Another Week Of Fun In Berlin

Fri 5th: As with most Fridays it had a quiet beginning, in the evening Gabe and I went to see Fink in concert, following this we went to the end of a birthday party and then back to ours for 'The Yes Man' good times

Sat 6th: Again because of the weather we didn't really get to do to much other than prayer walk Boxhaganer, (we prayer walked the park once a day for 6 days starting Thursday 4th and then on the 7th day we would march around seven times (3 in prayer, 3 listening and 1 making a lot of noise) similar to what Joshua and the Israelites did around Jericho). In the evening we went to Steve and Patrick’s (two of our neighbors (one of which became a Christian the week before) to play n64).

Sun 7th: The plan was to have church in the Mauer Park, but the rain came down hard. So we made plans to meet the YWAM teams at 3 or 4 to worship. I went out to brunch, and then meet up with the teams at the Ring Bahn (Train that circles central Berlin) and we worship on the train traveling round Berlin. Once we had done a complete circuit of the city we chilled for a few hours in the park near the YWAM base and played football with some kids before heading back to the YWAM base for some food and evening worship. After we went out with the YWAM teams as it was Derby’s last night that they could go out we went to a club and danced the night away. (Only 1 downside to the day we forgot the prayer walk Boxi).

Mon 8th: Morning normal food shop and went to post office to get package from Parents full of cards and presents for my birthday! Then it was to Boxi with the Berlin DTS. We felt it was right to go and chill, worship, hand out cookies to anyone who wanted one and just see what happened, there were some amazing breakthrough especially with a guy (Stewart who had been really against the work we had been doing for the best part of a year and had been really aggressive in the past) he came over to us and talked with Kim for a long while, and we were able to give him a Bible on Wednesday. I didn't feel as though personally God did anything mad through me but it was so so encouraging to see him move around me. In the evening as it had been a few days since our last game we played Texas Hold'em!

Tue 9th: Rain! Went to Alexander Platz for some tea as the days ministry had been called off, bumped into some YWAMers giving out free hugs, walked through the city saw some touristy things before heading home for some pasting action. Covered the street with images of Jesus. Got back and realized at 11pm we had forgotten the prayer walk, so went back prayer walked and then hung out in a bar for a while.

Wed 10th: Day 7 of the Joshua prayer walk. Meet the YWAMers at Boxi and prayer walked it 3 times in prayer, 3 times listening to God and 1 time screaming Jesus and banging saucepans, once we had done that we went again and chilled in the park. In the evening we went to a Jeremy Camp and David Crowder Concert, it was an awesome time of worship. Meet David Crowder after, which was a treat!












Thurs 11th: (today) Raining so hard right about now, please pray for some good weather, day so not to much planned we have a meeting with some South Africans who are planting a church to share our vision and other things.

As I said prayer for the weather would be nice, prayer for Isa would be so nice we seem to take 2 steps forward and then 4 steps back at the moment and prayer for Stewart that he would read the Bible we gave him.

Thanks for all you do

Nathanael
