Around 500 people helped with our medical missions. God is awesome.

So today was our 5th and last medical mission. What can I say? It has been incredible.
Even though it is hot and sweaty and a very long day, it is fulfilling and so much more so than some self centered holiday.
I wish more than anything that I could stay here.
But I want to see everyone quite a lot too.
I know I have said that a lot already.
Tonight I am visiting a youth group, it starts at 8pm. I'm ready for an interesting night, hopefully they won't make me sing again.
Also, I can't wait for fresh air back in Australia. I have been coughing all the time and don't really feel the best health-wise.
Last night and the night before opened my eyes more to the fact that it is quite a dangerous place here in the Philippines. Including for our sake. But that ordeal is over now, I hope.
I have been stocking up on chocolate lately because i have missed it so much. Basically the only stuff you can get here are kit kats and toblerone.
We are just going to maccas tonight so we can be at the church in time for youth.
Tomorrow we're visiting each project, a lot of travelling I think. Then Sunday I am not sure what we are doing, possibly sight seeing. Monday will be our last day in laoag and we will be sight seeing then too. Then Tuesday morning we are flying to Manila and going to either the market markets or the mall of Asia to shop, before our 9pm plane flight home. Then Wednesday is summer camp.
Just thinking about the next few days is exhausting.
But it will be good. It is always good here.
