Before we left for Oenpelli, I had no idea of where I was going.  With strangers telling us of how horrible Oenpelli was, we didn’t know what to expect.  
 
Bugs.
Filth.  
Danger.  
Bugs.  
Laziness.
Violence.

Bugs.
Cheeky dogs (more on this later).
 

These are the things we expected to find.  While we did find most of these, I was in awe of what else we found in this town.

Beauty.
Glory.
 

I can’t recall another time in my life that I was so enthralled with God’s creation, amongst such rubbish.  Along with my team, I don’t believe that it is an accident that God surrounded Oenpelli with heaps of His glory.  I’d even venture to say it was all part of His plan…

So many times when I wondered where the Lord was this past month… then I’d glance up, and there He was.  Take a look and see what I mean…
