Every Nation Kirche Berlin

My time in Berlin was amazing, I can say with out a doubt that I left there changed. My heart still longs to go back there someday, preferably soon of course. The first week was spent missioning around the city of Berlin though mainly targetting the region of Friedrichshain which is where most of the younger generation live. The second half of my stay was spent touring the city and sending as much time with the Berlin team as possible, the mighty people that they are how could I not. Berlin is such a diverse city with so much to offer the world. To me it was an abnormal cross between Cape Town and London, however maybe a little more laid back than London and more culturally and artistically rich than Cape Town. I fell in love. Very excitingly we had a whole 17 salvations while on the mission which is a huge break through for the team. And this was just the beginning for them. I honestly cannot wait to see what God is going to be doing, or should I say exploding, in that country. Well in the entire of Europe actually.

Obviously I just have way too many photo's of my time in Berlin to post up here, so I have decided to put up some of the photo's we made the slideshow with.

The King of Garlic Saga

Out came the boys stories about them conquoring raw garlic, and naturally out came the dares for firstly the girls to eat cloves of raw garlic (which I'm proud to say we all did) and then for the guys to eat a whole bundel. Needless to say we all (though emphasis on the boys) STANK! Theboys went to BP after the braai and the poor cashiers had no idea what hit them, they could smell them 3 cashiers down. Danie even woke himself up at 4 in the morning from the stench and had to have another shower and episode of mouthwash before he could fall asleep again. The next morning at church was a joke. Garlic was oozing out of our pores, and it would be the day where our venue for church was changed and we all had to huddle in this tiny room full of sweaty people. Ya, not hard to imagine :)
