Tomorrow's our last day???????

Our time in India has gone way too fast! Although we miss all of you, we are dreading the goodbyes we will say to our new camp friends tomorrow.  For you mission trip alums, you know the dreaded last goodbye and the resulting tears!

We continued our camp program today with teachings on Jesus as our Provider, our Teacher, and our Healer.  The team did a super job and the skits were great!  The Indian children are so eager to perform their songs and dances for us as well.  Perhaps the most beautiful sound this morning were voices joined together singing, "I could sing of Your love forever" in English and Telegu.  Courageous and sweet American teenagers who gave up their spring break to serve and the precious Indian children so grateful to be held and loved created an amazing melody...some sappy people might have actually cried while they were videotaping :).  As trip leaders, it is difficult to communicate in words how blessed we are by this team!

As we shared together in devotion tonight, it became apparent that the theme was, "I am not the same," as students shared how God has changed them on this trip.  What an amazing time we have had together!  This will probably be our last posting from India as we have a full day tomorrow with camp and a little shopping before we head to the airport to begin our journey back to America tomorrow night.

Our hearts are full!
