Thursday in Sakartvelo

It's Thursday in Sakartvelo.  It feels like home to be here connecting with so many friends made over the previous two trips.  Catching up with the joys and sorrows of each friends lives.  Over the last two nights I've been treated to dinner out - Kinghali and Megrulian Kachapuri and Lobio with corn bread with Georgian wine and Borjomi water.  My minimal Georgian language skills are rejuvenating.  Life is good!

Last night we began preparation for our first Alternatives to Violence workshop with a team building and planning session.  This morning we begin the workshop with members of an organization of minorities in Georgia.  We are told that there will be 17 or 18 participants and our team is made up of five facilitators and one helper.  Time is short so I'll say good bye for now and hope to add some reflections later.  AVP workshops draw me deeper into reflections of who I am and draw me deeper, further into relationships with God and mankind.  There is always much to learn.
