So today it rained and we prayed hardcore. Father has taught me that things need to change when I get home. That I must delight myself in God first. Tonight is turkish pizza night. We will see if it is good. I am learning that church is simple but not easy.

Today was a slow day but a great one nonetheless. It rained really hard so there wasnt anybody at the park so we prayed and it was wonderfully amazing. I havent felt prayer work this well in a longtime. We are shopping tomorrow with our friend, please pray for him!

Today rained all day. No one really came to the park, but it was still a great day. We plowed for most of the day and had SC and LTG. It is great to see how God can turn a rainy day into a great day for Him!

Wie gehts? Today was so awesome, when i woke up it was raining, & I was like "aw man, no one's going to come to the our park today", so as we were prayer walking me and E saw this guy that we thought we needed to talk to. So we talked to him & he ended up being very open and spoke a lot of English. We talked for about 3hrs and the last 30 min got into a very deep spiritual convo w/ him. He's "catholic" but very confused. He had a lot of new age beliefs. Please pray that he'll come back and continue to be curious. Tschuss!

Hey guys! Today was very intense, both physically and spiritually. i have been running on major lack of sleep and jet lag isnt helping, so if yall could keep praying for strength that would be gerat. it was intense spiritually because we started off the day with intense Bible studies over the book of acts, followed by 2 hours of discussions. after that we went straight to a park and prayer walked for about 5 hrs. in the begining i wasn't really into it, but later, as we got past the usual prayers and really delved, i really enjoyed it. we just surrounded the park with blessings, and prayed that God would show us his plan. and four our counrtry and all sorts of things, it was so amazing. on the way back we stopped to get german ice cream (so good!) the lady who owned it was italian, so tomorrow im going 2 order in italia. continue to pray 4 strength and also for hearts to be opened, there's a real need. happy late b'day Julie! i'm getting you something dont worry! God Bless!

So Father gave me some sleep on the plane over here. Jet lag isn't too bad. Today we got to Koln and had to navigate the city in our travel groups. "Not to worry" said I, "we have interns that can help us" I was wrong, we have learned to read sings now and figure out what they mean. People here don't smile much, but they seem to be nice. I really like eis now. (No more blue bell for me) We are about to seee the Kolner Dom. I might even see some man-pris! I love you all. No I didn't get air sick. Pray for my team please!
