This is my first time in Europe (besides the one day I left the airport in England). What an amazing place. In Germany I was impressed with these beautiful small villages where all the houses have red roofs and are encircled by farm fields that look like patchwork. Here in England the brick homes that line the streets remind me of a street in Winnipeg called Wellington Crescent (but not nearly as large).
Today we had a really great meeting with a man named Phil. Phil has been working with YWAM and particularily the School of Biblical Studies (SBS) in Europe for around 15 years. He gave us a really warm invitation to bring Titus Project to Europe. This is so important from a man who knows the most about the different YWAM bases here. Having his blessing will mean a much easier integration for us to join this European YWAM community.
Please keep praying for us as we travel to Sweden tomorrow. We are really sensing the value in this trip for bringing clarity and direction. Today as we prayed I felt God give me picture of a farmer. Imagine the perfect farming conditions, think of Manitoba or Saskatchewan. It is a large bountiful harvest of wheat…a bumper crop if you will. But then the farmer takes the abundance of food and brings what is needed to the hungriest parts of the world. In a similar way we are doing the same thing. Taking the abundance of SBS graduates in Europe since there are so many and bringing them to teach in the hungriest parts of the world.
