Sri Lanka

Here I am in Sri Lanka. This is my third trip to this country. The first one was 2002, then 2004. Right after the 2004 visit, the Tsunami that hit many countries also hit this country. The hotel I stayed then and I am staying right now is also hit by it. It looks quite different. The lives of the people are no longer the same.

I am here to serve national pastors for four days session. I am sharing about the leadership and church planting. Tomorrow, the national pastors are coming. I am looking forward to getting to know new people. Also, there will be friends from before.

This country is also a country of elephants. They have an orphanage for elephants.

Like if the elephant moms and dads are too permissive do the little kid elephants get put into the orphanage, or foster care system?

j/k. How fun. Praying for your trip! And you of course!
