Well, we are here. Mary and I arrived at 9am (2am US time) and were met by Miriam and her baby son, Silas. What an adorable 3month old baby!; she brought us to the home where we will stay while in Bremen-- Nunia, from Figi, and her husband, Ola, from Denmark. What a sweet couple to open their home to us.
After a nice nap, Nunia and a friend, Vivian, took us on a walking tour of the old part of the city. Oh, I could never have imagined what old buildings look like! Some were dated back to the 1400s. I took lots of pictures until my batteries ran out. I plan to go back to that area on tuesday.
Tomorrow, we leave around noon for the retreat in Noiden--on the coast of the North Sea- I will write all about it and take lots of pictures.
Until then, please pray for us--that we have a safe trip and that Mary and I will show these children and their parents God's love for them. It is truly a blessing to see how other Christians live around the world--they are our brothers and sisters in Christ.
By the way--all of my luggage arrived with me!! Praise God!!

Dear Grammy,
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that your luggage came with you. If only it will do that when you come back. :)
Have you tried any food? What is your favorite German food? I just tried pineapple upside down cake for the first time and I loved it.
Are you going to go to Berlin? Are you going to drive on the Autobahn?
I love you and I miss you.
Your Grandaughter,
Grace
