The last day is always sad, leaving the kids behind.
We did what we came to do: finish the project helping run sewer line to the boys houses, preached, taught and loved lots of kids. Of course, with about 485 kids, we were outloved back. You feel like a rock star, walking along the 50 acres of developed campus and having your name called constantly, asking to have a picture taken with you, having a small mob of kids rushing you, wanting to touch you, talk to you, hug you.
We did what we came to do, but there is more to be done there, and leaving feels like unfinished business.
