The last weekend was really stressed. But before you make any wrong conclusions let me explain how it went.
Everything started Friday morning, Friday the 22nd of February. It was the inauguration day of the PróSERTÃO and CEF (Child Evangelism Fellowship) office in Teresina. This ment that the swiss missionary Simon Reifler, the local Pastor and his wife - Pastor Valter and Rozi and I had to go up to Teresina. Simon had that day too a meeting with the PróSERTÃO leadership, this ment that we had to leave Barão 6am. When we arrived in Teresina Simon went straight to the meeting and I helped out with the last preparation for the inauguration party in the evening. The evening went well and it was a very nice service. (For picture please visit the PróSERTÃO Facebook fanpage)
Well now comes the reason why this weekend was so tiering. Because our church was celebrating on the Saturday as well as on the Sunday the second birthday we had to get back to Barão asap. The first event started 8am on Saturday morning. So we left right after the inauguration in Teresina and we were back in Barão at 1:30am on Saturday morning. The drive back was 100% in God's hand. We were at least twice close to a bad accident during our drive back home. So that night we didn't have that much sleep. 8am Saturday morning we left for a bike trip through the interior of Barão. It was a great time with the youth that came along and here to God protected us, because all of us fell at least once with the bikes but no one got injured. (Pictures from this event will be posted later)
Well the programs that were scheduled for this weekend went on. Saturday night we had a public service where a singer (DFAM - youtube / facebook) was leading worship.
Sunday morning was more relaxed then Saturday. We started with a putlock breakfast and went on with a small devo which ended with the washing of each others feet. (Here are the pictures to the preparation work and Sunday)
Well now some words to myself. I have my flight booked to Switzerland. I'll be landing on the 7th of May in Switzerland. My plan is to stay there for approximately three months, to work and get my money together to pay my last year of studying in Canada. My plan is too, to get back to Canada on the 21st of August to finish my CLBI degree. By finishing this degree I'll have the BACS (Bachelor of Applied Christian Studies). Hier is a document explaining the requirements as well what it is.
So that was it, the next post will probably be after my trip to Sento Sé. (for mor informations about Sento Sé, please the last article)
