Day 141: Saying Adios to Playa
It’s hard to describe what we’re feeling tonight as we pack for our late afternoon flight tomorrow. It is a mixture of sadness and joy. Sadness to be leaving dear friends who have welcomed us into their hearts and homes for the past almost five months and joy to be heading toward another church we similarly left ten years ago, when we moved away from CA.
Sometimes God allows a church to open their arms, their hearts, and their homes to strangers on a journey…and blesses them richly as they leave not as strangers but as friends and family! Thanks to all of you at Lighthouse Church and our Spanish School for making us family. We love you all and will miss you tremendously, but will not say good-bye, as we hope to one day see you all again! XOXO
