recape on the first 2 1/2 weeks ... more to come


Hey everyone

I am doing alright at the weekend we got 3 more trainees. A couple from Canada and an American guy. Now we are fully completed and i am really excited for how we will be challenged.
We are here at the lodge about 100 people from 26 nations that are living together. My room is in the 1st floor and i share it with a girl from Switzerland and 2 Egyptians. I love them. Some times the culture difference is something that we struggle with but i love to learn more about they're culture and to learn some Arabic.
 We are working together with the livechurch here and to see these kids so broken is sooo hard. I somehow don't know how to handle it. When we've been there for the first time i felt so insecure and i didn't knew how to go to these kids and start a conversation with them.
At the weekend we had an amazing sunny spring day. I went to Manchester with 4 others for a bmx world competition with some of the Olympic athletes. 2 of my friends where real close to be part of that race, one second made the difference why they couldn't qualify. It is an amazing sport and it was an wonderful trip.
Yesterday we started cleaning the old tennis court, with the kids at the base, to make it a basketball court for us.
I wish you all a wonderful and blessed week i try to update some pic soon.
Love you all xxx
where i live :)

update

Hey guys
sorry for this long overdue update. Will be a short one since all of my roommates are already sleeping and i have to get up early tomorrow. Breakfast is always at 7.
I settled in here perfectly it was more like coming home. I love the people I live with and they're hearts are so amazing.

I want to ask you to pray for us that we may grow closer together and for provision for all of us since we have to raise 900 pound for each one of us within the next 2 weeks to go on outreach for the Philippines.

I will try to write an update tomorrow with more that is going one till then be blessed
love you xx
