We were delayed a few weeks from going to India, so we decided to visit our friends in North Carolina. The trip was such a blessing of encouragement. Not only was it great to see all of our small group friends and friends from the places we worked, but it was great to have people get to meet Elijah and have them pray for us. Thank you God for a sweet time to get away, leave all we had left to do and be refreshed. Here's so pictures with our friends.
Everyone loves Ms. Nancy (above)! She is always joyful and such a help at Neal's old work place.
Charlie (above right) and his family were very hospitable opening their home and serving us taco soup, which Neal couldn't even tell there wasn't any meat in it! Now that was good soup...maybe I could make it in India.
John, Shelbee and sweet Jordan are always a joy to see. I'm always encouraged by Shelbee's sweet spirit and her love for others.
On our way back to Alabama we got to eat lunch with Trevor, one of Neal's friends from school. We always laugh a lot when Trevor's around.
Thank you God for a little more time in the states to rest and be encouraged!
We stopped in Asheville on our way to Wake Forest and got to see Mamaw for breakfast. She and Elijah had a wonderful time together!
Herb and Cathy were so sweet to let us stay with them! They opened their home for so many of our friends to come visit, such as Kitae, Yiyoung, and Ruah. Not only did they open their home, but Cathy always had some great meal ready for us and whoever the guess were. It was hard to believe that Ruah was almost a year old and this was our first time to meet - sad, but so much fun.
Kate, Rema, and Candie - gosh it was so good to see them. (It was weird not having Meredith there with us...I remember all the spontaneous dinners of burritos, movies, and prayers to get through school.) My heart rejoiced so much spending time with these girl, some of my dearest friends.
