So many goodbyes this week. And so much change.
We waved goodbye to Henk and Margreet on Monday. Unexpectedly we said goodbye to Roxanne when her ship announced they were leaving a day early, then said hello to her again when Marine canceled any ship travel because of weather. Much has been written about saying goodbye and all of the grief that accompanies change.
We've learned that the Kosco plans to leave on Saturday night, so we've bumped up our timetable. It's gonna be a close one, folks. Soon after we leave, so many people that we love will also leave SITAG to return to their passport countries. We want to say goodbye well. And we know we will get to say hello again.
We're nurturing the whole person, making sure to take time for exercise, playing together, making good food choices, worshiping together, and reading our Bibles. Listening to this song on repeat to remind me of where I get my strength.
