[Petros]

In about a week and a half I will be in the air to the other side of the world for an ordeal [the word originally meant "trial"] desuigned to see if I am competetent to do what I have spent my professional life doing. In three weeks I should be back, exhausted. Successful? Profited?

I and Herself and Number One Son will need all the prayer we can get.

[RMOlson]

I will be praying.
Father, thank you for “ordeals”! Thank you that you walk us through them. Make your presence known to Petroweski and his family as they walk through this one!

[Englishman]

I'm in too; please let us know how things are going.

Details to follow?

[natman]

10, 9, 8....

[Petros]

10 today, to be precise.

Details - I could give quite a lot, but it would only mess with my inner peace and acceptance.

Be it said: It has to be done. It may or may not save the organization AND the job I depend on. Nobody else can do it - thank God, I would really worry if everything depended on one of the others.

There is reason to believe that Caesar is confident I will slay my lion and expects to turn his thumb up. But behind Caesar is God, and I am counting on that.

Today:
Crackling speakers, voices tense
Resume the final count
All systems check, T minus nine
As the sun and the drama start to mount

I join in prayer for Pierre.

[c.o.]

Thank you, Lord.

Thank you, Neil, Geddy, Alex.

Every blessing, Petros.

[Maverick]

Thank you, Neil, Geddy, Alex.

Not to derail the topic here, but I knew you'd catch that.

[Petros]

They have been a favorite of Number 1 Musical Son, but I have not overheard enough to have recognized that.

NOT Neil Armstrong.

[Petros]

The count stands at 2. Bright and early Monday - at least good flying weather is promised.

Prayer is powerful. I feel weak.
