Latvia team report Saturday July 18, 2015

Lots of delicious food at breakfast, prepared by our hosts and at 930 we are shuttled off for a visit to a nearby 16th century landmark - Bauskas Pils (Bauskas Castle).  We learned much about Latvian history and the  great love these already dear friends have for their homeland's unique story.  After a scrumptious lunch in Bauska we headed back to Sloka and had just enough time to freshen up and go to the church for a  concert by their choir.  We also met members of a contingent from LCMS Headquarters in St Louis who were in Latvia for a visit to the various churches here.  Between the trip and the concert we had just enough time to unpack the 8 suitcases filled with the supplies you have provided - yes EVERTHING arrived safely except Kevin's personal suitcase.  It did arrive by later this afternoon.
