Rain & Meetings

Hi Everyone!

With people flying in from all over the Caribbean and even some from central America for the regional strategy/DTS conference, it is a good time to be on the base. Our campus is hopping with seasoned leaders who carry passionate vision to see nations changed along with young disciplers, zealous to serve and acquire adventures of their own. It's been super encouraging to see the veteran ywamers come together like a family reunion, reminiscing about the old days while strategizing like a team of expeditionists, mapping upcoming ventures. How cool to hear stories of God's faithful hand in crazy situations.

I've been meeting ywamers of all sorts, practicing my French with the Haitians and other islanders while brushing up on Spanish with Venezuelans and Dominicans. I'm thankful to be a part of all this and I have really become fond of this part of the world.

Kim (ywam director in Guyana) is here for a couple of weeks for this regional conference so she and Steve and I have had some productive and amusing meetings about the excitement ahead. I already have so much to tell you about the work in Guyana so stay tuned!

Other highlights include hanging out with my fabulous friend Amy who is visiting us as she recuperates from her work in Central Asia, playing basketball with the Haitians and dropping into a fresh water hole from a slippery swinging vine on our staff outing to Cranbrook.

Thank you for your love and prayers.
