Today was a long time coming. Even though I still really don't know if/when I will leave, I have now done all I can do (besides pester people) to make it happen.
I talked to Jairo today after spending more than two weeks trying to catch up with him. He said that I can send the letter to K2, so I sent it a few minutes ago. The next step is in the leadership's hands at K2. I asked them to send a letter to La Iglesia En Transformacion stating that they are in support of me going to Honduras.
I feel more comfortable about this after talking to Eric Winter two weeks ago. I told him that I had written the letter, but was waiting to talk to Jairo about it. Eric's response was, "I can't wait to read your letter!" which was exactly what I needed to hear. I have been imagining that Eric is so busy that he would feel burdened by an extra task.
Jairo also talked to me about some other things that were on my mind so I am relieved because I wasn't sure how to bring them up. When will I learn to be direct with Jairo and not afraid to face things head on with him? I need to get over this if I expect to work closely with him and his church.
As the hours passed today I have gotten more and more excited. I feel the end of my time in the United States drawing near. Leaving in May sounds good to me! But it's out of my hands now...
