Looking towards the rest of the month

It's hard to realize that we have less than three weeks left here. We have already shifted into "living" mode rather than "moving" mode. That obviously needs to change...and fast! We have a friend helping us around the house and with going through things to decide what to take and what to leave (give-away, sell, etc.) It's also been frustrating not having regular transport as we haven't even been able to frequent many of the places we used to when we lived here.

The oppressive heat we've been experiencing lately here has made productivity an even bigger challenge. Not only do we have all the packing-up of the house to do, but Edil and I will be teaching the last two weeks we're here at the ministry house. They hold a night school there twice a week, the School of Urban Missions. Edil teaches next week, and I the week after. We have enjoyed spending time with the staff that runs the house. They come over to hang-out with us when they can. I will be teaching on Mercy Ministries and on the Missional Church (the church going out and being real to, loving and serving people, rather than a church being a "club for Christians" and expecting the world to come to us.) It's been a while since I've taught and I am looking forward to it. Although I think that last week is going to be crazy (with all the packing to be done.) Prayers appreciated!
