It's finally Friday

It's rainy and cold today in Siegen, but it's also Friday and we're ready for the weekend. Life has been so busy here, but we wouldn't have it any other way. As Nick would say, "We're living the dream," and truly we are. When I sit back and think about how amazing it is that we get to be here in Germany, serving the students, staff and ultimately the Lord, I am totally blessed. Nick and I are learning so much, not just about Germany, the culture here, the students, but more importantly, the Lord is showing us more about ourselves and how He is working in us to make us complete. Sometimes it's hard... sometimes it's real hard, but at the same time, it really is a huge blessing to be here. Our days are long and filled with many challenges, but Nick and I have already seen our faith grown so much. The Lord truly is faithul. He is so Good. He has provided for our every need and more. I have had the blessing of being able to take the German class at the Bible college and it had been a blast! Next week we are having a midterm, and it's probably going to be the most delicious midterm ever - hopefully! The test will be our class making pizza, but of course, we can only speak German, so if I want to be sure to get a yummy pizza (and a good grade) I will need to know what I am saying. I can't wait! Another exciting thing coming up is that in a month and a half we are going to be leading an outreach team to Belgium with about 4 or 5 students and we are getting excited. Please pray for wisdom as we plan this trip; we want to be sure that we choose the right places to stay and towns to visit. We actually just received an email from a missionary in Belgium that wants to meet with the team while we are there, so that's exciting.
