I found spain, its in alcala!

It been nearly two weeks, im starting to get used to stuff, the hectic timetable the spanish services, living in community (having 3 min showers and sleeping in bunkbeds again) but there have been some upsides too. I have met a woman who is part of a team working in Angola it was pretty exciting to listen to someone working out there and wondering how they could link with Dignity, even if this was the only reason i was out here was to connect these two groups of people it would have been worth these two weeks, it was amazing to start to meet more people with a vision for a country and believe god has put this in them because he has a heart for that nation, and cares what happens.

There was no paperwork or easy orientation for this place is was straight into the obsticles of worship, intercession and spiritual warfare! the teaching is perceptive and exreemly interesting although with so little time to ponder and process so much it can be a little overwhelming.
There was one pastor who taught in the first week who kept talking about not wasting this time and going back unchanged he un-nervingly looked at me everytime he said it and the end of today´s (2.5hr, refridgerated, spanish) service was no exception. Id love to ask him what it is that he keeps not saying when he looks at me but i guess theres always a reason why people dont say those things! and im sure come the end of the DTS he´ll speak his mind.

Hannah a typically loud (but extreemly funny) american and i had bonded over a stupid joke and the realisation that having an inappropriate sense of humor wasnt always a bad thing (just one you had to be careful before unleashing live and unplugged) decided to escape the cabin fever and take out precious day off to go to a town of Alcala, this place was spain! tiny streets with balconies and lanterns, plazas with tapas bars and amazing coffee on pedestrianised streets benieth amazing architecture. This was the place, why were we based in horrid torrejon!? still it was nice to be somewhere so gorgeous and escape, sit in the sun and drink coffee, walk round beautiful cathedrals and get trigger happy with surreal over exposed lonely black and white shots.
