On day eight we said goodbye to the kids. Some, of course, went back to the orphanage. Some live in the nearby villages. Here are some pics...
I took this pic inside of Abanob's home. This is his family. I heard that he lived near the clinic we were visiting that day so I began to walk the street, poking my head into doorways and asking for Abanob. I found him and was able to meet his family.
Grant and I also visited another home nearby. These families live in extremely rough conditions. They offered us tea and we sat and visited for a while. Before we left I asked if I could pray for them. I prayed, in English of course. Dr. Hany translated. Here's a pic of their family...
This is the view from atop the clinic we visited on day eight. This is near the village we ministered in near Armant.
Later that day we took a trip (about an hour's drive) to another village. We visited a Coptic church and a huge monestary. While at the monestary we happened to bump into the main man...the bishop. Here's a pic of our group with the bish...
We returned to one of the priest's homes for a special dinner prepared in our honor...stuffed doves...with, of course, the heads still on the doves when served. Nice. How did it taste, you ask? Like chicken, of course.

The spicy event was great. Thanks for giving a great message. Meant alot to us.
The doves were stuffed with some rice and other unidentifiable stuff. And unlike Married Life Live, it was not spicy. :)
