Just finished packing for Hamburg, Germany.
About 30 of us from Christchurch leave this afternoon for a two week trip to visit Arche Church there. It’s an associate church of Sovereign Grace Ministries, and the pastors from both churches are looking to build more relationships. So, we’ll primarily be hanging out with a load of youths and students, getting to know them, and doing fun stuff together, including a trip to Berlin, the beach, and a waterpark. For a few more details, and a neat little map of our trip, check out Janelle’s post.
Please be praying for good fellowship this trip- that we’d not be hindered by the language barrier or cultural differences, but rather find sweet friendship around the Gospel. We’ll be sleeping on floors and sharing quarters, while driving long distances in mini-buses, so please pray as well for patience and good spirits. Not sure yet if we’ll have internet access, so I may not update again for another two weeks.
And, when I do get back, I’ll only have five more days in Wales. Quite a sad thought. Yet I look forward to what’s in store next.
I have no idea how I’m gonna fit everything in my bags, though. What can I chuck…?
