Gearing up to go

Our last few days in Baguio were spent being with those we've grown to love. Saturday night, our team enjoyed spaghetti and sticky rice at the home of Daniel and Josephine. Three of their daughters have blessed us with their delicious cooking while in Baguio. They've also washed heaps of our team's laundry.

Monday night we gathered with our friends for a time of worship and puppet shows of course. Maybe,just maybe, the last time of puppets for this outreach. We all laughed watching various videos of us taken throughout the last 5 months. It's is amazing the many experiences we have had!

Sadly, good-byes had to be said. Ladies we'll miss your cooking and your smiling faces. The girls will have to shadow someone else. Nolan and family, thanks for all your gracious hospitality. We're looking forward to hearing about your Crossroads. Most of all, Kevin and Becky...we are really going to miss all of you. I could go on and on but don't want to get the keyboard wet! Hope you boys are enjoying sleeping on those pink sheets. The bus ride was dull without all of you. We are staying in your room at Shalom. Hope you enjoyed your bucket showers - we sure enjoyed our HOT showers.

Kevin and Becky and their family will be staying in the Philippines at least until June. You can follow their adventure by clicking their link at the right - Full Quiver. (fullquiver8.blogspot.com) We pray God will bless their family.

As for us, we will leave for the airport in a little while. Our plane leaves in about 6.5 hours (around 5 pm Manila time). It is hard to believe it is time to go. We have learned much in our CDTS experience, but especially while we have been in the Philippines.

Grace,
Thomas and Lisa
