ATL. Ask The Lord. For those of you that have forgotten or haven’t read my blogs yet. Sometimes it’s hard for us to rely completely on the Lord. We like having a little control over what we do. Egypt was cancelled this month…. 80 missionaries in the middle east for 3 months is a little tough to cover up. We were forced to rely on God on where we were going. One of the girls on my team got a word from God that we were supposed to go to Montenegro. None of us had really heard of it, or even knew where it was. We prayed about it amongst ourselves, then AIM decided to give us 3 options of where to go. Bulgaria, Albania, and well Montenegro. They had no idea that we had been praying about it. Awesome!
There was a catch. AIM had never sent anyone to Montenegro. We had no contacts, no place to stay, nothing, and even worse was they use the euro here as currency. Euro should be defined as you can’t afford this. Good thing God provides. Before we even arrived in the country Anna had found a contact, a free place to stay, and SHOWERS. God is good. I hadn’t had a good shower since August 9th.
26,000 people in the city we are in. 3 Christians. Huge language barrier. Everyone is Muslim. Our ministry here has been completely different from Romania. We’ve been praying as a team A LOT. All night prayer even. We’ve been trying to build relationships with a few locals and dedicating all of our spare time to them. Our game plan is to listen to God a lot, and act on it. He’s opening doors, now we are just praying for Him to open some hearts. Please pray for us!!! Pray for the people of Ulcinj.
And I should add that the title of this blog is the name of a band that a man we are talking to here is in. He’s the drummer. Check em out on youtube. This truly made my month…
