Luggage all gone!

After months of planning and preparation, we have finally made it to Nicaragua. The garden in the back of the team house is breathtaking. I think the smell of the team is a little less than breathtaking, since we arrived with no soap or clean clothes. It is Sunday morning and we are getting ready for church. Without luggage the concept of going to church in our travel clothes is strange. We are humbled before God this morning in a very new way. Maybe it's good that we experience church dirty and smelly in the stench of the day before. Maybe this is how our soul enters worship everyday, dirty, unclean, and covered with the sins of yesterday. Something to think about.
