i leave today for new servant partners staff training in manila, philippines. this is a picture of the community i will be staying in. this is balic-balic one year ago. we think it will probably look a little different now as the community is under imminent threat of beging demolished by the government and many people have already left their homes to different communities. well, this should be an adventure. please pray for my team and especially for the community of balic-balic. peace and love.
