The guest house has been quite lively last night and today. Two groups came in from the field on Friday afternoon, joining the one group that has been staying here all week. Now, two of those groups have left for the airport and the last one will be leaving soon. It has been very sad seeing them go, they have all been wonderful. We’ve had a group from Lover’s Lane UMC in Dallas, a group from Reynoldsburg, Ohio, and a group from Newtown, CT. I’ve had a wonderful time getting to know them all through site visits, dinner conversation, and evening game playing. Below is a picture of the group from Dallas hard at work with the Haitians.
It is hard to say goodbye, but I know I will stay in touch with many of them and see them some day in the future. And I look forward to continuing to meet new groups. We will have another come in tonight. I continue to have new experiences, I went with the Dallas group last evening down the street here to a local place for the debrief and this morning I climbed on top of the van to help them load their luggage. Each day brings something new!
