Leaving Manila...









Leaving Manila was quite bittersweet...

It seems like when a place has become your home for so long leaving isn't as sad because you KNOW these people will be in your future. We've spent so many hours of laughter, then trials and then joy that disconnecting with them was out of the question... leaving was really more of a see you later!

The Lord has been so faithful in teaching us numerous lessons during our stay. Listing would almost be tedious. The next step is coninuing to stay open to learn just as much in the States and using the lessons we can as we venture home.

Needless to say we're excited we're on our way home!
OUr next stops are:
Singapore
Thailand
India
Dubai
France
Spain
Portugal
Morocco
Switzerland
Italy
Greece
Czeck Republic
Croatia
Germany
UK
(if we can make it to all these places)

Thank you for your continued prayers for Ellen. She is currently recovering from surgery and is thankful to be out of the hospital with all cancer removed.
