We had such a lovely time at the retreat in Bushmills over the weekend. We got to cozy up by the fire with a bunch of folks and have times of worship and games. We had an absolutely gorgeous walk along the North Coast, and ended up at the Giant's Causeway, the incredible formation of rocks pictured. We also explored a sea cave under Dunluce Castle, where boats must have moored long ago. It was so gorgeous and refreshing. We feel more ready to jump into the work in Belfast now.
Today we moved to a new location, about a mile from where we were. It is a smaller flat that we will be sharing with seven other people starting this coming week. (Four from the states, One from England, and two from South Africa).
We both know we're in the right place at the right time. We, along with another fella Drew, spent a couple days last week getting a little 'cafe' set up for the students in a ywam house. We tore out some of the kitchen and painted, it should be a nice place to get to know people.
This week, the dts starts. We will be going to teachings every day and doing local volunteer work, and meeting lots of new people this week.
Thinking of our family and friends worldwide...Thanksgiving given for you.
love,
Joseph and Christy
