“Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you.” (Ephesians 4:32)

Good morning from the ATL!  As they say, “the best laid plans of rats and cats can get messed up big time!”  Lisa and I did arrive at our destination late last night which is what we expected.  The problem is that we were in an Atlanta hotel and not one in Las Vegas.  What went wrong?  The better question may be “what did not go wrong?”  We obviously missed our connecting flight in Atlanta.  Folks, when you have like twenty minutes upon landing before your connecting flight departs then every second counts especially when you are at the very end of the D concourse and you have to go to the very end of the A concourse.  So, when the gate agent takes like nine minutes and maybe one dozen attempts to get the jet bridge up to the plane then you are doomed.  I literally ran and the gate agent in concourse A had literally just shut the door.  When she finally returned to the gate she was about as unfriendly as a person can be – certainly not a good representation of Delta Airlines.  (I did not mention the gender of the Delta employee driving the jet bridge.  Being kind!)

So, we went to the SkyClub in concourse A and Shirley was very friendly, kind and helpful.  She rebooked us and then gave us a voucher for a hotel room.  Of course, we had nothing with us as everything was in our checked luggage (which did make it to LAS last night).  Lisa looks good regardless of the situation but me on the other hand. . .

Lisa will miss the morning session of the convention.  Nothing we can do about that.  We just hope this morning’s flight is without problems.  Our luggage misses us and cannot wait for us to get to LAS.

No updates on the folks mentioned yesterday.  Just keep praying.

I assume the senior adults arrived to their destination safe and sound.

Regular schedule tomorrow morning and evening.

I pray that you will have a great Tuesday with Jesus.
