After a long delay...

The summer is flying by. We have had six teams come to help with our new building and the progress and the change has really been amazing. We will have a five week break through August and then the teams start back up again in September. Not as steadily as it has been for the summer but right now we have five teams scheduled for September and October.

Last week we also had youth camp. We ended up having to do the speaking, worship, morning devotional, activities... you get the picture, ourselves. But it was a great time with the teenagers and a great time with the leaders from our Austrian fellowship's youth ministry. Two of them helped out by preaching on consecutive nights. On the final night we had some youth baptized in the Holy Spirit and the presence of God was very much around us. It was a fun week and it was great to see the girls and guys get to know each other and really form a community. There were 10 students total and their nationalities were literally worldwide. A few from China or Taiwan, one from Ethiopia, a few Austrians and a couple of North Americans/Europeans. It really was an international group!
