In Copenhagen

Sitting in an apartment in Copenhagen, looking back at how we got here.

Transmission has come and gone. A great experience, plenty of great people, many lessons learned (hopefully) and lots of fun. But now we have left the comfortable bubble and stepped into the brilliantly amazing playground called Central Europe. There are six planned stops on our journey: Copenhagen, Dresden, Prague, Vienna, Budapest and finally Belgrade.

Its quite the eclectic group we have. Introductions are in order: Jon, Chris + Chris from Guildford, Simone from Germany (studying in London), Steph from Belfast (also studying in London) and Resa from the USA (but living in Sweden) and Krister (married to Resa and living in Sweden). In my opinion a fab bunch of people.

Day one of the 24-7 Central Europe Mobile Team has entailed getting up at the ungodly hour of 2:45 AM to get on a coach to Stansted airport. Somehow in our semi-comotose state we managed to get on the right plane, the right train and the right bus, and into the right house. We are now staying with our contacts who have hooked us up with a great apartment (internet access! Yay!). Right now we are landing and getting our bearings in the city. Trying to figure out what God wants us to do and how we can serve this city the best in the days to come.
More later.

Hi you seven! As a dear friend of Jon's I plan to follow your progress and pray for you and those you meet up with, daily. The fact that you are doing this, for Jesus and his coming kingdom, is a massive encouragement to me and many others. Please God I can encourage you over the coming days as I respond to your blogs. Tom.
