Not a whole lot to report since yesterday.
We went to the river with Jovica's family and the missionary's. It was different than the last river we went to. We swam, jumped off a bridge, and enjoyed our time together. After the river we all headed back to Jovica's house where he had prepared a Serbian dish I had to ask how to pronounce more than a few times. It was delicious and as Josh made clear, was his favorite meal of the trip so far. It was certainly scrumptious.
After eating a couple other people came and we had house group bible study. Jovica spoke out of Romans 5 and it went really well. We talked about the difference between knowing God and believing that Christ lived and was resurrected and putting your faith and hope in that fact. The missionary even asked one of the Serbian guys straight up if he had accepted the gift or just knew about it to which he responded that he had accepted it.
After talking and praying for a little bit we headed into town to put up some more sports fest posters as well as put up the rest of our English class fliers.
Today is the first day of that English class. It starts at 5 p.m. and we're still working on exactly what we should talk about. It'll be mainly discussion with whoever shows up but we're going to hopefully plan some games and activities for them to do too. Pray that the class goes well and that the people who come will be good contacts and friends for us here.
Everyone is feeling 100% now which is a relief. Pray that health continues. Also, please pray for focus. When checking Facebook accounts and other things it's easy for our minds to slip off of our purpose here and we don't want to waste the time we've been given. Team unity is still great, pray please that that continues as well.
Ciao!
