Wow

We went to Toccoa yesterday to see people, and man, was that a good time. In the evening we all gathered at Helen's house (a lady that the Styrons know) and that was one of the most special times I've ever experienced.

There was such a strange mix of us. Helen and Juan knew Chenoah through homeschooling in Georgia, Elaine knew Helen and Juan, Lee and I knew the Styrons, and Margie and her husband knew Lee. So none of us really knew everyone who was there.

Anyway, it was the closest thing I've ever experienced to the church in Acts 2. And it wasn't forced in any way. We all just ate together, started talking, then praying, then singing, and then we did it all over again. And we all just had that one thing in common, that we are all in God's kingdom. It was amazing.

I am really excited to see what their home church is like down in Peru. I met most of the people, but I didn't get to see what their lives were like together. I have a feeling that last night wasn't as uncommon to most of the people there.

Only five days til I'm in the air for six hours! I'm getting more and more anxious.
