Solo Dios!


Hola from Espana! Here we are, finished with day 2 of classes. We have had a great time so far and we are all loving the experience. Yesterday, Monday, was a little slow in the morning but picked up full speed for the evening class. We had a total of 35 students for the 7-9 pm class.

Today was great and we had many more students in the morning. We split up our intermediate group and had Julie and I teaching one group while Arinn and Kim worked with the other. Stephanie worked with the little kids (big surprise) and Shaun with the advanced group.

One of the most incredible things that we have seen on this trip is the love that these people poor out to each other and to us. The members of the church are so sweet and open up their hearts and homes to us. The God that we serve is truly an amazing God. We have all seen that it does not matter what language we speak or what country we are from, God is Great!! He is working in so many amazing ways with East Park Church.

We are blessed to share this week with this extended family!
Out to dinner on Sunday in downtown Sevilla.
We had 15 of us walk around the city and for dinner. What a wonderful evening!

In the coming days please help us and pray for the following areas at East Park Church:
1) That the next steps wou
ld be made clear for those that are attending the English camp.
2) If the door opens, that we can share truth with the students and be a spark that starts an incredible fire for Jesus.
3) Encouragement for Pepe for our presence to be a reminder of the love and support that they have from around the world.
4) That we all will continue to maintain a positive spirit and to keep Jesus at the forefront of our trip.

Things are we are Thankful for, Praises!
1) Our safe journey here and that all of our luggage arrived safely.
2) The positive attitude of all 6 of us and the love and laughter that we share.
3) The attendance has grown each day for our English camp.
4) So many familiar faces from last year are back again this year!

Ciao,

Lisa (Arinn, Stephanie, Shaun, Kim, & Julie)

Here is our chauffeur Shaun!
