Hey Guys,
So today we woke up with a suprise. Stephen could not find his wallet! So he called the credit card company and put his card on hold while he began looking for it. And being the great friend that I am, I rolled over and went back to sleep for an extra 30 minutes. It turns out that it slipped into one of the action packers. But he did find it after about an hour.
We really had nothing to do this morning so we went to the Lghthouse at about 11. We had tea (my favorite) right when we got there. We discussed our plans and it sounds like Stephen and I will be going to Camp Gideon on Friday with the college kids. And guess who is driving???RACHEL!! Ya, very, just imagine a blonde American girl driving in the streets of Estonia in a huge Deisel engine astro van type monster! It will be an experience.
We had a great day of just relaxing with the kids and just getting to know them a little bit better. There are some very sad stories coming from these kids pasts. The Lighthouse is such a great place for these kids to grow in the adolesence years aswell as developing a relationship with Christ.
We left the Lighthouse and went to a GREAT resteraunt. Once again, compliments of Segei. It is called a "pancake" place but I think its more of a crepe type place. I got a crepe stuffed with Bacon and smoked cheese....hmm..hmm.hmmm..TASTY!! It was very good. After dinner with the entire crew, Rachel, Stephen, Emily, and I went to Apteegi (this is what we are calling the Generation 2 House) and we went to a prayer. It was very neat but difficult because after hearing an hour long prayer in Russian while standing up, you just start to notice your legs a little bit more, and then you feel the back get stiff, and then your mind starts to wonder, and before you know it, you forget that you are talking to the creator of the universe. Well maybe I can try it again sometime. Rachel and I went for a little walk around Old Town afterwords and then returned to the BMC. The guys went to pose for the webcams in our "suits" (if you get curious about suits, just ask my dad, he can explain). Lets just say that it was an experience for us, and all the people around us. Not to mention a great way to end the day.
Tomorrow is our last day at the Lighthouse so I want to ask you all to please pray that we can bring Christ's love to them tomorrow and really change some lives.
I love you guys and I am so excited to see you all. We have so many stories so we might have to have a story/dessert night at our house when we return....mom and dad, this is me asking permission???
God Bless You All,
David
