What have Paul and Eli been doing in Glennville?

The time is drawing near

It has been a long time coming.  Three years of support-raising has led us to this point.  We have been saying goodbye to our church, family members, and dear friends.  I have been more emotional during this time than I can ever remember.  It has been hard, but God has been showing me that there is a blessing in tough goodbyes.  It is evidence of a connection.  Because we are going so far away and for a long time, I have felt the desire to let the people I love know exactly how I feel.  I have found that most of them have been just as open.  What a blessed man I am!  I know that Susan would ditto my comments here.

Coming up:  A few more goodbyes and then a long plane ride on Tuesday, the 25th.  Pray for our family as we travel and pray for the spread of the gospel in Bulgaria.
