I didn't originally intend to post these addresses, but I don't think it's such a bad idea after all. It was 30 or 40 of the general sort of larger missions that I wrote to before I went to Vienna. Half of them didn't respond and most of them that did respond basically asked me if I was a spy or infiltrating their ranks or something. Only a couple responded at all rationally and one of them was the mission I went to Vienna with.
These mission were paranoid, really. So that was the world we were working in and I guess that's what I entered when I arrived in Vienna. At least that's one part, I guess of what might have been going on when I was there.

I think that's enough for this time. Isn't it amazing how much ministry was going on? And so much of it was hush-hush, right? But all these things were going on and people were doing all their various things and it all added up to quite an amazing amount of ministry when you think about it. I still have a lot to go.
