7 Days Before Spain

Oh my!  7 days = 1 week.  It is definitely time to get serious about getting ready to go.  Finished shopping today, I think.  One more trip to Target and I'll be done (or at least until we start putting things in the suitcases and discover what we forgot).  Hard to believe at this time next week we'll be in the air, halfway between America and Spain.  I do believe that the excitement is finally over taking all the other emotions. 

It has been a full day - we started the morning briefly sharing our story at Pinedale Christian Church in Winston Salem.  What a warm welcome we received!  Two other ministries presented as well (also hoping for financial support).  It was cool because one ministry was here in the state, one was in the United States, and ours of course was in Spain.  Judea, Samaria, and the Utmost Ends of the Earth all at one time.

We had open house this afternoon and although only one family came through, our realtor said they seemed interested.  Keep on praying.   No feedback from the family that saw it both Thursday and Saturday yet and if the weather cooperates we have another showing tomorrow morning.  Wouldn't it be fabulous for it to sell before we leave next Sunday?!

Tonight I read the following facebook post from a fellow worker in Spain - just sent chills up my spine.  God is moving in Spain and we can hardly wait to see it and experience it.  I know God doesn't need us to accomplish His plan, but it is exciting to be given the privilege to serve Him this way.

Capacity crowd at the Centro Evangelico-Cristo Vive Hoy worship service. In addition to a capacity crowd we had 5 new visitors. For the past 8 wks we have had at least 3 or more new visitors each Sun. Almost all of them returning for consecutive wks. It is so amazing and humbling to watch God build His church here in Guadalajara, Spain.

Countdown is on - tomorrow the suitcases come out of the attic!  This is definitely the ride of a lifetime!
