Safely home

Hi all,

I'm sitting here in my parents' house in Conway, Arkansas. Wow. Just a few hours ago I was drinking espresso at a cafe in Zurich, thinking back over a year in Africa and looking forward to the familiar-yet-strange world of America. Now I'm here. I wanted to write a quick note to let you all know that I made it back safely. With just minutes to spare, I made all of my connecting flights. I arrived back in Little Rock around 8 p.m. last night. Tommy and I said goodbye to Charlie in Zurich, then the two of us flew to Paris while he flew to Copenhagen. Then Tommy and I flew together to Atlanta, went through customs together, and said goodbye as I boarded my next flight.

What a year!

I hope to see and/or talk with as many of you as possible this summer. If you have questions about the trip, feel more than welcome to ask. I'd love to talk about it.

Thank you so much, again, for your loving support this year. We could not have done it without your help.

Under God's mercy,

Wes
