Today we had to say goodbye to Crystal, who has been here with us for the last 3 months. I actually got to go all the way to the terminal with her (there is only one terminal)... as each checkpoint told me we are not able to allow you; I asked please can I help her and of course... they let me go! Good thing... when I was looking at the paper they gave her after check in, it said her destination was Khartoum, Sudan. We cleared that up pretty quickly as they realized that was someone elses name! We really appreciated having Crystal here; she was always willing to help with anything and fun to be around... always laughing at something (Isai can be funny). Things will be different around here without her and we will miss her very much but know the Lord has much in store for her in these coming years. Almost all who said goodbye to her and prayed for her made sure to mention "Maybe you will marry a Burundian". The Lord knows! One even told her she should come back and begin a school called "Crystals school of English"! We laughed as we heard different peoples ideas to get her to stay and return of course! Crystal, thank you for all you have done and poured out of your heart when you were with us, may God bless you and keep you and cause His face to shine upon you. All our love...
