Preparing To Leave

Out of chaos…..

 

Comes order….

I didn’t realize how scattered all my sewing stuff was in this two room apartment until I gathered it all up from under the bed, in the corners, and behind the recliners and dumped it all on the couch in the “big living room.”  I sorted, discarded (yes I did discard some stuff I promise!), folded, and found spots for all of it.  Now it waits to be packed into the car for the journey later this week.

Friday morning after breakfast we will head for home after four months here at UMCOR Sager Brown.  This is obviously the longest mission trip we’ve ever done but I can honestly say it has been the best.  We have fallen in love with this mission, meaning the place, and with the mission, meaning the work.  We have made friends who have become our family away from home and who have worked with us, prayed with us, and laughed with us.  We have done work that changes peoples lives for the better.  And God smiled on us as a parting gift this weekend.  How beautiful is His work!
