\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Last Monday we crawled into our own beds very late after flying back home from a long weekend spent in Santa Marta, Colombia.\u00a0 We gathered together with all of the Serve Globally personnel serving in Latin America for our first region wide retreat during the time that we have been serving with the ECC.\u00a0 And it did not disappoint!\u00a0 I can\u2019t tell you how good it was for us to be together with so many of our colleagues for a couple days of learning, laughing, edifying conversation and needed safe space.\u00a0 And the beach time wasn\u2019t bad either! \u00a0It was both restful and productive and a joy to reconnect with friends we rarely see and also get to know folks we haven\u2019t had the opportunity to meet yet. The Serve Globally staff from Chicago cared for us well and arrived with US snacks in hand \u2013 nothing quite like Chex Mix and Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Cups to make you feel loved!<\/p>\n

I think my favorite part of our time together was watching our kids connect with the other kids.\u00a0 This MK\/Third Culture Kid life isn\u2019t always the easiest and for them to know that they aren\u2019t alone in the struggle is so important.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So grateful for these people and a few precious days spent together!<\/p>\n
