I liked it most here - in Elblag...

Why? I mean, I spent exactly the same amount of time in the south (for JM)... and yet, I don't feel as sentimental leaving JM as I feel leaving Elblag tomorrow. *Sob*

I guess it's the people. Elblag is where I made built the most amazing relationships/friendships... with people who are real. Such a sense of belonging, I felt. Ministry was much less 'flashy' (I don't mean it in a bad way though) than during the Jesus March, when we went from town to town doing concerts and healing services... Here, in the north - we ministered alongside some brothers and sisters from the Elblag Baptist Church (some of whom I grew really close to) - got dirty painting the house of a poor family, did mimes, shared testimonies and sang songs in run-down backyards while curious (and sometimes unfriendly eyes) peered at us, talked to the people in the park in the evenings , did simple things with the orphans in their summer camp... Many times, it was much less comfortable... much more inconvenient... much more embarrassment... and sometimes, I did wonder if we had done enough... but GOD had His way indeed. There were many praise reports to share at the end of each day, our faith was stretched and I thank God so much for giving me the opportunity to meet all the wonderful people here...

I do hope I will meet my brothers and sisters in Elblag again sometime... on this side of eternity.
