I made it safe to Orenburg :) It is nice and chilly here in Russia. I think it is about 15 degrees right now, but with the wind chill it feels even colder. We had dinner last night at almost 1 a.m. Russian time, and by the time we got settled in it was pretty late. I was in bed by around 2:30 a.m. which is equivalent to 9:30 p.m. Polish time. This whole 5 hour time change is pretty rough on the body when you are only going to be here for about 24 hours.
We woke up to have breakfast at 9:15 a.m. which is 4:15 a.m. Polish time. We were all pretty tired this morning, but that is to be expected. We had shoot around at 12:00 p.m. and then had lunch at 2:40 p.m.
Tonight we play against Orenburg at 7:00 p.m. which is 8:00 a.m. EST. You may be able to check the game out at this link below:

I am not 100% sure, but I am thinking that you can. Well, that is all for now. It is nap time for me before we head to the game here in a little bit. I will try to blog later. The internet in this hotel is very slow, so I am lucky I was able to post a picture and write this.
Please be in prayer for a friend of mine who currently plays for the Liberty Women's Basketball team. Her mom passed away yesterday of a heart attack. I know the family as well as this girl have to be in shock. I am praying for comfort and peace for the family that only the Lord can provide.
Psalm 73:25-26
"Whom have I in heaven but You?
And there is none upon earth that I desire besides You.
My flesh and my heart fail;
But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever."
God bless,
