So, my wedding ring is not prodigal in the true sense of the word, but my ring did leave me.  Right after we picked up the BIOLA team from the airport and brought them back to the ministry office one of my colleagues, Bogdan, threw a huge snowball in my face.  Immediately the snowball fight / wrestling match started.  After I destroyed him and threw him into the snow (in a loving way) I walked inside the ministry center and took off my jacket.  It was then that I noticed that both my rings were missing from my hands.  So the team and our staff spent the next 2 hours trenching and searching through the snow for my rings.  We only found one of my rings but not the most important one, my wedding ring.  We even tried boiling water and throwing it on the snow to melt it faster.  It felt like one of the worst days of my life and I thought my ring was a goner. But praise God after about one week and a half one of the BIOLA team members found my ring! I couldn’t believe it.  It was so excited that I wanted to give the team member that found my ring a great reward..... A chocolate McSundae from McDonalds.
