The Easter holiday has already come and gone... WOW this year seems to be flying by. I can’t believe I’ll be half way through my two year term come April 28th. I look back and the last year has been nothing but a pure joy and blessing.
Weather: Finally after 6 months of cold dark winter I am finally seeing what looks and feels to be like a hint of spring. Who knew the mid 40’s felt so nice! It’s wonderful to see people out on the streets again and children playing on the playgrounds. It feels like everyone is finally making their way out from their winter hibernation.
Roadblock: Usually as most of you know I go out to the village of Olsztynek on Tuesdays and teach English using Bible stories. Well a group here called Catholic action has found out about our work and has seen how successful it has become. Its gone from 5 children when we first started to now 20 children coming faithful each week to hear about the Bible stories. Because the group has begun to give us some opposition. The polish pastor is having several meetings with the leaders of this group and hopefully somehow we will be able to continue our work there.
New addition: The polish pastor that we work closely with and his wife welcomed their first child into the world on March 17th. Piotr (Peter) was 7lb. 6oz. and 21 inches long. Both baby and mom are doing wonderful!
