Update
We currently have 4 men in the program. Two men left today, one yesterday, and one the day before. I guess it is not unusual this time of the year. There are Christmas parties and a lot more work available. 4 men is fine, it will make it a bit easier on everyone for the meantime. I think being in a new place was stressful for the guys, whom I believe need some stability and change seems to bring some fear, worry, and discomfort that is tough for them to deal with. On another note. I am riding a bike and running to and from the program. It is about a 4k run with a couple beasty hills. I am enjoying it a ton. It is not so bad looking at palm trees and mountains while running. Jared and Eileen, my best friends down here are back in the states for Christmas. I will be spending the holidays with a couple other families and also with a group of people from New Zealand who run a Backpackers, which is a really nice hostel. They are going to serve our program men dinner and entertain us. It should be a great week. Please pray for our 4 men that are still in the program and also for my friend Jimmy who's daughter has chronic kidney infections and will need to have surgery on a hernia when she turns 4...she is not even 2 yet.
