Warsaw, Thursday 9 May

We have had a great second day in Warsaw. Today we spent about six hours at Uniwersytet Kardynała Stefana Wyszyńskiego (UKSW), where Professor Entwistle and Professor Harris presented lectures to Polish students. After the lectures, we joined a class with the Polish students that we met yesterday and participated in interactive exercises designed by the students to help us better understand nonverbal communication skills. After a quick lunch, we explored the Polish culture through an elaborate Polish pottery shop. We had dinner at a kebob restaurant where we all tried new foods.  Having enjoyed a beautiful day with sunny skies, we returned to our hotel to debrief and to pray.  We are looking forward to traveling to the home town of Don and Betty Orr tomorrow morning.

When we were done at the churc
