So after our time in Paderborn, we were both slightly nervous about our next ministry trip. The plan was for us to go to a German camp where German families vacation and to do a kids program. Normally, this would be great.... except for the fact that the majority of kids in Germany don't speak english. So we were praying that either God was bring a new ministry to us, or that this one would somehow work, but we were doubtful. When we went to go talk to our coordinator about the possibility of finding a new ministry for that week, we were asked by our friend Olly to go into her office. She told us that camp canceled on us last minute, but that she just found out that an english camp she was connected to was in a desperate need for two english speaking Christian females for the same exact week that we were supposed to be at the German camp. When they found out about us, they said that we were an answer to their prayers. We say the same thing about them!
So for the rest of our time here in Germany, we are really excited. Our english will no longer be a hinderence, but a blessing. We will spend a few days here at the office again, and help with some office work that they have been needing done, but no one has time to do. After that, we might get to travel for our last three days of ministry with the iThemba team that we went with our first week, and that we absolutely adore. Then we will have almost a week to spend with the couple that trained us at their home in the Black Forest region. We are also planning on that week to be our week to be tourists, and we're going to go to France and Switzerland. We are very excited about the remainder of our time here in Germany, and want to thank you all so much for your prayers. We appreciate you more than you will ever know.
Love and blessings,
Jenni
God is Good! It's so cool to see how faithful God has been to you, even through the homesickness and uncertain ministry plans! I am excited for you!!!
