Germany!


Sigen, Germany! I was able to go to a leadership conference with the church that i attend here, Calvary Chapel. I'm standing infront of the student hostile for their Bible college. This is were we all stayed together. Pat and I went with Dori, Lydia, Gyori, and Luca.
After each session, we went out on that patio for coffee or tea. wow free coffee is a beautiful thing until you realize that you have had 3 cups a day or so... then it is time to take control. Oh that and a chai latte in the morning, during your QT, that is the way to start off the day.
There is just something wrong with the idea of sushi in a crepe. And daddy i took the pictures of the bridges for you!

work hard, play hard

j
My friend Adi and I are at the market that comes to Debrecen twice a year, It reminded me a little of Locust Grove days. There were booths and crafts, clothes, jewelry and of course food. Unfortunately nothing as good as the barbecue chicken. I say that but i didnt' really try it.

Speaking of food, i went to a cookout with my friend Judit and they were having the traditional roasted pig fat. So yes on that stick there is not a marshmallow waiting to be put between a gram cracker and chocolate, but fat waiting to be dripped over bread garnished with possibly a sausage. Afterwards someone pulled out the guitar and we sang or at least i tried in between the sneezes, i must be allergic to something here.

A little shopping, a little cookout what is left besides AMERICAN FOOTBALL!!! Me the one in the middle with the ball, Yen the one learning to throw, Alex, the one teaching, Pat, Zsombie, and Ben played a game of touch football. Well at least it was susposed to be two hand touch, Alex either didn't get the memo, or just thought it would be fun to watch me hit the grass. (I personally think that it was the later) Don't worry i returned the favor.
Well, after the circus me, alex and pat all went to a biblestudy that one of my friends was having. We have been studying through the book of romans and afterwards one of the girls and i were talking and she surrendered her life to Christ. Words can't express the joy and gratitude in my heart. I am daily amazed at His goodness towards me and all who would call to Him. This past month really seems like a blur, but one thing i do know is that the lost are found the dying are given life and God is the one who holds all things together. He is moving in the hearts of men and women here and I'm thankful that i get to watch.

circus under the big top... literally



On friday we went to the Hungarian circus! This was sooo much fun! All i can say is bring in the clowns... in really bad outfits! This is pat buying cotton candy and we also had popcorn.

And as you can see we really like the cotton candy! We also like the REALLY OLD elephant and the african man stand. This group was quite talented. It was an amazing day.

happy birthday to me!

Well as many of you know I had a birthday in the month of April. I was planning a relaxing day of doing nothing much. I went to the gym, hung out with Alex and was going to meet Rita and Anita later on that day for coffee. Rita and i had a nice time together and we were meeting Anita later on. So we all ran some errands together and they asked me what all i had planned for the night, when i said not much except for meeting up with alex later they put a blind fold on my head, put me in a car and we drove around Debrecen for a little bit. Then they proceeded to take me out of the car, into a courtyard, upstair and then i heard alex's voice, it was a surprise party! some of my friends had gathered and we eat and talked and had a great evening. It was a great day! I have pictures, but they will have to come when my camera is not acting up. So stayed tuned.
