Trip Across Europe DAY #6
Jonas and I were invited to a men’s breakfast at Justin’s church this morning which is about 15 minutes away. They had a special speaker from Norway who was very funny, and very inspiring. He gave a testimony about his life, and also spoke of the power of the Holy Spirit in the areas of healing and prophecy. Another staff member and some of the CDTS students came with us. We also got to meet some new people and fellowship with them, including an older gentleman who was a missionary in Mozambique during the war. What awesome stories I got to hear. I also had the speaker lay hands on my back and pray for it as it has still been bothering me. Definitely felt something happen. Then he came up to Jonas, not knowing him at all, and asked if he played a musical instrument. Jonas responded that he played guitar. The speaker encouraged him that he would use this in mighty ways for God’s kingdom, and that he was going to at some point in his life meet someone named Julian, and that Jonas was going to have a great impact in his life.

Then we went with some staff members, Rick and Sue, to Starbucks and hung out talking to them over a cup of coffee. From there we drove to Warwick Castle, which is the best kept medieval castle in England. It was a lot of fun. We got to walk around the castle, see an enactment of two guys fighting with different weapons. Then we saw a bird show, which was cool. We tried to get up on top of the castle walls, but there had been an emergency up there with someone. All of the sudden emergency vehicles and a helicopter came, and we were not allowed up there. We prayed that the person that had the emergency wasn’t seriously injured, and that they would come to know Jesus, if they didn’t already. So then we went inside the castle and saw all the different rooms was realistic looking figures of historical figures connected with the castle (I think). The rooms were so ornate, too. Anyway, it was a fun trip.

After dinner at the school, we were able to join the CDTS staff and students in playing “Apples To Apples,” and then I had a chance to take out the guitar and lead the group in worship for a little while. I am really glad that we have been able to be with the staff and students here. Connections are definitely being made. I know that God has awesome things in store for the staff and students over the next six months during their CDTS. God has been so good to us on this journey.
