Welcome night is over, my heels are off, and the Fall semester is officially underway! After five hours of running around in heels, I am finally home and unshod- with a great new class of students now filling the rooms of my house. I am thankful that the Lord has brought each of them here; tonight's aforementioned running around in heels actually included a late airport run for a delayed arrival, as a Canadian student was denied entry to the States for two days and finally got through this evening on her third attempt. Praise God she persevered! We are blessed to have all ten of our students, from the United States, Canada, Denmark, New Zealand, Norway, Scotland and Palau, now settled safely here in Maui with us for the next few months. On a lesser note, I am also blessed to have my heels off and be heading to bed...
