Today we got out itinerary for the 10 days we are in Spain. That really made it feel real. I'll post the itinerary as it gets closer, but we will be staying with three different families in Spain who have three very distinct ministries. One is our supervisor and he and his family are involved in traditional church planting and ESL. Another family is involved in sports ministries as well as ESL and some social ministries. The last family has a strong focus on youth (which by the way, in Spain is defined as a much broader age group than here in America - teens through twenties). We will also get a chance to attend worship, Bible study, and ESL classes.
No news on the house showings, but God was gracious and the snow stayed away until after our showing today. Keep on praying as we wait on God's perfect timing to answer yes.
It's snowing here, finally. School was cancelled lat night because snow was forecasted, but we didn't see any snow until about 3:00 this afternoon. School is already cancelled for tomorrow. Let it snow all it wants now, but please, oh please, by Sunday let it all clear out so that we can make our flights!
We're excited for you! Much to see and learn - will be hard to take it all in.
ReplyDeleteAs to the ministry - I think you'll find most of Europe considers youth to be teens through unmarried twenties. They do a good job of keeping up with those who often get lost in the "college and career" stage of life. That is certainly the case in UKR.
Praying for you all!
