Day Forty Nine: Debrief

Team Sherpa has been reunited! Hurray! The Hampi team surprised us by getting here about eight hours sooner than expected and barging in on our morning devotional time. It was a joyous day and we spent a lot of time sharing stories from the last week and were all very encouraged by the fact that God has so richly blessed our decision to split up last week.
We're still on Om Beach, surprise! (None of the other locations that Nicki, Gabriel and I were checking into worked out so our top-secret debrief location turned out to be right here!)
Today and tomorrow we're having our official "outreach debrief" time. So basically we're attempting to process everything that we've gone through in the last couple of months. It's good to look back over the good times and the bad and see God's hand at work through all of it. Our desire is to see lasting change come out of our time here. Not only in the lives of the people that we've been witnessing to but in our own lives as well.
On Sunday, Lord willing, we'll head up to Mumbai where we'll be spending a little bit more time than expected so that Kaison can figure out his passport details. The rest of us will probably help out at an orphanage that some of Anthony's friends have been working at for a while.
Then, Wednesday at 1:00 am we begin the long journey back to New Zealand for our final week of debrief.
