My parents also were staying in town this past weekend, though they stayed on post and then with family friends when they first arrived on Thursday. Rachel's folks left on Sunday afternoon, and my folks moved into our guest room tonight and will stay until Tuesday morning.

My parents are the fourth straight set of guests here at Wit's End in the span of about 15 days. It started two weeks ago, with a missionary care specialist from OMS International, and then a week ago, there was a missionary couple dedicated to missionary pastoral care from OM (Operation Mobilization). Then Rachel's parents, brother & sister for Friday and Saturday nights, and then my folks for Sunday and Monday nights. It has been great fun, but after so much activity, it's good to have the promise of a quiet house this week.
