Shillong Christmas Party



Last night we had a Christmas party for all 25 staff that are here in Shillong right now. Two sessions of Mission Adventures are starting on Monday, and so this was the best time in December for us to celebrate. We sang a bunch of Christmas carols and ate a lot of food and laughed a tremendous amount. I made some butter chicken, salad and a bunch of cookies. We all had a really good time.
My friend Sunny, from South Korea, decorated a little tree and put up a lot of Christmas things all over the classroom. Many people cooked and hung up lights, it was a true labor of love. We are all from different countries, states, and tribes, but last night, it felt like we were amongst family.
