SO HOT I can barely take it. Maybe it's because i'm pregnant? I'm not quite sure, but it definitely did not feel like this last year! And to top it off the wells are pretty much all empty. Many people here go to community wells, because they don't have their own water supply (including Anthony and I). Lord! Send the rain!!!!

Eric was already struggling with numerous health issues back home in America, and the weather here turned out to be his biggest nightmare. His body became overworked, causing him to pass out frequently and have to stay in our library where there are fan's and an air-conditioner. He wanted to stay and serve but things just continued to get worse. We prayed and prayed, but it seemed God had a different plan.
Like night and day.....the other man who came here with Eric, my good friend George, had a completely opposite experience. George was beaming with joy everyday as he met more and more people, allowing him to be open and share God's love. "Maabig a bulkas!" he'd shout out as we went down the street (which means good morning in Bolinao). Everyone knew his name. They all loved his excitement and his kind heart, which was Jesus flowing through him! It was a blessing to watch him interact with all the people.
So reality set in and in the end we all realized Eric needed to go home. The two men came here as a team, and they would leave as a team. The verse that continued to stand out to me over and over was Proverbs 16:9- In his heart a man plans his course, but the LORD determines his steps.
We are proud of them, will miss them dearly, keep praying for their journey's with the Lord and what lies ahead.


Below are some more pictures of the last place we went, a new location with about 50 kids! It was great.
God bless you all and thank you again for your love!!
