We’re preparing to leave after a moving, spiritual experience of working with the poor. Our rustic home for the week has had plumbing issues and now the discussion ensues about who will be the person who has to plunge the toliet.

All I know is if it’s me, I’m asking for a raise.

And so on the 7th day, God created the plunger. Matt used that plunger and cleaned the toliet. And it was very good and there was much rejoicing throughout the land.

On a serious note, imagine being so poor that you didn’t have a toliet seat, or indoor plumbing that worked, or even a simple way to fix the problem? So I’ve come to the conclusion that our problem is not that big a deal.

Home soon! It will be good to see my wife and dog after a week of being here!
