Wow...basically 3 months since the last update. So, bullet points it is!
- Took the senior class to Croatia.
- Enjoyed a great grad ceremony with an amazing Salutatorian address by Nicholas Hamm.
- Our second year at ICSV ended well, but lots of hard good-byes to friends and students.
- Flew to America with 3 mostly empty suitcases to spend the summer with family, friends, supporters.
- Michael spent a week in Monterey for an AP European History conference
- We were able to visit Apple Valley Baptist (twice), 1st Lutheran Long Beach, and St. Paul's Orange
- Family vacation at the Welk resort with ALL the members of the Johnstone side of the family
- Lots of food...
- Flew back to Vienna with 4 completely filled suitcases
- Destroyed by jet lag (took a full week to recover)
- Welcomed new staff (Michael made 8 airport runs in the course of 10 days)
- Helped newbies get settled by taking them to get registered in Austria, helped them shop, set up internet accounts, and introduced them to the city of Vienna.
- Welcomed our niece Emily to Vienna....she's staying with us until December
- BBQ'd 55 kilos of ribs for a staff welcome back party
- Back to school meetings and orientation
- BBQ'd 105 Burgers for teachers from the association of Austrian Christian Schools (mostly Austrian elementary schools)
- First day of school...
- Justin started 7th grade
- Emily is in 11th grade
- Rebecca back at ICSV, now as co-head of Student Ministries and Activities
- Michael teaching Ancient World History, AP European History, Social Studies dept chair, and co-head of Student Ministries and Activities
- BBQ'd 125 burgers for first Coffeehaus event of the school year
So...these are just the highlights, but it has been a very busy couple of months. We're are very excited about the great things that God is doing here through all the new staff and leadership at the school.
Now that we've got you all caught up, stay tuned for more posts about how God is working at ICSV and here in Vienna!
