The culture is so different and it was so good to be somewhere that wasn't English speaking. It was a push...it was hard, challenging, exhausting, rewarding and incredible. I wish I could explain it, but like I said I'm very tired and I don't have much time. But also I know I mentioned that I (and Becca Billinslea) needed prayer getting back into Northern Ireland as customs is always a crazy to go through. It is getting harder and harder each time. With much prayer and not to much trouble both Becca and I got stamps of gold in our passports. So we are here safe and sound. What a blessing! God has been so faithful. You should all go and 'Czech' out Paul Bowman (our youth leader) his blog... www.livingloud.typepad.com and look at the youtube videos etc. Those are all from our time in Velka Upa at Pension (Hotel) Mileta. Thank you for all your prayers and support!

CZECH REPUBLIC
Well...it's been a while since I have posted anything. Sorry about that! But as you all may know, I was in the Czech Republic! I could probably write for hours, but seeing as its late and that I am still trying to catch up on sleep I'll give just a brief summary. The Czech Republic was indescribable . I have seen God work in ways that I have never seen before. I have seen lives changed, Czechs, Irish, Americans and the lot. God has been preparing me for this trip and for what I would be seeing there in the Republic. The Lord changed hard hearts and closed minds. Kids who didn't want anything to do with God or never thought of God were asking big questions at the end of the week.

LAST POST FOR A WHILE
Hey friends!
Sorry its been a little while since I've posted anything, but its been busy...and its just going to keep getting busier. So if you don't here from me for a while that doesn't mean i don't love you, it just means that im either not near a computer or im running about everywhere! This is probably the last post that I will be making for a while, because I'm headed off to the Czech Republic on Tuesday. I'm so pumped! Please be praying for my team and I while we are gone. Be praying for safe travel, because we will be doing a lot (especially by bus and train.) Pray that communication during English classes and throughout our time with the kids would be good and that we would be efective in sharing the love of Jesus through our words and actions. Also pray for our re-entrance July 28th... the customs people are sticklers in Belfast! Things here in Norn Iron are great, we had our first really BEAUTIFUL day today (the 4th of July!! which made me miss home a little bit) The people are amazing and I am learning new things every day. THank you for all your prayers! Love you and miss you!
