HELD HOSTAGE!!

Sorry, but this will be a short update today, just to get everyone up to speed on our schedule for coming home.

Currently, we are being 'held hostage' here in Ukraine. We have been at the mercy of some very incredulous and insensitive gov't people, who just don't "feel" like doing their jobs and processing our paperwork in a timely fashion. One woman actually said, "I just don't feel like doing it today"!!! What should have taken two days, we are now going on 5 days and counting.

So, where once we had a week buffer and were thinking of coming home early, we are now barely going to make our original schedule, and are in jeopardy of overshooting that.

Please pray for favor for us these next two days. They are key to us getting out of here.

Victor,

We almost had a similar issue when we went to get passports. I believe a "Processing Fee" was agreed upon. Don't sweat it. You will get home.
