3 seats for the Brown Family on Friday! I can't imagine the toll on Lily to languish in Moscow. Thanks in advance to everyone! Don't know how accessible a computer will be once we leave St. Petersburg... so keep us in your thoughts... and hopefully the next message you see here will be direct from my PDA .... over the ocean, on our way home!

Hi Irmgarde,

I have forwarded a prayer request for airplane seats for the Brown family on the 28th of August to my Meditation Group and our Prayer Team at Church. Please know that MANY thoughts and prayers are with you as you jump this last hurdle. Love & Prayers,

Sandi Pope

Irmegarde,

I had the same problem with the airline. Have someone call with your info from stateside. You will get an earlier flight if someone calls from the USA.
