Busy, busy, busy!

Wow, I can't believe it's been this long since we've blogged. Time has just seemed to fly by! We leave Trinidad tomorrow at around noon. The time here has been incredible. . . More than I ever expected. The friendships we have made here will last forever. Frey, Ruffo, Pippo, Stephen, Ruddy, Carlos Hugo, Yosimi, Yosi, Ruth, Ana, Julia, Justa, Nancy, Celeste, Mary Triny, Diego, Bebicha, Delila, Amelia, Erika, Belin, Carla, Guiden, Emmanuel, Grecia, Sheril, Ruth, Milton, Tio Eddy, Juanchiny, David . . . I could go on and on and these are just some of the people I've met and know well . . . all of the others have people that they connected with on a deeper level as well. Last night we had our farewell party and it was really a nice way of saying goodbye to a lot of our friends here. They sung us a song, we sunged them a song: He's got the whole world in His hands with Andrew playing the flute. We danced with them, we all had a chance to say something about our time here and some of them said some very nice things about us. Then they layed their hands on us and prayed with us. It was incredibly powerful! What a party! I can feel God's love so prevalent in this place! We have mixed feelings of sadness and excitement as we get ready to leave. It is sad to say goodbye to all of these great friends but at the same time we can be so thankful for the friendships that we have formed. We will miss Bryce and Andrew as we continue onto the touristy part of our trip, but we are excited for the adventures ahead! Thanks for all your prayers and support! God bless you all and I hope we can keep you updated on things.
