Farewell Bangladesh

And so we experienced Bangladesh; with all it's poverty, lack of public amenities that we so take for granted at home and crazy traffic conditions where millions of people battle to get to their destinations as quick as they can!!  We were awakened each morning at 5.30am with the Muslim call to prayer, reminding us of a nation immersed in a religion so foreign to us, yet a people so hungry to learn and humble to receive.  We were thankful for the fantastic hospitality of our hosts and the care they took of us, for the vision they shared with us, and the passion they so obviously have for the work of the Kingdom.  Bangladesh; a country poor in living standards and possessions, but rich in colour and dignity, devout in faith and generous in hospitality.
