As we all walk through various stages of jet-lag, re-entry, and recovery, I would like to wrap up this blog by saying thank you to all of you who have checked in on us during this adventure; thank you to all who have prayed us there and back; thank you to all who have generously supported us in many ways!  We close this chapter by recognizing that this is only the beginning of a whole new book in many of our lives.  We have met and loved another branch of our family, God's beautiful family, and we all have the same, generous Father!  We now face a time of reflection, thinking, wrestling with where God is leading us, and why God even put us on this trip.  Most of all, as Will Phillips will be very quick to remind us, we need to be ready to hear God, and ready to listen.  

Signing off, for now,

Kristin Gort, for Team Malawi, 2013!

Waiting in Chicago for our first flight.  We had no idea what was ahead of us.
