SML-East Bernard, TX

Today for me was a plowing day. There weren't that many girls there and when it started raining more people left. It was a little disappointing at first but once I started to talk to God, he reminded me that it's not always going to be easy and plowing needs to be done. I did meet 2 new people today, R and S. I got to talk to them for a while before we left the picnic. They really made a good ending to the day. It's always nice to meet someone new who is a nice person and enjoys talking. Tonight during worship I felt like God was calling me to Germany. I told Him if this is where He wants me then it's where I'm going to be. After I told Him that I had a peace come over me. So please pray for that. I'm also having a tough time getting ready to go home. I love it so much and feel at home here and don't really want to leave. I just feel so comfortable here. But yes I'm coming back home, for now.

MP-Buffalo, TX

God showed me so much this week. What an amazing God we serve. My senior year is going to be so different. I am going to build relationships. I am not going to worry about working. God will provide for me. I have had a job for the past 4 and a half years. My senior year and the rest of my life is surrendered to God. My senior year is going to consist of discipleship, prayer, and more prayer. As well as building relationships and making Him famous in all that I do always. I love you so much!

BC-Monahans, TX

Please just praise the Lord in what He has done this week. Today I experienced something wonderful. A girl we prayed for on an exam made a perfect score on it. She knew that it was because we prayed for her. Praise God for that and pray for her. Thank you all for the support and prayer. Love always!

ARS-Dickinson, TX

The things that took place today can't be explained by words. God has been working in our hearts and the hearts of those around us. I can't even comprehend what He's been doing in Germany.

AEB-Idalou, TX

Today was an amazing day of worship and reflection. God is so awesome and has shown me so much for my ministry and life. I commit to begin a major focus on the most important thing of Christianity-discipleship from beginning (prayer) to end (vintaging). Lord I commit to becoming the Shepherd true church that takes your word to your world and stops playing religion.

SMM-Wylie, TX

It's been a great last day! Tomorrow is shopping day then we will get up and check out Saturday morning by 3:45 am which is 8:45 pm there. I don't have anything else to say. Love y'all. See you soon. Big hugs and kisses.

While we were meeting, D who joined in with a smile his face to play football, got in a B study with someof the others on the team. D and K both ate supper with us.

It rained today, but that could never stop our march for C. We continued to get to know our new friends. They even came with us to eat dinner. We talked about our C T-shirts and we sang them a German song that we recently learned. They laughed at us, but we did too.

L.B Lubbuck, TX

Today was a good day for all of us. I didn't personally meet anyone today, but my other team members did so that went great. Whey met a man who is a C which is awesome. I spent most of the day just pr'ing that G would break K and that He would show His love and mercy to them. It is amazing to see how G is working here. It was an awesome day. Love ya all!

S.M.L East Bernard, TX

Another amazing day! Today G taught me patience. Last night I felt G telling me to pr for a Mus girl to talk to. So I talked to my JSI, T, and told my group about it today. I was expecting to get a chance to talk to her today, but I guess it wasn't G's plan. S and I taked about it and I told her that I'm not always very patient and that I believed G was teaching me patience. A little later we went to eat supper and I thought about iti some more. I do believe that G was teaching me patience and that it will happen in His time. So please just pr for me, and for this Mus girl whenever I meet her.

B.W Lubbock, TX

It was amazing today. The day started out kinda slow, there weren't very many people. It started to rain so the guys, A, me B, and K started playing football. While we played a guy walked up and we aked him to play and he joined us. After we finished we has SC with him, and learned John 3:16 in German. It was so much fun. Pr that D will come bback and we can continue to talk with him. Pr that we can continue to minister here and that G will continue His ancient work.

AEB Idalou

Guten Amend. Please be in pr for out team. We are so tired and it has been so hot that we were a little lax to begin with today. But then we pr'ed for the Father to fill us and to be our feet and eyes and ears. Then we got into a football game with K and then D joined us. We played for a while and then sat down and read the B. D wanted to read our english B and then he taught us some german. It was a great time. Please pr for D that we will find discipleship to continue to grow as a believer. Pr for our team as well- G is moving in K- Halleluja!

AO Greenwood

To those I love and miss. G is doing incredible things in me. I"m going to try to find out how to be a JSI. Pr that G will either fly the door open or slam it shut. I met D today. We played football and then read the B. He had a real thirst for it, more than me. It wasw inspiring and made me want more. G is good. Although He never changes, I see His greatness more and more everyday. I love you!!!

Then "B" introduced me to "D" and we talked with him for 2 hours. He is Krishna and we talked about the father and His love for us. Please pray that God will open "D" eyes as he reads the book of John. Guten Tag!

S.M.L East Bernard, TX

Today Liz, sam, and I met this girl that goes to college in Koln. We talked to her for over 2 hrs. It was amazing. She was interested in what we were telling her but it didn't go past us talking and asking questions. She leaves tomorrow to go to her parents house so we can't get to see her again. Please pray for her, "N", and that she'll be open and the long term M's will have a chance to talk to her.

L.B Lubbuck, TX

Wow! Today was an awsome day. Me and my friends, Sierra and Sam met a woman from Russia. We talked about many things and God opened that door for us to share Him. She had many questions and I have to say it was difficult but sch a blessing at the same time. We read John 1-3 to her and that was so cool. It was such a great experience. I just let God talk throuh me and it was amazing. I love ya'll. It was a great day!

ARS Dickinson TX

Even though my voice was out, I met alot of friendly people. ONe of our newly found friends introduced s to some other missions. Our meeting with these people was nothing short of a gift from God.

B.W Lubbock, TX

God is amazing everyone met so many people. Me and "A" met a lady and we talked for a while but she was set in her ways and she asked us not to pray for her. Please pray for all the friendships we made and that God will work in their lives

S.M.M. Wyrie, TX

Hey ya'll. Been an awsome day of plowing, and sowing with Liz and Sierra. God really blessed us today. We talked to a girl called "N" which was quite a challenge. God was on our side and we got to read John 1-3 with her. Even though we weren't able to answer all of her questions we planted a seed and formed a relationship. The rest of the day consisted of prayer walking and fellowship. I had middle eastern food for dinner which was good but different anyway. Gotta go now. Love you and miss you!

M.P. Buffalo, Texas

Wow! God is so amazing all the time. We didn't get to meet with "M" from Ghana today. However on monday night we meet a guy from Germany named "K". As we were Prayer walking, Kevin begins to holler at us because he wanted to play frisbee. We began out with a small coversation and played som more. He is already a Christian, but said he has become lazy. I think we all do sometimes. We went through John chapters 1-3. I was going to end it in prayer and Kevin said he wanted to as well. So we as well as Rassi all prayed. Then we met two missions from Germany both named "S". I finished out with a game of frisbee with Kevin.

A.O Greenwood SC

Read John 2:3-11 now. Just as many expected Jesus to do something big and he delivered; that was my prayer and he delivered. I haven't had the chance to talk to someone really receptive to the gospel. The opposite actually I met "R" a science professor yesterday and "J" a painter. They were on both extreme sides of disbelief. I really see the Father using these difficult conversations to really teach me and prepare me for mission work! I learned so much today about the Father and what I believe. Things I never really though about . Pray for me, I miss my family and I have stomach issues. Pray for "J", "K", "K" (a boy) and the special friend I haven't met yet. Thank God for Tony and Rassi, Alan and my team. God put us together that's the only explanation.

B.F.M Clifton TX

I met two guys today. Marcel and Professor Ralph. Marcel semed like a open person, someone nice to talk too. Ralph seemed nice but was very strong in what he believed. He is a scientist and believes in the big bang and evolution. Just pray that they both will havbe open hearts and that God will hit them like a train to make them realize what they are missing in life. TO let them feel that emptyness.

M.P Buffalo, TX

My day started out going down hill after I found out that Mr. Foster passed away. It started reminding me of all the fun we had together and then my mind went to Bubba and his passing away. However, my trek leader Alan and I had a chance to talk while walking through the University. It was some great counciling that helped me greatly. After we took care of that we began to Prayer walk. God led us to "M" from Ghana. He is a Christian, but has not been active lately. We are going to meet him tomorrow for a cup of coffee. Please pray for him. Also God put 2 mormons in our path several times. Please pray for "R" and "J". God has shown me so much in these 3 days so far. Please continue to pray for open hearts and ears. We are nothing without God in our life. Wathc out for Buffalo, TX God is aobut to rock our community. I love you all! To sum it all up read Isaih 40:31.

S.M.L East Bernard, TX

Today we went back to the park, but we started talking to people today. Two other girls and I met a guy and a girl that were promoting a fitness center. It went well, the girl seemed interested but we didn't really talk to the guy about it. If we see them again I think we're going to get one of the guys to talk to him. We did have a great time talking to both of them though. The guy had a great time laughing at how we say german words. Please pray for both of them and also for a young mother we met.

S.M.M Wylie, TX

A.E.B Idalou, TX

Today a team member and I discovered the awsome provision of God. He lead us to "M" from Ghana but has lived in German for 21 yrs. He is a belieer. We are going to meet tommorow and worship and study the fathers word. Please pray for this time and God's direction. Pray for 2 mormons, "R" and "J" the mormon mission guys that the father would give them a restless night of questioning their beliefs and for us to share with them tommorow. God is awsome! Tschoos!

Hallo, Today we began our journey through the seasons. I am at the Koln University. It is a beautiful place and so full of people. Our major thing that is weighing heavily on my heart is that how many people have heard of the Gospel? Do they want to hear? Please pray for our team for endurance. Pray for a chance to talk to the person God wants. Pray for a chance to talk to mormons that are in the area. Love to all.

S.M.L East Bernard, TX

I learned a german song today about a dead chicken. I'll teach it to you later! We prayer walked today, over 3 hrs. We ask a few people if we could pray for them. Most of them said no. Then in the last 10 min. God showed us "J" from Nigeria. I praise God that he trusted us and shared his problems with us. While going to work he prays because everyday he encounters a group of people who hate him and he believes it is demonic forces influenced it. "T" our leader invited him to simple church.

It is so amazing that God answers prayer. Please pray that "J" will come to house church tommorow. Pray that I will know God's will for me because I think I may not be doing his will. I feel that he might be calling me to be a "M" here.

ARS Dickinson TX

The people here are very helpful when it comes to learning their language. Some of the locals are more than willing to share their prayer requests, but please pray for those who aren't.

M.P. Buffalo, Texas

Wow! Where do I begin? What an awsome God we serve! I learned that obedience comes over activity because it isn't what I do, It isn't what I do, It is who I am. We went to the University of Koln today and PW for several hours. We made several contacts today well. Please pray for "A" from Chile and J from Nigera. Prayer means so much more to me now then it did before. Please continue to pray for all the people we meet at the University. Please pray that the people we meet as well as all of us will have open eyes and hearts as well as open ears to listen with. I loe you all and remember Psalms 46:10. I have so many more stories to tell after I return.
