How did we decide to up and go within 10 weeks?

This is a two fold story of how we got to where we are today but let me start by saying that if you'd asked me 16 weeks ago if we had any plans to go to Bangladesh, it would have been a big NO. Not because we didn't have an interest in Bangladesh or it's people but it just wasn't on our radar.

It all started for me on Sunday the 9th June while I was at church. The emphasis for the month was self denial and one of the pastors played a wee clip of his time in India and Bangladesh. While I was watching I became overwhelmed with emotion and it was a confusing emotion (I'm not a big cryer but the tears were leaking). Was I home sick for India? Sad because of how things ended in India? Or was God stirring something? At the end of the clip a guy we had met 24 years earlier in Bangladesh basically asked for people to come and help out as they are desperate for assistance. I spoke to one of the  pastors and another lady that night telling them how I was feeling but that I was confused as I was feeling a prod to go to Bangladesh which seemed odd as my husband wasn't going to church (His faith was still strong but organised church was not his thing) I wasn't sure what his reaction would be.

Anyway, I arrived home and my hubby ( I will now refer to as DC) asked how church was. I think I replied that it was interesting and shared what had happened. His response floored me. Our IT company had been sent an email request a few months back from the same guy I had seen in the clip at church and he was asking if our company could help out with IT and an e-learning platform in the schools they are running. Nothing had really come of this as the reply sent by one of the other directors had not made it to him.

Long story short, We sent off some emails to various people and within a couple of days we were preparing to head to Bangladesh. 

I think the great thing is that we both really feel this is something God wants us to do and he's made it clear to both of us in differing ways. Mine has been in more of an emotional way while in church and DC in a very practical way while not in church.
