Yes, it's all set.

"Dorothy and I would very much like to host your visit and show you our hospitality personally," Henry Dicks told the Chinese couple at the other end of the video link from Bryan Carlson's office. "Did the Exchange help you get the travel dates set up?"

"Yes, the dates we were hoping for. All they need is a word from you," Peter Dong said.

"We'll do it today," Henry said.

Dorothy smiled and said, "Reverend Dong, the congregation is looking forward to your visit. It's a blessing to have a personal reminder that our faith in love is spreading over the world." She squeezed her husband's hand, and he squeezed back.

"We are looking forward to sharing love and faith with you," Peter said.

"Very much," Irene Dong added.

"Everything's set, then," Henry said.

"Yes, when you tell the Exchange, our travel plans will be firm," Peter said.

"Let us pray together for God's love and grace for your journey," Henry said.

The two couples each stood, husband and wife close and clasping hands, as they bowed their heads to pray on the opposite sides of the video link.

"Amen", they all said together.

Irene laughed.

"What's funny, Irene?" Dorothy asked.

"It is just that, every time we pray like this, two couples together?" Irene began. "It is when we are going to share neighborly love."

Dorothy laughed. "That's just about right," she said. "Same with us." She put her hand on the front of Henry's pants. "Henry's ready!"

Henry bowed his head sheepishly. "I have to confess that's true," he said.

Irene put her hand on the front of Peter's slacks. "It is true for my husband as well!"

"Should we let you get to bed, then?" Henry asked.

"Oh Henry, we don't have to be shy," Dorothy said. "Unless you do have someone there waiting for you to share with, Peter and Irene? We would not want to keep you waiting."

Irene gently caressed the front of her husband's slacks.
