Settling in.

Today I helped with mothers and toddlers. Many unbelieving women bring their children here. It was an awesome chance to reach out to a practical need in the hopes of meeting their greatest need. The highlight of my day was spending time with Cerianne. She is a 17 year old girl that has been adopted by Allyson and Dave Hand (whom I'm staying with). We went on a two hour walk in the woods and around a castle and lake. Then had a girls night. She tried to brighten up my makeupless face and unkept hair. She tried making my fringes (bangs) to look like hers. The video shows that this failed and we covered it with a flower.

Please pray for the youth here. Tony Graham explained to me about the state of Christianity here. Only one percent of people in Wales are true believers. It is the youth that God is going to use. I know it. So girls like Cerianne will be the ones I want to really speak with this summer. A 23 year old guy here, Dave, is working his butt off to reach out to the teens.. especially the boys. I hope to get more involved with the girls that are a couple years youn

ger. Maybe that is the reason there aren't many singles here. So I can talk to these teens.

"For I know their works and their thoughts, and the time is coming to gather ALL nations and tongues. And they shall come and see my glory...From new moon to new moon, and from Sabbath to Sabbath, all flesh shall come to worship before me." (Is 66) All nations will be gathered. And I am praying that happens here. In Merthyr. Like Samuel, I want to beg the Lord to send me. Send me to the lost and broken. I would go on, but I don't want to write a book. I will leave you with pictures from our makeover date.
