We had a two-hour testimony service this morning, and it was neat to see all the different perspectives on the week. Everyone had a different story to tell about their experiences. This afternoon we went to the market - because people aren't spending, the vendors are virtually dragging people into their stores and booths. We boarded the bus and headed for customs. After a few had gone through, the border guard simply said, "Are you with the church group?" When we said yes, he simply waved us through without checking our bags or belongings. As soon as we boarded the bus, the lightning and rain started.
After a big dinner, we are about to start our last service here. We will leave as close to 5 AM as possible, and we will be staying in Bossier City, Louisiana overnight. Parents, your teens will have their cell phones, so feel free to call anytime between now and our arrival back home. We hope to arrive home at a decent hour Saturday night, but we will take whatever time we need to ensure that we arrive safely. We will keep you apprised as to when we expect to make it home.
You should be very proud of your young people - for this long of a trip, this young of a group, and a very high set of expectations, they all behaved themselves very well. Hopefully God has touched their hearts in a way this week that they will not soon forget.
