A Year of Goodbyes

This year Asuncion will say its fair share of "Chau" and "Hasta luego"
In March the Asuncion bid farewell to Josh & Vanessa. Vanessa served on this team for 5 years. She married Josh after her third year on the team. They served together until March 8th of this year.
May 18, Micah said "Chaucito" to Asuncion after 4 and half months as an intern. She will be missed.
May 20, Carla and Mercedes head back home after their memorable 2 week visit.
May 28, Mauri Yegros will head to Tennesse to study at Freed Hardeman.
June 15, Helena Yegros will also be heading to Tennesse to study at Freed Hardeman as well.
As yall know the Yegros have been a big part of my internship here in Asuncion. It will sad to see them go.
June 30, Ashley, Ella and Ava Hardin will be returning to Tennessee after their 5 years on the team.
July 11, Ethan Hardin will joing his family in Tennessee. (that date is approximate)
As for me, I was scheduled to leave August 11th but after much prayer and diliberation I have decided to extend my time here in Asuncion. Most likely it will be sometime in December.
Its not official until I change the date on the ticket, which I havent yet, which I should probably do soon.

Chau Micah! Hasta Pronto!

Goodbye Lunch for Carla and Mercedes


Carla, Alba, Eu

Mercedes being her normal wacky hilarious self ;)

Soon it will be the season of "Hola." Its summer time in the states and so throughout the months of June July and August, summer interns and church groups will visit the church here at Sacramento. Our sorrows of departure will be quick to turn to joy!

Prayer Request: I have been under the weather for a few days. It stinks! Please pray for my quick recovery and a stronger immune system. Thanks!!

Hasta la Proxima!
