My UM
My promise to write about our pilgrimage has to wait. Life goes on immediately and other things have to be told also. First of all has our eldest child, who is 13, travelled all alone by plane from Copenhagen to Prague to attend a course at the Townshend International School in Hluboka (Czech Republic). Since the pilgrimage (which changes people) I have felt secure that all would go well. And I am really proud of my girl. She packed everything herself in her favorite red suitcase, her teddybear included. This age between 12 and 15 is really wonderful: they are still children but at the same time rather grown-up and they are so ... going! Some tears had to be shed when she departed from me at Copenhagen Airport. She travelled as an 'Unaccompanied Minor' (UM) so she would have assistance all the way.
And today we received some guests with the same nationalities as us: Swedish and Dutch and had a nice time together.
Whoops, while I was writing an email from the Townshend School dropped in. Here a short part from the letter:
No commentsThey came by plane. They came by train. They came by car. And when they arrived the "future champions of the Cause of God and builders of His civilization" (2007 Ridvan Message) embraced one another and the community of TFP with all the purity and vigour of their hearts. The "precious treasure" (2000 Ridvan Message) are here and safe and making each other happy.
