The next day we were one our own again, able to continue settling in and catching up on sleep. Students arrived at the base throughout the day, and at about two o’clock we started our registration. Then at six, we had a barbeque as a welcome dinner for the Mobile DTS student. After that, we had our first worship session and afterwards I could already tell that God will be doing amazing things!
Now we have started classes and we have a daily schedule. Breakfast is at seven and then we have different sessions and teachings from 8:30 – 1:30. After that we have lunch and then have daily chores. My job is preparing for the next day’s lunch in the kitchen. Yesterday I must have diced a hundred tomatoes by hand and today I spent two hours peeling and cutting potatoes ….I am going to have much more appreciation for lunches from now on!
After our chores we have local outreach, which we haven’t started yet. But on Friday, I am going to another town to do ministry so I am very excited for that!
Our schedule for the rest of the school still hasn’t been decided, but I will be leaving for outreach (most likely somewhere outside of Europe) on December 17, so I no longer have a Christmas break…but I am looking forward to spending the holidays in a completely new culture!
Keep praying for the leaders here at the base, that they will be open to hearing God’s voice and know where we are supposed to go over the next six months. Also, pray for all the students of the Mobile DTS, that we can grow spiritually and continuing connecting with one another. Everyone gets along really well and I’ve already made several new friends. We are starting to get close as a team and it hasn’t even been a week which is amazing! We have several Germans, all with various levels of English, and many times I have been in the middle of German conversations. We also have people from England, Italy, Holland, Canada, India, and Africa. The people are really great and I can’t wait to get to know everyone here better.
