This has been an amazing trip once again. Each year I visit the experience is a little different and this year is no exception. Unfortunately my sciatica back pain decided to act up just before the trip. At times the pain is pretty intense so I haven't been able to work as much. But now I am experiencing the trip from a different angle. I am quietly observing the love in action from my team. Serena, Megan and Adam playing with the children and taking them to the river for a bath with body soap, not dish soap. Aaron and Emily working on the windows and doors that will provide security at night and allowing the breeze to enter the house during the day. Nick, John and Paula working together creating the frame that will provide strength and support to the home. Mike and Tony helping put up the concrete walls that will help protect them from the elements and provide security. Frank and Nelsy interpreting for us allowing us to interact with the family and children. God is using each of our talents and gifts for His glory.
There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work. (1 Corinthians 12:4-6 NIV)
