Around the World in 180 Days


Today was our last class with the student we tutor and also our going-away party with all the girls. This week has been filled with last minute adventures, errands, emotions, smiles, and goodbyes. It’s still pretty unbelievable that 6 months have gone by since Julie and I clasped hands and boarded our plane to begin this journey.

In our house, we’ve spent the week sharing memories and laughter. I can honestly say there have been (so far) more smiles than tears, and I’m so grateful for that. Ending strong and making space for our departure to be worthy of the relationships we’ve formed here was one of my prayers, and I feel like God has granted it. Thank you for all your prayers at home for us as we transition back to the U.S. We cannot wait to see all of you in person and share more stories from our Cambodia adventure :)

This place and these girls will be in our hearts forever.
