The enthusiasm and warm hospitality of the Compassion staff here has simply increased our enthusiasm for getting to the church and Compassion project.
Our Compassion host, Marty, shared with us that if a child receives just one letter from their sponsor each year, their academic performance improves 12%. The letters we write our sponsored children do really get there, and are very important.
Everyone is healthy and got a pretty good night of sleep last night.
Were off to catch our flight. Don't know when well be able to write again. Were back in Kolkata next Saturday, so it might not be until then.
Thank you for your prayers!
The Colombian team made it back safe and sound; some were tired, all were profoundly blessed and gratified. Dios le bendiga!

Great posts! Wonderful to hear how God works. You have our sympathy on the "300 mile roller coaster...". OK, major guilt ... we will definitely write more often to our sponsored children.
ReplyDeleteWe miss you all. Heath preached an awesome message Sunday. We have an amazing team of pastors at Woodlands!!
Praying for you,
