A 26-year old gal learning just how much she needs Jesus

I’ve been here for 1 month!

April8

Wednesday was such a quiet day, and I helped Innes around the house with some things that needed to be done. I just put on my Ipod and disappeared into my own little world for a few hours. I spent the evening with Mark and Jesse and Jana.

Thursday I met with Tabea and Lori to talk about this Passover fest the church is doing in partnership with Jews for Jesus on the 12th. Then Lori and I went to WalMart! I’ve been there about 8 times already. There’s definitely differences between US and DE WalMarts, most noticably you have to put 1 euro in the shopping cart before it will unlock. Gotta keep those cart-stealers on the defensive. And they have a separate shopping area for bread (German bread is AMAZING), drinks, gardening, etc etc. Thursday evening I babysat Hanna and then talked to Lea on the phone for 1 & 1/2 hours!

Friday I helped Lori put up posters for their “English Conversation” meetings on Tuesday. We went to the Uni of Dortmund and ran around taping posters up everywhere. If I felt like ifI wouldn’t have made her nervous, I probably would have sung some dangerous theme music as we were doing it, but that didn’t seem very mature at the moment. In the afternoon I had cake and coke with Tabea at a very old German cafe, and then went shopping at H & M!

Friday night I went to play billiards and Mikael and I lost pretty badly, but that’s okay. We’ve adopted each other as brother and sister and we have unconditional love and support no matter how many times we scuffed the ball, or just hit the white ball toward nothing. And then I spent 1:00-3:00 discussing and debating God, marriage, relationships, the Bible, you name it.
