We went to ILC in Virginia last week. That’s where we spent seven weeks in training before heading off to Peru two years ago. It was surreal being there again. There were about 30 other people there who went through that same training with us 2 years back. It was so strange to see everyone again in that same context. It was the same circumstance . . . but everybody had changed so much. . . mostly on the inside. We’d all been challenged, hurt, traumatized, amazed, etc. in a way that had changed us forever.
We spent most of the week with a lump in our throats. Because we missed Peru and ILC reminded us so much of that time. And because these folks really got us. They knew what we were going through trying to re-adjust to life in the U.S., because they were trying to re-adjust as well. God used the week to heal us and shape us and help us know what to do next. Walk with him.
