Tuesday being my day off, I spent much of the day hanging out in my apartment doing various things. So at 11PM, someone knocked at the door saying that a large group of the students wanted to go to the airport to say good bye to the Stinnettes.... Having cried and said good bye.... and hating middle of the night airport runs.... I was not excited about it but I agreed to do it.
I got up at the agreed upon time and waited but the girls must have been told a later time or were running late.... so the Men and I hopped in the van and left so we did not miss the Stinnettes before they entered the secure area of the airport.
We actually beat them to the airport by about 5 minutes but they seemed excited to see us. The guys prepared a song. Harald Gorges, director of Liebenzell Micronesia, also showed up. He shared the watch word for the morning and prayed for their journey.... then we sang another song and all said our goodbyes. It was one of those God moments..... You know it looked like everything was so organized and put together but really none of it was planned.
A group of about 10 women also came to the airport right after we left and were also able to say their goodbyes.
Sorry Steve and Anne are blurry. It was about 4:15AM.... I am not at my best.
