Wonderful Company for Lunch

By Chris

Today the Sisters invited us to dine with them for lunch. It was a fantastic meal with even better company. They have been so welcoming to us. Emily and I met a sister all the way from from Florida!! Hearing about their stories and their love for Christ and the service they are doing here in Queens was very uplifting and inspirational as we prepare to do our own work and show the love of Christ on the other side of the world. As I shared with a few of the sisters, and I think a lot of the team agrees, the fact that tomorrow we leave for the opposite end of the globe seems unreal and hard to grasp. Anyway, here is a picture of the mission team and the sisters on the front steps of the convent after lunch.
