Back Home

We made it home safely yesterday-Poyang in Taiwan, Korina in Spokane, Jen in Oregon, and Holly and I in Seattle! We all miss our surrogate family (Barry and Michelle Marshall and their three kids) dearly, but it does feel good to be out of the humidity and enjoy some of that Seattle sunshine. Our trip exceeded any expectations and we have felt the Lord's love transform us over the last two months. Thank you again to everyone who has been praying for us; we can cerrtainly attest to the power of prayer with how blessed we were on our trip. And thank you to my teammates, I miss you guys something fierce, and cherish the permanent bond between us.

I pray that the other deputation teams return safely and enjoy their remaining time. I can't wait to trade stories at our Debrief in September!

In Him,

Paul

Paul, You're the man. Team Philippines, you guys rock the house. It's been so great to hear your stories over these last few months. I hope I can make it to the retreat to see all of you face to face. Praise the Lord for his traveling mercies to see all of you safely home! Enjoy this next month and a half before school starts. It's a great time to reflect on your time and learn all the more of God's providence on your trip. PG, PG. Again, great to hear from you all and hope to see you soon! In the Lord Jesus, Brother Mac
