More travels
This past weekend we made a quick trip up to Delaware for the homecoming weekend at Greenwood Mennonite School. I was able to see a few of my old classmates and we were able to see and talk with a lot of old friends. The girls quickly tired of meeting so many new people but they had a lot of fun playing with their cousins. The kids are starting to adjust to traveling in car seats, but they would all still much prefer to do it Thai style (loose in the backseat of a taxi or on a train).
We drove back to Virginia on Sunday evening and then I left Monday for Columbus, Ohio, where I've spent the past two days teaching about cultural sensitivity and contextualization at the REACH training. I've been encouraged by the excitement and dedication of this group of young people and am really looking forward to working with the team that's going to Thailand.
Here are a few pictures of the weekend in Delaware...
