"Make new friends and keep the old,
One is silver and the other is gold."
Coming into Aldi's yesterday, I ran into Micah's high school youth pastor, Paul. Paul, his wife and their four children are preparing to move to Africa this coming August. In the course of our conversation, after finding out Paul's family was living "off campus" while in Tanzania, I asked if he would like to connect with a couple of families we've known since we first walked up the gangway on the good ship Mercy. This families left the ship and lived on their own in Liberia. Paul thought it was a great idea, so last night I sent an e-mail out to Paul, Sally and Olly, and Kristin.
I am so thankful for these old friends - Sally and Olly in England and Kristin in Tennessee. Olly joyfully offered to "share our failures and successes of living off-grid in Liberia". Kristin is "happy to help however I can!"
To God be the glory on another "Thankful Thursday"!
