This is a big week for Campus Crusade here in Budapest. Being a missionary community with a large number of expats, many of our staff are gone for the summer. Some return to the US to see family, fund raising and general R&R. Others are on summer projects out in one of our 19 countries. Others, like me, are mostly in the office, and on a couple of ministry trips.
All that to say tha things are different in the summer and a lot of people are gone. All that changes this week. Everyone is back and the new ministry year gets underway. We have two all day meetings and a golf tournament this week. Next week is an entire week of all day meetings. In that past, I would just need to show up at these meetings and it isn’t too much of a deal. In my new role, I am the coordinator of most of them. This is very different. Today will be a crazy day since I’ve been out of town for a week and I still have to do a ton of work on the first major meeting on Tuesday.
We’ll see if I have time to blog. Don’t be surprised if it is another month before you hear from me.
