We are back in the US in Colorado. Our final
days in South Asia were fruitful. The last group we worked with were excited to
get started planning for the training, but were obviously taken aback a bit by
our announcement that we would not pay for everything. Unfortunately, we are
rather unique in that but because we desire for the training to be replicated
at several levels we cannot pay for the first or they will not learn how to pay
for the other levels. This is always a difficult discussion because most
Americans just pay for everything. As we worked through it, they began to see
the reasoning and the biblical basis for our policy and I think it will work
out.
Our trip home was brutal with both of us
catching a 24-hour bug on the way. We arrived quite worn out and then had to
start the next day wiring our house here in Colorado. The builder was so late
in getting started that it has really messed things up for us. We are working
as hard as we can, jet lag and all, but I am not sure we will get everything
done before having to leave for Iowa for a training and then I will go on to
Africa. Please pray for our stamina and that the Lord will enable us to get
what we need to done.
