Bangldesh Journal: Thursday July 6, 2006

Today was spent until 5ish in Darren and Ling’s bedroom, which also has A/C with Adriel who also got sick last night, but after me at like 4am. All the groups that had to leave for their sites (far from the Grace House) began to arrive back for the weekend at about 4pm. This was like tourcher for me because I was in my PJs and I couldn’t go out and talk with them and I also did not feel well. I finally got dressed and attempted to mix, but after a while sickness kicked in. So I went to rest in Ray and Danielle’s room where Lauren was because her team (with the exception of Darren and Ling) all got food poisoning at their site.
As the night went on Lauren, Andrew, Phil, Adriel, and I got worse. Beth got better. Andrew was almost taken to the hospital, but instead they brought a doctor to us. Lauren and I didn’t see the doctor, but we saw the doctor that came the next morning. Out of all this junk it was amazing to see how God used it to bring out community closer together. I felt that people really cared because they would stop by to talk, pray, or run and do things for us. God is awesome.
Lauren and I slept in Ray and Danielle’s room (Ray wasn’t there, he slept with the boys). That whole night was one of the loudest thunderstorms I’ve ever experienced in a long time. Lauren and I jumped and startled each other when we were sharing a king bed.
