Another visit!!

August 27, 2006

This time Rachel from Christian Celebration came out.  I have never met her before so it has been interesting getting to know each other.  Yesterday morning we spent quite a long time doing a mamoth cooking session.  The pastor was arriving back after 3 weeks and I wanted to leave him and the family a cake…cookies were needed for gifts and visits…a huge rice pilaf was needed for the young adults group and we wanted a cake for ourselves!  Phew!  Here is me with some of the results:

An amazing thing happened too - You can so tell that many people are praying!!!  My landlord came round for something and asked about my washing machine.  I explained and he was quite angry with the company and said he would ring them first thing tomorrow and demand a refund.  Hurahhh!!!!  Let’s pray that he has more success than I had!  Anyway, I was able to furnish him with chocolate cookies so that was nice!

 

It was also the 2nd young adults group today.  They came and ate, and stayed 6 hours!!  We had a good time and played a game to get to know each other more.  A couple of the boys arranged to meet together for prayer.  And we hope to do a ’spiritual survey’ together next time to find out where our strengths and weaknesses our so we can pray and encourage each other.  I was very encouraged! 

Here is the group plus Rachel, and me and Coretha who will soon be leaving to study in the US. emoticon  Please pray for more single girls to join us.  She was the only one!  (apart from me!!)

 

Beth’s visit

Beth (a friend from Bible College) came to visit me last week.  It was lovely to see her and just spend some time chilling out.  Unfortunatly I had a bad cold most of the time and spent most of my time blowing my nose and feeling weary - but I survived!! 

 

On Saturaday morning we went to a market and bought a flower box for my balcony.  You won’t believe how happy this has made me!!  It is so beautiful!  (And so is Beth!)

We visited the floral park which was lovely…

And Hilary a girl I am doing weekly bible studies with took us to a castle for the afternoon

Friends are a good gift from God!
