Habia un sapo sapo sapo...

I am home from Peru...

and I have felt like crying (but I can't stop smiling either) ever since I hugged my leaders at the airport, but the tears have yet to come. I feel like my team has been my family and closest friends for the past month, and now we will never be together as a whole team again. It is hard being alone right now. I just want someone to tell everything about the trip. My family doesn't really want to hear everything...just some of it.

I will try to write more about it later, and include some of my journal entries from the trip too.

But, the abridged version will have to suffice for now.

The Amazonia screams God's glory. The sky is breath-taking 24 hours a day, the water, the jungle, the animals, the people are all just incredible. I will miss the simplicity of the people there. They would love if I just talked to them all day, helped them smash tree nuts, washed their underwear, or just laugh with them. It was awesome when God healed people through me, and when people understood God's love for them...but, one of the most beautiful things I could do for the people was just to make them smile. I will miss being schooled by the little kids in soccer. I will miss swimming in the Amazon to wake up and watch the sunrise. I will miss worshipping God with my brothers and sisters under the incredible sky at night. God worked in Peru. He changed the lives of Peruvians. He changed the lives of my gringo family.
But, he is working here as well. If you let him use you, He will do incredible things through you.

(Please call me. I am not enjoying being alone. I want to tell you what happened. I really just want to be around people)
