Sunday morning after taking the kids to the bus stop at 7 AM and still half asleep from only getting 3 hours of sleep I went back to my place and began finished packing up my room. I let Dona Lutrecia that I would be out on Dec. 1 to move to Candelaria to keep from paying rent for December, and with Sunday night service this was my only time. I really wanted to sleep, but instead I got everything I've collected in 10 months of living there into 4 trunks, 3 moving boxes, and 3 suitcases. Sergio used the mission truck and helped me load the bed and back seat of it completely full and drive my stuff 2 blocks to the Barnum's house.
Tommy shared from Hebrews about faith in God in Sunday night service, and Jennifer Hunter sang How Great Thou Art acapella dueting with Ben on the refrain. We closed the service with Susan and Jessalyn saying their goodbyes and Jessalyn praying over the youth group. It was a well attended service and Daniel shared some new worship songs too.
We came back and had dinner together and said our goodbyes to Susan and Jessalyn with them leaving at 5:00 AM Monday morning for the airport. It was great to see the friendships and fun they brought to the village and the software training for our NewSong staff.
The Gables left Monday morning with the Hunters for a 3 day vacation/trip to the mountains, so without the truck I only took as much as Carlos and I could get in the taxi and bus of my stuff to Candelaria. Carlos will went back to Leon at 6:00 after drama/dance practice and I will be staying out here until Thursday evening. The house is not done, but I can lockup my belongings in the bodega and shower in the clinic.
