News from Berlin

Friday 12th June: I have now been in Berlin a month, how time has flown. We spent the day in Potsdam (Droptiny massive minus Gabe). We did some touristy things during the day and in the evening we went to see Vinzent (Thilo's band) play a gig, which was allot of fun only downside was sound tech was not very good so could not hear Thilo that well.

Sat 13th: This was a very typical chilled Saturday, the excitement only starting in the evening, with practice for Sunday morning and again Texas Hold'em.

Sun 14th: Mauer Park Church in the morning, followed by a brief visit to the market. In the afternoon we went to a small German church which was interesting, all good just could not understand allot as was in German (but I did get to play drums). After the service I went for dinner with the church before heading back home to get ready for our last night out with the Homestead team.

Mon 15th: YWAM over, but a band from California arrived to work with us for the week (very, very good musicians). The first thing we did was to have lunch with them just to get know them before heading to Boxhaganer with them. It was a really chilled atmosphere lots of people came to sit and listen to the music, a few funny incidences but probable all you had to be there moments.

Tue 16th: Went with the band to Alexander Platz, again just hung out played music, handing out tracks and trying to have conversations. Had dinner together before heading to Mauer Park to hang out and play music.

Wed 17th: In the morning I finally got round to getting a German phone (+4916099652155). The afternoon was spent playing music and free hugs, it took a while to find a spot to do it because there were student strikes but we eventually settled at Hackescher Markt. In the evening I went out to dinner followed by bowling.

Thurs 18th: Went for a bike tour around Potsdam was really chilled and beautiful, in the evening watched a film.

Fri 19th: (Today) Just got up got no real plans until church this evening but who knows....

My main prayer request is fairly big, when you get a phone in this country you need ID even for pay as you go and in the process I have kinda misplaces my passport, sure its in the house so not amazingly worried about it.

Thanks for all the support you have given me in prayer.
