In twenty minutes, I’m getting on the plane to Frankfurt, Germany, which is the beginning of 41 days on the road in Europe. We will be working with English-speaking churches in Germany, Ireland, and Scotland to help them either establish or advance their FriendSpeak programs. Then I will be conducting a workshop in Turkey. After that it is Italy (5 churches), France, Spain, Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic, and back to Germany to touch base with works interested or possibly interested in hosting Let’s Start Talking teams.
There are going to be lots of trains, planes, and automobiles, hopefully without the adventures of the movie by the same name! Lots of meetings, lots of working meals, lots of new beds, but mostly lots of new people.
I guess you can see that this is not a vacation–never more than two nights in the same location, but that’s OK. The part we enjoy are the conversations about the kingdom, with people we may not know but with whom we have so much in common because we are all about sharing the Good News.
Although my blog may be a little sporadic while we travel, I will certainly try to stop long enough to share with you some of the special pleasures of our trip.
Time to board. Pray for us as we pray for you!
