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.
