Hello from Heiligenkreuz, Austria

This is my first attempt to blog about my experieces at Haus Edelweiss in Heligenkeuz, Austria. I am here on a mission trip working to support the needs of ministry students from former Soviet bloc countries in eastern Europe and Cental Asia. Today was a long but interesting day of orientation. I am working on the facilities maintenance crew and the evening dinner dishwashing crew. The days are long and tiring, but the people are great and you can't beat being in this wonderfully beautiful valley in the Vienna Woods. Tomorrow we have an outing to a castle on the Danube River. I should have pictures to share in the coming days. Monday the students arrive and things should get really busy. Tschuss (bye)
