Hamburg and Stroubing

Hey! Internet access has been limited in these last few weeks since our last update from Berlin, so we do a quick overview to catch everyone up.

We spent 2 weeks in Hamburg after leaving Berlin. We stayed in the basement of a large church and participated in many of the ministries that the church already had established. Such as a homeless ministires, childrens after school care ministry, prostitute ministries and sharing at church and youth services. God used our group to light a flame in the hearts of the people that go to that church. Many evenings and days people from the church would just spend the day with us, drawn to our excitment and love for God. We also had the opportunity to go to a large public high school and share drama, dance and life experiences with the students throughout the day. It was so cool because we were told not to directly talk about Jesus and God but we were able to come up with many unique ways to share and love on the students without direct talk. I had the opportunity to go to an english class and talk all about YWAM and what we were doing in Hamburg and Germany which definietly got the students thinking and wanting to know more.

We took a 2 day, 12 hour train trip, with 9 different trains to get to Stroubing Germany. We have had the opportunity to share what we are doing in Germany in many different schools through their religion class. Dan and I had the chance to go to a local school for the Deaf and meet with the School Director and tour the school. Tonight we have our last big event on outreach. We are having a 2 hour program at a fancy pub that will focus on intimacy with God. This town in very Catholic based and understands who God is but we are going to share tonight through dance, drama, music, poety, ect... the relationship God desires us to have with our Father.

We are having a 3 day debriefing in Germany early next week before we fly back to Costa Rica on Thurs. for our school graduation.
