In a microwave

Okay, like no one else is blogging right now.. I'm not sure exactly what to write here.. Being a team blog, its different from my 'personal' blog where I can really rant, rave and write things which no one above 24 is going to read.

Man, its so hot in London right now. I feel like I'm in a microwave.. or like a pork dumpling being steamed up.. For me, I know its hot when my glasses start slipping off my face because of the sweat. Yesterday was the first glasses slippage day since last Summer. Summer has arrived and that means we're off to Japan sooner rather than later.

So yesterday the team met up minus Natania. It was good to pray together, go over some of the plans, the itinerary (cant spell that work) and just chat. It also involved a 10 minute walk up a steep hill to James's house which nearly killed me in the heat. But its all good.

There's quite a lot of planning and preparation that has to take place over the next few days or so. Writing talks, Bible studies, making t-shirts, planning kids camps, planning open houses, evangelistic dinners, what to cook, what to wear, bla bla bla.. Please pray that we prepare diligently and by the power of the Holy Spirit, that we prepare not for our glory but God's. At church today, the preacher (Rico Tice) was on fire (not literally) and gave a great sermon on 2 Thesalonians 1:7-12 and how we have to preach the gospel so so urgently. The basic point is.. where will your friends be in 150 years time?
