transition--transition! transition! (to the tune of "tradition" from fiddler on the roof)

A big thing that's happening this year is that the evangelism team is changing. Mel and Amy are heading up a team of people within Josiah Venture to focus on intensively on missionary care. This is super cool, because Mel and Amy are incredibly gifted at caring for people and creating a healthy team. And, this is super needed: the JV team has gained about 100 new missionaries in a few short years. Unfortunately, this also means that they won't be heading up Czech English camps anymore...it's been sad for us (esp Lucka and Romana and I) to realize that we won't have the constant contact with them in the camp office like we're used to. *sigh* So what's happening is that Brad came last winter, Nate came this summer, and Greg will be coming in the winter and they, together with us and Trev and Cass, are the evangelism team. We all have different responsibilities, and Nate is our team leader. So, it's like...I dunno, it's good, I'm excited, but it's totally bittersweet*.

WE LOVE YOU MEL & AMY!!!
