Yesterday we went to the government office before our German class in the morning to apply for our Visa. Carrie, our team member met us there to help translate to make the process go smoother. Right as we walk up to the waiting area they come out asking for the next in line....and well we were the line (this was a blessing since its a rather long process and only two employees that can input the request so even if you are the only one waiting you can wait for an hour). While we were there everything went smoothly, we had every document that was requested. Praise God! We paid and were told to pick them up in a week (even though we were expecting for it to take four weeks)! We have had many blessings so far. Please continue to pray that the process goes smoothly as we pick up our Visa and nothing unexpected comes up.
Also be praying. We have invited our entire german class to come over for a meal. Be praying for opportunities to share about God and the words to say considering for many our only common language is German. That is going to be a week from Thursday. Also be praying, some of the guys from class are interested in coming and playing soccer with Seth and some guys from our church tomorrow night. Also a couple from class are interested in coming to an English speaking bible study through our church this next Wednesday even though they are catholic. Please be praying for all of these opportunites that God has been blessing us with as well as language learning. German is going well but we still have a long way to go.
Are you serving American dishes to the German class or Austrian recipies? Pray a blessing especially on that evening of fellowship!!
ReplyDeleteEveryone was supposed to bring something that is native to their country....not everyone did but we did have a nice variety. So it wasn't just based on us. But we made Tacos, which isn't really American but we did it with some of the Chipotle recipes we know so I think it was distinct to us :)
