Our last team training was this morning, and we spent several hours pulling the VBS together, answering questions, separating out hundreds of craft kits, laughing with and at each other, praying, eating pizza, talking about things that I'm sure some people thought they would never talk about (Sorry, guys, I lived with a team in Kenya for sixteen months. Some things are just no longer awkward.) and generally letting it sink in that we really are leaving - and soon.
The kids and adults on the team are amazing, and I am ridiculously excited to see both the good things and the hard things (and the hard-but-good things) that God does in us and through us over the course of the trip. We are as prepared as we could possibly be for a team that has never been to Haiti before, and, I hope, pretty fully aware of just how un-prepared that automatically makes us.
And, to be fully honest, I am more than a little excited to just get out of the States again, even if just for a week and a half. :)
