In the Land of the Windmill

Well, yesterday we hung out at the Green's house and then went to the base. Got some awesome American pizza and then played basketball for an hour. Won one and lost one. It's so nice to have other Christians around you, never mind the fact that they speak English!!! We were going to have a street meeting in Aachen last night but it got canceled by some circumstances. The castle we went to was cool though. Not real big, but nice and fancy compared to Ukranian ones. Church this morning was great!! Dad preached, in English for the 2nd time in 2 years, on "Do You Really Still Love God?." I sang "A Few Good Men" in a slap together quartet with my dad, Jonathan, Stephen, and Yours Truely. My "former friend" Jacob Green was trying to mess me up the whole time by making faces etc. I guess I'll forgive him someday!!! Praise the Lord for these missionaries doing a great work with these Military and German people. We went to a USAF base in Belgium in the evening and had a great service there. I am not supposed to say what the base is for, but it is very high security!!! Cool stuff!! After the service we went over to the missionary pastor's house and had some really good fellowship. Please pray for the Harrises as they are getting older and can not serve God as good physically as they want to.

A Zombie!! (spelling)

Well, I do not love this template, but I did not have time to make a better one. Since it is no longer winter and I do not want it to BE winter I thought it might help the weather if I changed it. Makes sense right?? Today we are going to a NATO base not far away and then going to find some castle in Holland. Talk to you all later.

Near Holland

Germany has been good. Figures, last time we were here I brought winter stuff,. You know wolf fur line ski coat, boots the whole deal. Well, it was hot almost 25 everyday. So, this time I brought mostly summer clothes, and... you guessed it. It has been cold, more or less, around 10 or so. Oh, I forgot, on the way to Germany we took a small detour and went through Saltsburg, (spelling??) Austria. It was so beautiful!!! We had a snow ball fight, saw where Motzart was born, walked around some of the places where The Sound of Music was filmed and got in to our place in Germany at 5 in the morning. Runing here is awesome. The hills are wicked steep and there has been fog almost everyday so you feel like you're in a midevil world. I went for a 7 mile run on Tuesday and ended up going for 11. But I loved it. It is so easy to worship when your are all alone and using your body to serve God. The flesh does not like it, but it works. Yesterday we drove to Aachen, near Holland but still in Germany, and are staying here until Sunday. Being around Americans is great!! We even got to go to Chile's the other day!!! Ya, there is one on Ramstien, the largest Air Force Base in DE. I got to go to two services of a missions conference last week . The Lord really moved. One of the men who has been coming to the church since March asked to be washed. He meant baptised. He gave his testimony of his mother leading him to Christ when he was a kid and how he came to Germany later. Did I mention that he is from Iraq??? Cool huh?? God can work anywhere. I need to go. We have five laptops going at the same time playing a flight simulator. I need to kill some F-16's. I can not stand Lockheed!!!! Go General Electric!!!! I'll put some pics on later, it is at working at the moment

Gone

Yes, I know the whole world is looking for me, and going into shock because I have not updated my blog even though I do VERY faithfully. Right?? LOL Believe it or not I am back in Germany!! Ya well we had to come back out for my mom to go to the doctor for a follow up visit to last month. I have been out here for a week and have not used the computer for the whole time. Praise God we are doing fine. A few days before we left I was playing that game with my brother where he swings on his swing and pretends to hit my. So I go flyinging like a Kamaza hit me. Oh, ya, a Kamaza is a big Soviet truck. Anyway, I played with him for a while and then said that was enough, well he did not think so, so he hit me for real, really hard. I went down like a sack of potatoes and landed on a cement pad. Wow, I am still in a little bit of pain , but praise God I did not break anything, just bruised a few bones. Please pray for the church in Ua while we are gone. we have a lot of young Christians who are still weak.

One More Sheep

Praise God a middle aged man named Valarie got saved last night!!! He has been coming for a while but every time one of us talks to him about Salvation he makes excuses, etc. But last night Dad asked him if he wanted to believe, and he just prayed all on his own. Praise God!!

The rest of life has been good. Sorry I have not updated in a while. I'll give you all a better update later, but right now I have to get back to school. Thanks for the prayers. Hey Elisabeth, who broke their wrist??

By the way Todd. Sorry to hear about your dad. I just found out about it a few days ago. We have been praying for him and your whole family. Hope he feels better soon!! :)

Back Soon

I'm still in Germany. I think we are leaving on Thursday. The trip has been really good, and busy. I had a really good time hiking all day Saturday with some friends on the Holland-Germany border. Sunday I got to witness to a guy from central Africa. He came to church and dad was talking to him and mentioned that I am into running, wow, that got him talking. He opened right up and loved that I knew all about central Africa their, best runners and he LOVED that I know some Swahili!! Please pray for him. No I do not know his name as he would not tell me. Germany has a lot of people who live here illegally and can not say who they are or where they are from because the government will kick them out. He did not even tell me where he was born, just that he had llived in Burundi, Tanzania, Kenya, Uguanda, Zambia, and DCR. Running here is awesome!!! Tons of hills and the weather is great!!!! It's nice to be around westerners again. Dad preached at a church in Hiedelburg last Thursday and the spirit was great. Hearing him preach in English was very strange as he has not in over two years. It did not seem like the same person. Most of our doctors appointments are over and the Mercedes is finally registered so it can come in to Ukraine. Thanks for your prayrs. See y'all later!!

DE
