the seasons are changing
The picnic to Cherapunjee was a hit and a much needed refreshment for everyone involved. I didn't go because I wasn't feeling well but everyone had an incredible time. Because it was the right time of the year, they saw so many waterfalls and beautiful things. It's about a three hour drive to there from our home and they stopped for some lunch a couple hours into the trip. They stopped many places to look at different points and waterfalls and once they got to Cherapunjee they walked around a bit, played some games and had some snacks. Houser had a really good time and even got a little sun burnt.
I am feeling one hundred percent better these days. The antibiotics helped so much and I am back to my normal self again. The seasons are changing in our lives in so many ways. The past week it has startes to get really cold here and we are having to use jackets and more blankets. I love it. I keep telling Houser, it feels like Christmastime.
This weekend we had a huge project and changed our house around. We moved our bedroom into our sitting room and our sitting room into our bedroom. I'll try to post some pictures. It took hours and we did alot of Spring cleaning, but we are really happy with the results.
Also I am now officially finished with staffing the SOFM. The international team of staff have all arrived and we have started training and praying this week for the time of prayer we will be having here in Shillong. There will be maybe 50 people involved for 8 weeks and we are so looking forward to this time. These past couple of days have been so incredible. We have had really good times of worship and seeking God. It is so good to be in His presence and praying for the Northeast and surrounding nations. My cup is overflowing.
The DTS left yesterday for their outreaches and so truly this is a season of massive change. So many things are going on and we are happy.
