Sitting in Starbucks drinking some kind of hot chocolate and life in Germany is Good. Got my luggage last night which made life better. Met a new friend today in the park. Had some very interesting conversation about life in Germany.It was kind of chilly today in the big city. Love ya Family. Germany is a way cool place but would be better if you guys were here.

Hallo! Today was a lot of fun. At our park I didn't think I'd be able to talk to anyone because not many people were out because of the weather. But an hour before the weather left i was asked to play soccer game. I was gonna watch. All the players were very nice. I just ate pizza at a Turkish cafe. We are at Starbucks right now. The subway by the hostel is down. Bye

Guten Tag! we had an okay day today. It has been raining all day and no one has really been out and about today, so we went pr walking mostly. I forgot to tell you my new favorite drinks, 1 is called Mezzo Mix (coke and orange soda mix), and the other is the Banana Java chip from Starbucks! Mmmm! please pr that the rain will subside so we can talk to some people about...some stuff. Tshuss!

Today I talked to 3 different women one of them said they didn't believe in anything at all, another believed in an "energy" of some kind of higher power, and the third was a christian. I got to share a little with all of them and they all seemed really interested. I was very cool.

We had a pretty slow day today, It was uber cold and rainy. but god has been teaching me some awesome things through this whole thing. pr walking is so much easier now! this whole week has been about getting my focus off of myself and on God. It's rough, but it's way awesome. I love you all. Tschuss! p.s. please pr for warmer weather and no more rain!

Guten Tag! Hello eveyone! today it was very cold, wet, and rainy but God still worked in amazing ways. Everybody was able to talk to someone in some way today, which was good. When S and I were talking to a lady with her family, her husband came up and started talking to us for a while. The cool thing was that this man was the same man that T and C were talking to earlier! So they came up and got in on the conversation and after S and I left they got his email address so they can email him later. So pray for S and that relationship. Pray for all the trek groups also. Miss you! See you soon!

Guten Tag, Today was really great. When we were at out park, I talked to two Turkish boys. We talked about American soccer, roller coasters, and church. Unfortunately then didn't speak alot of English. I played soccer with them for awhile. They didn't like it that i beat them. They also said they wanted to meet Thursday and play some more with more friends.

Ok Hello Home! Today was really great. God is teachign me so much about Him and other people. Today was sowing day, where we prayer walked and talked to people. Prayer walking is amazing. God just really opens up my heart. I talked to one lady today with Ashley, her name is Edith, and we didn't talk about anything spiritual, but i learned that you have to be obedient to God, no matter what. I also helped Grace talk with another lady. Please pray for the people fo Germany and the trek groups. Tschuss!

EW

Hello! Today was awesome. We went out to sow today. Which is when we go out to talk to them. I talked to an English teacher so she was great at English that was a nice change. We still need prayer so keep comin please!

They were really nice but didn't know too much English, neither did a lot of the other people that we talked to. But we did talk to one who knew a lot and talked to us for a very long time about everything. It was a great day and hopefully we will see that lady again.

Hi everyone! We are finally in Germany! This has been a long weekend, but it was very intersting too. Everyone is very tired because we have been out on the town all day, but i have learned a lot. God has really taught me a lot about the culture and the people. Dad and my brothers, I love you! See you soon!

AK

Well we made it. Its been 32 hours since I've slept. And we walked around the city for six hours. Its an amazing place. We had Doner for lunch, a turkish food, it was very good! The hostel is nice and the Cathedral is unbelieveable. Well the day isn't over yet so bye mom and dad!

TH Beggs

Hello all! Germany is so beautiful! The people are so quiet and different. The language is very different as well. I really want to learn more of it though. I feel that God is already at work here and that we are going to continue it. I'm really excited about that!

KB, Edmond

Ouch! I have never been more exhausted, sore, and overhelmed in my life. Germany is beautiful but its kind of hard to enjoy it when you've been awake for 34 hours. Please continue to pray. I love you all!
