Praises

These past two weeks have been days full of praises. It has been a time of being able to connect back with some people that we haven't seen in a while as well as a time of new learning and developing. A few of these blessing consist of being able to spend time with some of those from our German classes again, starting to plan our baby shower, making some set rules for the lernhilfe (after school tutoring program) so that it is consistent throughout the week with all of the different leaders, and starting our Ministering in a Muslim context online class (which has been awesome for the small things as well as the big things for all of those that we know that come from a Muslim culture).

Another big blessing was going to kind of like a flea market for only kids items but it is organized by a church or school. You can bring things to sell or just buy. We decided a while ago to go with cloth diapers for our child and since they are rather expensive so we decided to go to this flea market to see if they had any. We were able to find a box of barely used cloth diapers, some were even new for 30 Euros when normally they would cost altogether over 200 Euros. God really blessed us. We still only have about half of what we need but we are trusting that God will provide!

The last few days we took half a week of vacation and took a little trip to Vienna. It was our first time going and we were able to see some friends while we were there. It was really nice to have a little break and just be able to be tourists and enjoy our time together. It really is a beautiful city!


We went to the zoo with our friend Adam. In this room there were bats flying all around us. Really cool, kind of scary considering they would run into us frequently...however in this picture you can't see any bats. Unfortunate.


Also a few things to pray for is the situation with Seth's friend that is in prison. We are learning more things and realizing that Seth is able to help a little bit. Be praying for the situation, it is planned to have a court case in early December but we are hoping that it doesn't come to that. Also today I am meeting with the other female leaders of the youth group to discuss what we want to do with the girls small group considering the 20 girls that are coming is not small. Please give us wisdom on how to split things up. Thank you all for your prayers!
