Just a Quick One

We're here and settled into the whirlwind of this week. Just a couple of quick, mostly personal thoughts. First, it doesn't seem to matter how many times I try, I just cannot like an El Salvadorian breakfast. Second, fireworks that go off all night with no opportunity to let me (or many others) sleep,  are really not that festive. Third, God finds new ways to touch my heart every time I am here. He is just so amazing that way.

Travel Day


Just a quick note to say thanks to the very many of you who have been praying for us on this travel day. 3 hours driving, 3 hours in the airport, 5 hours flying, 1 hour in the airport, 1 hour driving and we're here!

It's exciting to be part of a team that has 7 new people. The multi-generational mix is awesome. Another reminder of the amazing work God is doing with our church family!

Tonight we rest, tomorrow, we begin our discovery of what the Lord has to teach us, as individuals, as a team and as a church.

Our devotion tonight was from Philippians 2; a reminder about the need to carry a correct attitude and the need to empty our preconceptions and North American-scheduled minds while listening, looking and learning for the people God will use to teach us about Himself and His great love. That's a voyage, we've been preparing for, so here we go….thanks for joining us…
