Greetings from Lithuania!

It's all over here but the packing!

The baccalaureate and commencement are over.  The farewell toasts
have been made.  The students, faculty, and newly minted alumni
go their separate directions.  So much has been learned, so much
accomplished in such a short space of time.

My students survived Finals Week.  It has been a little heart-wrenching
to have them come up to me and ask me if I'm staying for the Fall.
Not this year, but who knows?  Stranger things have happened to
me in the last six months than I've experienced before.  I have
been so blessed to know that for this time I was the right person
in the right place at the right time.

It has been a long semester, and all over too quickly.
I have enjoyed getting to know these students, teaching
and playing with them.  I wonder how much impact I could
have, and I might never really know in this lifetime at least.
God knows.

It's a short letter this week. 

I hope to see you or talkt to you all in a few short days, 
and to worship once again with my friends at Lakeview.

See you then,

In Christ,
David
