Contrary to popular belief the new town had more life than the last and was great, we were split into pairs or threes for host families and we drew the lucky card, our family had a villa in the hils complete with swimming pool and our own bathroom, bathrobes, and when we had replied we liked museli in the morning they had bought 4 kinds along with half a pastry shop!
It was the first time in nearly 6 months i wasnt sleeping in a bunk bed on the floor or a lilo, we had hot water and a flipping pool! I couldnt believe it, i felt like a queen. After india we had been delayed and put in a 5 star hotel, the other night a family had hosted all 37 of us to dinner in the hills and waited on us hand and foot and now this!
The new church was so organised, despite being only a church of 200 they fed 1000 people a month, worked with youth, rehab for adicts, immigrants, hosted christmas dinner for epople who couldnt do their own, sports for under priviladged kids and to top it all their guy running it all was gorgeous....can i live here please!?
The first night out their team was as big as ours and we hosted a short programme in one of the main avenues, quick dances, dramas and a testimony of how someone came to know jesus, flyering and talking to people before moving to one of the squares where we had a stage as well as our sound system although the numbers werent many in the second square this morning the pastor had already had a couple of people phoning him to find out more.
we went out this morning, armed with flyers and heading for a cafine hit before proceeding out to speak to people, it suited us, you could approach people how you felt comfortable, the town was nice and active and it was sunny! whats more three of us would be in the pool for the siesta ;)
