My first week in Ireland has been an exciting time for me. I am
learning more about my team members, which God has soveriegnly teamed me
with a dynamic group of personalities to stretch me in many ways, but
for now I can see in this season He is showing me how to be more
gracious toward my brother and is giving me plenty of opportunities to
practice humility.  God has
given us grace to allow daily Feedback sessions to resolve any conflict
issues as a family within our family. I have enjoyed my “family”,
that being my team, in recreational activities like touring Dublin via
a scavenger hunt, picnics, and a softball game we played yesterday.

Example of an Irish sign…translated signs are found all over.
 
Got to take a tour of Trinity College and see The Book of Kells on exhibit there.
 
 Got to see St. Patrick’s Cathedral on our scavenger hunt….St. Patrick’s is the largest cathedral in Dublin.
 
But primarily, this first week was mainly a training camp to get
reacquainted with our teams from the last time we met in May, to build
each other up through prophetic words, and to draw closer in to hearing
God through worship, prayer, and being still/silent. One can say this
week was an equipping camp before we, the soldiers, are sent out to the
Enemy’s camp to take back what he stole from us and the Lord.

We are on our way to Galway, Ireland for 2 1/2 weeks. Can’t wait to see
what God has for us there to do and to enjoy in the fruits of our labor.
