We were blessed by staying at a wonderful camp where we were taken care of. We had our own beds, showers, toilets, and plenty of food. Building relationships with the teenagers has been awesome! I love these kids. They are growing so much in their faith and preparing to be disciples. Having discipleship class in church was on my mind before I left. So it was fitting to start this journey at a camp for discipleship. I feel like in most of our churches now of days there are no preparing people to be disciples. Sometimes there is a class for new members and Sunday classes, but to me that doesn’t really prepare me as well. How are we to witness to others when we feel lost in the scripture as well? So during this camp I wasn’t just teaching or being an example to them they taught me many things at the same
time.
For the last couple of weeks, we have been praying for God to show us where He wanted us to go. Unlike the rest of our squad, our team only had a place and ministry until the July 28th and then we have 2 ½ weeks of trying to figure out everything on our own. We don’t have contacts and not a whole lot of money. Thankfully, our Lord is always faithful. It has been awesome not having anything planned out for us and relying completely on God for everything. He has spoken Greece to us for a while. It wasn’t until we were about to leave did He give us what we needed. Thank you Jesus!!! He kept saying wait. What a blessing it has been to wait and see Him show up! Ivan and Dani (pastor and his wife who run the camp) have blessed us by allowing us to stay at their summer house. They told us not to get our hopes up because it wasn’t that nice. OH MY GOODNESS!!! I would totally live here. It is so cute! The two of them built it themselves with scraps that people threw out. We are in walking distance from their church. Also, the teenagers live around the area so they pop in to hang out. They already have things they want to do with us. Plus, they have blessed us with food from the camp to use, we get to pick from their garden, and they have invited us over for meals some nights. Jesus you are AMAZING!! We get to stay here for a week. Then we met a couple from Greece one night at camp. They have found a place for us to stay starting Aug. 5th to the 17th for FREE!!!! What?!?!? Now we are still waiting for God to show up big there also for a ministry. We will see where He leads us there. So excited!!!
