We left San Jose, Costa Rica at about 9 am yesterday. After 1 bus, 2 planes, a shuttle and a church van, we pulled up in front of the house in Rome, GA at about midnight. When you factor in the time difference, it was only a 13 hour travel day. 13 hours that brought us screaming back to…home? …reality? …life? …normalcy? Is this a dream or were the last 11 months?
I’m not really sure what normal is anymore. I’ve enjoyed flushing TP without having to wonder about the pipes. I got my Chick-Fil-A chicken sandwich. And we even celebrated a year’s worth of holidays that I missed while traveling around the world! But I have to confess that I’m a little bit bored. I’m not exactly sure what to do with myself.
I’m excited to have the next month to begin processing everything that’s happened over this past year and I’ll be able to post some of that here. I’m also excited to let you all know what the Lord has next for me with the Race. Look for that info in the next couple of weeks.
In the meantime, I cannot thank you enough for all the ways you have supported me on this journey! I hope you know how much the Lord has used you to change the nations for Him. I can’t wait to see you all and share stories with you in person!
When you sponsor a child it not only provides a hot meal, clean water, discipleship, and basic medical care for the child, it also supports their family by inviting them through the gates of the CarePoint to receive training, discipleship and mentorship.
