Estonia Lighthouse VIM update - Thursday

Ok, so I hate to break the news to you, but this is going to be my last e-mail. Camp Gideon does not have very fast internet. But anyways here is the interesting stuff that happened to me today.

Stephen and I headed on a little adventure to the grocery store. We picked up a few things as well as a little present for Ben Dalton as he arrives tomorrow. It was really chilly this morning and a little bit rainy, but it turned out to be a very nice day.

We jumped on the tram and headed over to our last day at the Lighthouse. Today was a very special day for them because they have three students that are graduating from primary school. So pretty much all morning and afternoon we spent getting ready for a party that we put on for them. It was great and I think that it was a very special tme for them. We stayed at the Lighthouse til about 5 o cock today and headed straight into Old Town. We ate at a very good resteraunt called the Turg (You guessed it, compliments of Sergei). I got a very tasty pork roast. UMMMMM....so good!

Today was one of our friends 23rd birthday. His name is Denis but some of you might know him as Tahiti. He always keeps us laughing. So we headed over to Apteegi and it turns out that it was a surprise party. We played some very fun games and just enjoyed ourselves. We had a very good cherry cake and bread of course. I had a very fun surprise....I think some of you know a guy named Andrei. He is from Finland and is the cousin of Erkii and nephew of Artur. I met him the very first time I was here and ran into him at the party tonight. And it turns out that he is going to camp Gideon this week! I am sooooooo excited!

After the party we headed back to the church with all of our Generation 2 freinds and stopped for some Italian Ice Cream! It was amazing. We got to the church and played jungle pong for about 2 hours. (Jungle Pong is a very intense type of ping pong game played with about 5 players.) It was a very fun night. And some of you might have seen us go and pose for the webcam.

It is very late right now and I am about to head for bed. I have REALLY enjoyed writing these e-mails and hope that you have liked reading them. This has been such a great trip and there is still ONE WEEK left (for some of us)!!!!!! Thank you so much for your prayers, I am so excited to share all of my stories with you guys! I love you all and thank you so much for the continuous encouragement for me on this trip. Pray that God will do amazing things this week at Camp Gideon.

In Him,
Dave
