Weihnachtsmarkt

Changing Seasons

Gusts of wind swirl through the city, and the first sting of winter can be felt in Vienna. We had our first "taste" of snow a few weeks ago, but weren't quite ready to say goodbye to the fall. Chandelers are now suspended above the bustling city streets, and we eagerly await the warmth from their glow. The Weihnachtsmarkt (Kristkindlemarkt) will open in a few days, and we are ready to kick off the holiday season! As we cherish the last few weeks abroad, we look forward to celebrating stories and adventures soon with our friends and family back home.

Going...going...almost gone!

Much like we were warned, the weeks have flown by since we returned from Italy! As everyone trickles in from their exciting adventures over fall break, we are gearing up for the last few weeks of our semester abroad. Students have been weaving "practical" experiences into "classroom learning", and we have been blessed to witness their growth as they soak up the rich culture and history surrounding them. We are incredibly grateful for all of the prayers and support! We love you all!
