9-The Day of Departure

I don't like saying goodbye. Though the hugs I receive are sincere, it saddens me to leave these people behind. I find it interesting that some of the people I find myself sad to leave are people I have only known for about 5 months, the length of time I will be in Bolivia. God bless you, my Canadian friends!

Today, I will be driving from Caronport to Regina with my mom, and we'll stay in a hotel for the night. We have to be a the airport at 5:30am, so we figured leaving the night before would likely be the wisest choice with the possibility of poor road conditions. And if we went to Regina with intentions of going straight to the airport, we would have to wake up at 3:30am, which we really don't feel like doing... So this is the best option.

I'm not sure how much I'll be able to keep in contact with everyone during my travels, but in the meantime...

Please pray for:
-Safe travels by both car and plane.
-That God will give me the ability to speak Spanish to the people in Bolivia, whether by studies or by His spontaneous power, as in Acts 2 5-12.
-Pray that my heart will be completely open to whatever God has for me.

  1. Your delay in Canada until after Christmas was such a blessing to me. I'm sure it was just as much a blessing to Mom. I am honoured to have been there when you bought your Apple computer. I am delighted by our theological conversations. And hanging around with you after not seeing you for so long ministered to my heart. So, I praise the Lord for your delay.
