We ate at this table all week, enjoying meals in the presence of Jesus with like-minded friends from many nations and cultures. This table is so awesome… words fail me.

The horizon is the Himalayan mountain range. We are nearing Kathmandu.

Most mornings, Deanna and I had time for a half-hour walk before the day-long meetings.

We never ate fast food or had coffee here.

We flew from Marabá to São Paulo (5 hours), to Istanbul (13 hours), to Kathmandu (7 hours). It takes us about three days each way, with layovers. It is grueling because we’re not as young as we used to be, but still so worth it.
