Yes we are still here! After a few days of getting settled, recovering from the outreach and getting back to the world after several days of sketchy internet and then a few of NO internet, we are back among the land of the living.
The outreach was a BIG success! We know that stories of God’s faithfulness and movement will really only come to us after several months of getting to know students and being a part of their lives, but it is so fun to watch the beginning of the process.
After 5 days of sports outreach and English Cafe, we ended the week with a BBQ hosted by our church staff. Von, Toni and Xhelo (pronounced Jay-low) came out as awesome servants to cook hotdogs for the 50+ that showed up at the Loft Friday afternoon. There was quite a buzz around the room “Did you hear there is something here tomorrow? Yeah, tomorrow there is a meeting here at 11! Every week this place is open. We can come. Yeah, let’s come tomorrow.”
And so a new year begins! Here are some photos from the week(click on an individual photo to see a larger view).
Hey… sounds like a great event! Wish I would have been around to help out. What did you think of the painting on the Loft wall?!?!?!?!
Miss you guys!
Incredible! What a great success! I love how you talk about the buzz, it’s so exciting!
