Here we are, the final frontier, with our two remaining teams in Turin and Hannover. Another team returned from Amsterdam. The final courageous students to tread the soil of Europe's cities and finish this epic fortnight of adventure, prayer and blessing. Our Amsterdam team did a late night prayer walk around the Red Light District and also ended up in a neighbouring city......
