on saturday i'm flying west....
chialphastan has been debriefing the past two days, and we finish tomorrow. we made a list of all the people we as a team have ministered to in one way or another... we came to 850 - not including the Christmas concerts (which would add about another 1000 - maybe a few more). That includes - One More Friend (U ministry), Orphanages, Hope Academy (MK/International School), MK retreat in Turkey, friends from around Bishkek ... wow what a year.
It has come up a few times in debrief that some wish it would have been two years.
The strangest thing will be when Chialphstan begins to leave on Thursday - we have become like family.
We had a great service at church today - Chialphastan & Summerstan led worship (in Russian of course), Scott spoke, and then the pastors and church leadership had our team come up one at a time to pray for and bless us.
I will miss this church and the people here so much.
over the next 5 days:
- debrief
- clean the Bible College
- Little League All Star Game at the field
- Little League Closing Ceremonies at the College
- packing
- goodbyes
- debrief Summerstan
- cleaning the apartment
- finish editing songs
- burn One More Friend worship cd's
- pray over and dedicate the new One More Friend Student Center
- more goodbyes
- thanking God for the privilege and honor to be here
