Lazy

Sorry it has been so long since we have updated. It has been a combination of laziness, lack of patience with extremely slow and inconsistent Internet and we are in the midst of putting together a website.
Anyway, we will be sending out an email in the next day or so giving you a longer more detailed update on the happenings out here. But in the mean time here are something’s that have been going on.
Both Justin and Gretchen are leading Bible studies on Saturday mornings. Gretchen is going through the book of Philippians and Justin is going through the book of First Samuel.
We are still going through the book of John on Sunday mornings. We just got through chapter ten, we hope to finish it before summer time.
You can pray for our students, we believe that the majority of our group does not know Christ yet. We have been praying for conversion grown and there is great potential for this. Pray that Jesus would be their consuming fire. Our hearts are heavy for these young people, we long for them to know the exceeding joy that they can have in Jesus Christ! Please be on your knees for them.

Finally, below is a picture of what it looks like out from our building to the parking lot area or parking trap however you view. The window that we took the picture at is in the hallway right outside of our apartment. Anyway, that building there (the smaller one) the one with the blue netting hanging from it is about to be knocked down, we think. We don’t know all of what is going on, but we do know that this place has become or always has been a brothel among other things I am sure. Anyway, they will knock this building down, but the problem is we don’t think they will clean it up. We are good at that in Albania, knocking things down. Well we just thought we would share with you what it looks like now and then show you what it will look like in a few days or so.


The pictures below are pictures of the road that our church is on and the movie, yes that is me walking through the middle of the construction zone, yes this is normal mom.
