Cheers!
We are back in the USA! We've been catching up on sleep, and continue to readjust to the time difference. Todd and I have been going to bed around 8pm and waking up at 5am. By the end of the week we are hoping our sleep schedules will be back to "normal."
England was incredible! Our hearts were changed for the better, and God stretched us to great lengths. It was my first time leading on missions, but with God's strength he worked everything out even though there were stressful moments.
Our team: Team Taimes (named by the students) were awesome! We had a great group of students who did an amazing job serving the whole trip. We were busy everyday delivering fliers, bagging groceries, doing lawn work, and car washes to receive donations for Betel of Britain. The girls lived with the women of Betel in their house, and the men at the men's house. Being in their homes gave us the chance develop relationships and hear testimonies of what God has done in their lives. The people of Betel have been transformed by God. Many have been healed from addictions, and are being discipled as they grow in their new relationship with the Lord. It was hard to say goodbye to them, but thankful we will see them again one day :)
During our time in Englad we had a team day where we went to tour Warwick Castle, and Stratford upon Avon where Shakespeare's house is. We really enjoyed these places, they were beautiful and full of history. On our last day we toured London. We took the Underground into the city and visited Big Ben, Thames River, The London Eye, Westminster Abby, and Buckingham Palace. In addition, Todd went with some of our team to Abbey Road where the Beatles recorded, and where the famous crosswalk picture was taken.
