7 OUT and 7 IN

 

Last week we said goodbye to a team of 7 from MD.  Four members of the team were returning from last year.  What a change they saw in one year - 21 children and mothers, new buildings, new activities, new animals, etc.  We had a wonderful time with them.  On the same day that they left, a team of 7 arrived from WI.  Three of the members of this team were returning from the previous year.  They have entered in to helping and serving in the the Village.  We also welcomed the Maisonville family of 3 in the same week.  In talking with our children about this "in and out" of Aunties and Uncles, we have been using the opportunity to share about the family of God.  We are blessed to not only have our family here in the Village, but we get to meet and know members of the family from places far away.  It is a foretaste of the great banquet feast when we will all be gathered together to worship and praise the Lord.
