Jubilee!

Happy Tuesday everyone!

We have jumped right into the work week and are at the busiest time of year. Last week ended in a mad rush to get everything done and resulted in Nathan and I working until almost 8pm on Friday, which in turn resulted in getting locked IN the school. It was an adventure trying to figure out how to get out and then find someone to properly lock the school back up, while convincing them that we are NOT trying to break into the school. Sometimes the language barrier makes it quite frustrating when trying to convey something very simple.

The weekend was fine and dandy. It's been rainy here, which has been EXCELLENT because it's cooled us down in the evenings quite a bit. However, it's in the high 80's with rain and massive amounts of humidity during the day... ugh. Thank goodness for A/C! The weather really does bite the big one, and even on the days when the sun is out, all you want to do is escape to sit in a nicely cooled refrigerator.

We did FINALLY find a church not too far from us. It's about an hour trek, including a 40 minute subway. We've not attended a church regularly for 4 months. Shame on us! Thankfully we've had a group to do a Biblestudy with, but we are SO excited for this church. It's called Jubilee and is the only independent English church in Korea. All other English churches are under the umbrella of a Korean church, so it tends to be filled with mostly Koreans just trying to learn English. Anyway, at Jubilee we met SO many incredible people in just one Sunday. Nathan and I are pretty excited for the ministry opportunities that we can now get involved in through Jubilee. It felt strange to be around so many English speakers and we ended up spending most of the day with new friends and learning more about the church and understanding a little bit more of Korea. We'll keep you posted on how we find it getting plugged in there!

We trust and pray that our family and friends are doing well back home. Please keep Nathan and I in your prayers as some future decisions are being made concerning what we'll be doing when we return home!

Enjoy the week!
