Weekend Update

Hello again from Ljubljana!!! It has been quite the week. I don't even remember what days were which, but I am going to try to recount it for you.
This week consisted of a lot of sharing and trusting God with our conversations. We take about 4 hours each week day to go to campus and share with students. To do this we have a couple of surveys to get the ball rolling. One os Perspectives and one is Soularium. If you are not familiar with the Campus Crusade lingo: Perspectives is a deck of cards which give you questions and possible answers. It is kind of like a multiple choice quiz but with religious questions. The questions are: Who is God?/Is there a God?, What is human nature like?, What is the meaning/purpose of life?, Who was Jesus? Where do you find your spiritual truths? These questions usually lead t osome compelling conversations! Soularium is another set of cards which have pretty pictures on them that people use to answer 5 different questions, which are: Pick 3 pictures that describe your life right now, pick 3 that you wish described your life, pick 1 that describes God, and I honestly forget the other 2. As you can tell, I like to use Perspectives better.
This week on Friday I got to have a second appointment with two wonderful girls. We talked with them for 3 hours at a cafe and it was a blast. We got to know their spiritual beliefs and tell them about ours: the Gospel. We are meeting with them again on Monday!
The fun began Friday night! This weekend is Slovenia's 20th year as being a country and they had a celebration in the center on Friday night! There were fireworks and a lot of speeches in Slovene that we couldn't understand. It was great though because we got our 4th f July fireworks, just a few weeks early! The Slovene and a few other countries presidents were there and everything! Good times!
THIS morning, I CLIMBED A MOUNTAIN! Yep! I did. We hiked up Mount Šmarna Gora which is a whopping 2,195 ft tall! That mountain tried its best to kill me, but I got through. Waiting at the top was a great view and a very cute outdoor cafe that served what is known as the best tea and donuts in Slovenia. And let me tell you, I bet they are correct in that assessment. The tea is made from some substance that comes from some sort of tree that is growing in the middle of the cafe and it tastes like honey and spices and goodness. The donuts were like funnel cake in donut form. They had powdered sugar on them and you put your choice of chocolate, caramel, or strawberry sauce on them. Let's just say U ate 4 of them. So great! The view from the top shouted God's glory. It was so so so beautiful. For pictures, you can click on my previous post which will take you to my Slovenia album on facebook. :)
As you can probably tell, I am having a BLAST in Slovenia and life is great! I would love to thank all of my supporters from their loving gift. I so do not deserve God's grace and He has shown me it through you all. Thank you!!!!
