After almost 24 hours of flying and driving, we finally made it here to Olomouc, Czech Republic. It is a city of around 100,000 people and when college students are here, around 120,000. It is like stepping back in time when you look around at the architecture and buildings. However, the culture is extremely progressive and liberal. In almost everyone's hand is a cigarette and beer bottle along with a closed view about God. Today, we walked the streets as most here do not drive cars within the city, they walk or use transport shuttles. So, we walked, prayed, and shared Christ with some college students at a coffee/cafe on the campus. The pic you see is from us climbing up 300 stairs in an old Catholic church building that was constructed back in 1412...I don't know how safe it was, but we made it. We are 6 hours ahead over here, so we are close to having dinner and go to a meeting with some college students and talk. Please keep praying as we leave on Saturday morning and time is going by quick...
