Wrapped Up...

Hi everyone,

Sorry that this post is so delayed. I wanted to post one more time to show you what we did as a team at the end of our trip, but was too busy or didn't have wifi after we left the camp. So here are a few pics of our final days together as a team in Greece


(Here's a quick pic of our campsite, just so you have an idea...)

We packed up camp and left Isthmia Campground to head to the Acrocorinth. We drove about 3/4 of the way up the mountain, and then hiked (in extremely hot weather) to the top and marvelled at the ancient ruins and beautiful views.



After that we were running out of time to catch our ferry to Poros, so we skipped Epidavros. We headed straight to the port and took the 10 min ferry ride to the beautiful island of Poros where we had some down time to process and debrief.
 After Poros, we took the ferry to Athens. Melissa lead us in a service where we talked about some of our God moments of Operation Joshua and had some time in prayer.


We landed in Athens and headed straight to the Acropolis. We checked out the Acropolis Museum first, and then wandered around the ruins.


Unfortunately while we were parked near the Acropolis one of our group's cars was broken into. Everything was taken, including cameras, a jacket, toiletries, cell phone chargers, and Ellen's passport :(.

That night we spent on the Morning Star, Hellenic Ministry's boat, and the next morning we were off on our own!
.
It was truly an incredible experience to be a part of Operation Joshua. I think everyone learned a lot about themselves as well as how God can work through each of us. I'm sure many of you will be hearing about the individual stories that each of us have! Thank you so much for following along with us and I know that I can't wait to return to Greece someday!

-Anna
