We are in the HCMC airport waiting to board. All is well! I was able to interview the team and everyone reports spectacular experiences. Many were life changing, I believe. We heard from the Hue team and they also had wonderful experiences. Many of the team expressed hope that they would be regulars in the future. What a blessing.
There were a lot of heartfelt and meaningful goodbyes today and this evening. Very touching!
Craig and Rebecca Hedges will be staying in Hanoi for the next two weeks. Pray for their extended one month trip.
I worked all morning teaching a sinus course to 60 province doctors at Cho Ray. I had a great experience and really enjoyed the morning. However, this was my goodbye to Cho Ray as I will now be working at the ENT Hospital and Gia Dinh in HCMC.
This afternoon I spent a lot of time with Minh (known as Male Ming to distinguish from our first fellow, Minh!). We had meaningful discussions about core life issues. It was a joyous conversation, again, assuring us that we are doing what we are supposed to be doing.
OK… We’ve now landed in Korea, uneventfully, except every step of the way has required more goodbyes. We are now down to 4 of us. Sad to say goodbye but wonderful to almost be home!
I will send one final sign off note when I arrive in Charlotte. It has been one of the best trips ever. It is very meaningful to have such a group and to serve in such a way. Joy abounds! Thank you again for your prayers. David
