Our last full day...

Wow! What a wonderful last full day together! We woke up and spent the morning touring the US AID sponsored learning resource center. It was awesome! It was fun to learn about the work that is being done in Liberia via US AID. At the resource center any man, woman or child can come and study, use the internet, do research in the library, take classes, etc, all for free! It is a non profit where many men and women have dedicated themselves to educating those in the surrounding community. It is a wonderful place for James and his team to do contact work and meet kids and young adults!
We spent the afternoon walking through town and the busy marketplaces, then returning home to spend the evening with all of the Liberian YL leaders and staff. We played baseball on the beach, had dinner together and shared in worship and thoughts about the last 10 days. It was a bitter sweet evening, so happy to have had this time, but so sad to leave our brothers and sisters. We have been blessed by their love for us and their passion for reaching kids!

Philippians 1:3-6
I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus!
May He be Glorified!
