Just a Little Update

Well, we are about half way through our mission here in Spain and things are going vary well, great. The church is amazing and the people are so warm and friendly they are so thankful for the help and ministry of our church in California. We have had to adjust our schedule to fit the lifestyle here in Spain. We get up about 8 a.m. and then breakfast and off to the church to work at 9. We work until about 3 then lunch which is the big meal, so they say, every meal is big. Then after a 2 hour lunch everything shuts down due to the heat until 7 p.m. Then people start coming out of their homes for the evening. We eat dinner about 10 or 11 and we have been up until 1 or 2 visiting with people from the church in their homes or at one of the many outdoor eating sites on the streets downtown. We have been doing some prayer walking at night as well as leading worship for services. This Sunday I´m going to preach if we have an interpreter and also do some worship along with the team sharing their testimonies. We will board a high speed train on Sunday afternoon for Madrid and spend the night. Our flight home leaves at 1 p.m. on Monday. Once again the mission field is wide open and we have an open door and some wonderfull relationships here that I expect a return trip in the future. The team has been great and so flexible we have to adjust our days work several times depending on who our local boss was for the day, sometimes many times in a day. I don't know when we will have access to a computer again so I will say bye for now.

We were saddened to hear the news about Wally Brown and we are praying for Kathy Malcolm and the entire family. We love you guys and pray Gods peace and presence will be with you through this time.

In Christ
Pastor Bill
