To the village
Today we loaded up to go out to a village. Along the way my team leader stopped to talk to a few of the children who he has build friendships with and literally watched "grow up." As we waited and watched him greet the young people with a hug, a smile, and a friendly greeting, we reflected on how much he and his wife have poured their lives into people here. It is rare they they go out and not see someone they know. They are willing to show love for the long-term and without strings attached. They faithfully share His love and the reason they have Hope. They are a huge inspiration to me. It's a blessing to serve alongside them.

It must be really neat to work alongside people who have been there so long! Slowly but surely, progress is made... good reminder. -Anna
:-) Thanks for leaving the comment Anna! You are also making progress. I enjoy talking with you each week as we learn to adjust to our new cultures.
