I made it back to the village. I ended up taking a motorbike to the airport in Gunung-Sitoli (The first helicopter dropped me off in a soccer field about half an hours drive from the airport), and I got on a helicopter pretty quick from there. When I landed, I went to see Thoma and Erwin at the hospital. They're apparently doing very well there. They are really helping a lot of people. It's so awesome. Thank you Jesus.
When I got back to the village I had a fairly warm reception. The people had heard somewhere that Sibolga had somehow been destroyed, so I told them that that was not true. I walked around with Qisa, and he told everyone that I had been in Sibolga and that it was fine. There are lies being told around this island, and nobody knows who's starting them. I pray against fear, and against the lies that are being spread to scare the people. I pray that you would allow the people to have peace, and that they would trust you. I pray that they would trust me in your name. Thank you Jesus.
Amen
