Time has really really flown! I can't believe it's my last day here! But God is perfect! I mean absolutely perfect! Everything He does is incredible and good and His timing never ceases to amaze me. This trip was just what I needed. I think it's so easy to get stuck in in the structured way of doing things, but once again God has shown me that I have to go with the flow and let Him lead and put my plans and good desires aside. Like yesterday, I really wanted to take this girl to get a massage as she has never had one and my heart was just saying do it. I emailed her and she said yes and then I found it the timing wasn't going to work, but Michael made it happen! Of course I already had promised someone that time, but that feeling wouldn't go, so I said ok, let's do it. And it was perfect. I got to share with her about God and it was great but coming back - 3-3.5 hours later than planned I asked Michael to go via the beer gardens and slow down as we get there so I can take pictures. Well, we slowed down and for some reason Michael had taken his helmet off. I thought this was not a good idea cause I didn't want anyone to recognize him for later and cause trouble, but because he did it, B - our old student saw him and recognized him and approached him. I was sooo happy to see one of my old favorite students!!! So he is now working at a beer garden as the head usher or manager or something - all dressed up in a suit. Of course I am sad he stopped studying because he is soooo smart and so nice and sweet, I wanted to give him a scholarship to medical school in the future, but... BUT we talked to him and he is going to talk to the 60 girls who work there and see if they want to come to english class! YAY!!!! is God good or what. The one thing that has made me sad on my return is that the center is no longer there. Michael's classes consist of poor people but not of the girls that I so want to reach. Mary and her sister are the last ones. Part of me was just sad that that whole thing has died and I was trying to convince myself maybe it is time for something new, but that sadness wouldn't go away. Then last week I got to talk to this man who works at the rhea's center and he said he and his wife would be interested in helping and they could maybe get other women to help as well! So YAY! God put together the team and now it looks like He is going to provide the people again as well! And with the Rhea's starting the work they are, then we can train them for jobs as well! All together! God is perfect in all that He does!
Also the research project that Michael wants to do... We met someone, a friend of Deelan's and he said it's a great idea and he will get us into the homes of the girls so we can talk to them and interview them! YAY! God is perfect in all that He does!
So my trip here was wonderful and fantastic! I am just soooo happy! :) For all of you who pray for us and support us even by thinking about us, thank you soooo much for helping us help these women.
Oh, also, I did my video shoot with Javier yesterday and so we are going to get a donation video! and with the center starting, maybe he can shoot some stuff there as well! YAY!
