Prijst de naam van Jezus

Okayyy! So under some promptings from Jacee I have decided to create a blog to follow Olinda's and my adventures in Europe!
We have already been away from home for about 2 weeks now. Our first weekend was spent in Montreal with my wonderful relatives (Thank you Uncle Brian and Aunt Luce and Noemie and Sophie and Erica!) and we had a really incredible time. Among catching up with old friends (like Noemie and Dena and Kelly and Christy and Nathan and Sherri) and worshiping with fellow believers and dancing on Mont Royal and walking along the Saint Lawrence, we also had opportunities to meet new people and pray with others who really needed it. (Barbra anne and Lucky)
Then we were off to England where we spent a few days in London, seeing the sights and meeting the people. We had more opportunity to talk to people who wanted to talk about God and pray with them as well, in our hostel (Maureen), waiting for the train (Pete) and on the train as well (Stephanie) (We took a train up North to see some country -really beautiful! Lots of Goats too) Oh and we also met up with my ol' friend Dan in Manchester!
Now we are in the Nederlands visitin Olinda's relatives. We got to worship with them on Sunday as well (in Dutch, but I recognized the Hymn "Prijst de naam van Jezus!" and they also sung some english songs.) Such wonderful people! (thank you so much tante Tineke and uncle Zweer and Judith and Sander!) Later today we're going to visit some more of her relatives =) Im still seeing about the possibility of catching up with some of mine. It was just Judith's birthday so there were lots of people coming over and lots of tea and cake eaten! Oh and we also got to have a private tour (along with some tourists from Boston) in a windmill even though it wasn't technically open. God is zo goed!
Okay, that's all for now, Thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers and for even reading this thing =p God is so good and has been providing for us and giving us blessings everywhere, and it's obvious that people are praying for us. We're excited to see what He has in store for us and who He has us meet and talk to next!

tot ziens!
