Old Friends

Kate flew in from Wisconsin for Easter break, so I drove up to Pasadena to visit with her and Nicola, who is due four days after me with a little boy. It's been so long since I've been able to visit my YWAM friends, so it was great to be able to spend the day with them. We decided to drive over to visit the YWAM LA base, where we all used to be on staff together. It's hard to believe that was eight years ago. It was like a reunion. We got to see several old friends who are still on staff there, training new young missionaries. We have so many memories from working in that ministry together, it's the equivalent of our "college days". Some of our friends were telling us about upcoming outreaches they were taking to places Afghanistan and Thailand. Part of me was wishing I could do that again, but right now God has me on a different path. I definitely want my children to experience what it's like to share God's love with another culture, so maybe we'll be able to do that as a family in the future.
