So Long From Down Under










WOW! It has been a beautiful ride, even though it is a dreary day as I pack up my things and will be heading to the airport in a couple of hours. Todd gets to stay an extra day, but as for me, I am ready to go home, see my family...and go back to work!?
Well, Sydney did not disappoint as the final closing city of this World Tour. They pretty much packed the house and were singing and dancing from the start. There were about 9,000 or so in attendance. They did not want to leave and parts of us did not want them to leave either. They gave a huge offering for the World Tour and prayed "back" to Hong Kong and for their nation as well.
Since Louie said it from the stage, I guess it is no secret any longer. Passion plans on going to 5 more cities, internationally, next spring. So, if you feel led to take a vacation, watch the blog and come volunteer.
I will post some pictures maybe while I am at the airport or in the next 24 hours. Let me know if you want me to keep the blog going or do I end it for now. It has been fun and a great honor to be part of this 17 city world tour. I have met some great people I know I will never see this side of heaven. It is wonderful to know that I will see and know people of every race in heaven.
Time to pack up; thanks for the comments and your following along. I will post another blog from Texas.
