April is off to a quick start for us. Language continues to go well as we take the opportunity to practice and train daily. Our friends form Montana enjoyed Olomouc and it was the cheapest city on their European tour thus far. Staying in our flat for free plus a great dinner out and cheap snacks for the train totaled about $2o. Do be aware when you come, however, they were kicked off the train from Prague because an incorrect ticket had been purchased. This situation added to the total cost of the trip but in time another train was available and all was well. Pray for the International Messengers Mission Agency they represent. This group is hosting a meeting close by.
God is constantly revealing himself in even the small things. A call came to my cell regarding four chairs that had been ordered from a local store. I was sitting with my language coach who was able to coordinate the deliver with no charge. This was just in time for our guests to relax and enjoy this flat even more. I will be stoping by to thank the man that helped us order the chairs. He speaks little English but we are on speaking terms that will allow me to build on the relationship.
I shared Christ with a man on the street several weeks ago who professed Christ. His life is much different than yours or mine traveling the world but having no place he calls home. Interestingly, I saw him at the train station in Olomouc heading to France this week. We spoke as friends and he shared that his life is different because Jesus is alive! I asked him to be faithful to share in the Czech language since I am still unable. He was a blessing to send out.
