Group leader dan, and the support money
We made him do it...hes not misusing your money!Let's see, i actually can't remember what my first update was about. But ill just try to tell some of what i am doing and have been doing now for about 5 days. Me and the 5 other members of my team are staying at Hope University of Liverpool. I have my own room, my own bathroom, and its better than wittenberg! WOW So that has been a huge blessing because i went into this trip not expecting anything this wonderful. Every day my team and the STINT team (year long interns most of which are from Miami of OHIO) have a devotional and prayer time. Then we pair off in groups of two and take a public bus to the campus area of Liverpool. I have been paired so far with a cool guy named Kevin, a cool girl named Stephanie, a cool guy named Danny and a cool BRITISH guy named Ed. We walk around and go up to people who are hanging out around campus, in parks, in the cafeterias, pubs, etc. And explain that we work for a christian organization and have some survey questions about beliefs that we would like go through with them. I've had

From New York University some great conversations and feel blessed to be able to understand people from other backgrounds. Through the conversation, we are able to share the gospel, and many people are very intrigued by it. The STINT team has been doing this all year.
Last night (Thursday) there was an open Mic outreach at a Pub. They needed someone to share their testimony and the gospel in front of the crowd, and i didn't want to. But throughout the day i was feeling guilty/like i needed to do it. That was the Holy Spirit, and its funny how he makes things happen like this! UGH! so i did it, and of course, there weree some drunk men who gave me a really hard time and kept interupting my speech and yelling for more music.That was pretty rough, but God called me to it, and i had to be obedient and so yeah. But this is what happens when you ask God to stretch you.
I figured i would share that story with you all. Tons of other stories!
Tommorow me and my team are taking a train to Chester England for our day off, which i have been too

Group Leader, and staff for Campus Crusade for Christ at Miami University before back in 2004 with Bexley High School. Its a quaint little english town with a cathedral (sarah koon and i actually had "church lunch" there) and some good shopping.
I will get to go to a british church on sunday, then on monday we leave for a place outside of London called High Wycombe, there we will stay for a week with other UK Christians for the briefing for all of the summer projects that are leaving from the UK! Then to Russia!
Thanks for reading, God bless, and look around this site for some pictures!
