Exhaustion hits

I will never forget what a thrill it was to see you all come through the door at Dulles yesterday. What a holy adventure you have just completed.
Here’s a prayer I ran across by George Appleton, former Bishop of Jerusalem and founder of St George’s College, where you stayed. It seems appropriate:
” Give me a candle of your spirit, O God, as I go down into the deep of my own being. Show me the hidden things. Take me down to the spring of my life, and tell me my nature and my name. Give me freedom to grow, so that I may become my true self; the fulfillment of the seed You planted in me at my making. Amen ”

I was lucky enough to have not only Henry, but also Si, Bryan, and David (and Barbara!) in my car and we heard stories the whole ride home. I wouldn’t trade it for anything! What an amazing trip and what an amazing group of people to have shared it with. Thank you so much Bryan, Michaelle and David for shepherding the pilgrims on this journey.

Thanks to all who prayed for us and read the blog. You were all there in spirit! I am exhausted and can’t see straight, but can’t stop talking about our life changing journey. Peace!

Yes, they are home. We were so excited to see them, exhaustion and all. Thank you Barbara for your wonderful sign and thank you Bryan, Michaelle, and David for the extraordinary journey. Michaelle and Thomas recounted wonderful tales all the way home, and Thomas is still telling of the adventures, complete with pictures and all. What a fantastic trip they have had.
