Hey guys,
Hope you're all doing great! I've been having a great time over the last week with all the different ministries we've been doing for the people here.
This morning was a bit of a typical Sunday for us. Myself and the rest of the worship team woke up a bit earlier than the rest in order to get over to the church that we've been attending for the duration of our stay. Our team led the worship for this morning and Allen delivered the message. It was a great morning with them and they were so greatful to have us there. Pastor Paul, the head hancho at their church, asked us to come back again in the future.
After leaving the church we came back and started packing up our stuff, doing laundry, etc. At about six, we left and had dinner at a place called Dros. I ate Schnitzel! ...I think that's how it's spelled. After that we came back and have just been hanging out. It's about 9:15 over here right now... so you guys are probably just getting lunch.
The time that we have spent here has really been amazing for me. The people here are more receptive of the gospel and of our presence than any others that I have met. It is such a different culture here, and it's hard as an American to get past the world views that our own culture places on us. Even though everything around us is so different, I'm amazed at how similar the people are to us.
A few days ago Greg came and told us that there was a farm community about 45 minutes outside of Worcester that had specifically requested a team from YWAM to come and minister to their children and teens. The leaders wanted to get our input on whether we should follow the original plan or go to the farm so they talked with us, and we all prayed and unanimously decided that it was what we needed to do. So, as of tomorrow morning we will be leaving the base for the next and last three days of our ministry.
I can't wait to see and talk to all of you guys, and I miss you all... and I miss tacos. =]
Well, the guys are going to try to sneak out now and have man night... Need to escape the estrogen!!
I love all of you,
Garrett
