Sigh, how many times have these posts started out with “It’s very late?”
It is late.. Lights out ended half an hour ago. The permutations of this trip are so great. As the days have rolled on, we continue to ask ourselves “why are we here?”
Not because we don’t understand that we’re here to Serve God. Not that we don’t understand that we’re here to build homes… but we constantly are evaluating how we get to interact with those around us.
Tonight, we had the opportunity to break bread with those we’ve co-labored with. What started out in year 1 as a simple outing for BBQ, has turned into a nice tradition to dine with those we work with.
It was nice to get to know them at a more familiar level, but also to hear about their personal lives and keep them in our prayers. They’re doing a difficult work with the rebuilding effort, and we want to be part of their support.
We’ll have more photos of them and more from today…. Hopefully we’ll be able to make captions soon to make sense of them. Thanks for your patience..
