Life in the COUV

So we've been here for over a week now, and to be perfectly honest the first week was very difficult. We have never lived in a big city before now. Walking a few blocks to the nearest Main Street was an eye opener. Tracy and I were not used to so many people on the street and all the little shops, with groceries stores selling their produce on every corner was...well it was just like the movies. I actually went to a laundry mat where we dropped of my pants for alterations, and had some spare keys made, all at the same place...we certainly aren't in Kansas any more. We have had some amazing interactions thus far. Tracy has been meeting a number of women at the park, and I was able to connect with the financial officer at the bank, as we were opening up an account, and I actually had the chance to tell him about Jesus and I gave him a Bible, he was so thankful. A few days later we had a young man come over to hook up our Internet and we had some great conversations, next thing you know we're setting up a time to have coffee. The Lord is amazing! As a matter of fact, Tracy and I were getting groceries and we were making small talk with a young family who have two kids and they want to connect again with us! Please continue to pray that we would allow the Holy Spirit to guide us as we follow up and as we reach out to our community. Thank you. ~Cecil
