a bustling home

about 11000 kilometers, Svendborg, Denmark

Today we woke up in Denmark at the home of our friends Frank and Mirjam. It was a brilliant day spent with five YWAM students on their DTS, full of serious weeding in the garden, laying down bricks for a nice-sized patio, a smorgåsbord lunch, some well-needed and delicious barbeque finished off with ice cream cones.

It's been a delight to be with Mirjam and Frank. Their three girls are really smart and fun to be around. I can only hope that when Krister and I have kids that they come out so well. Mirjam and Frank have shared their home and their lives with us, not fawning over us as guests. Instead we fell right into the rhythm here. It was nice to help out with practical work as well. It is also nice to feel at home.

Afterwards we were able to see the rebahilitation center that the students live and help out in. It was impressive and seemed to be perfectly suited to their needs. A complete answer to prayer. Complete with a greenhouse, a gorgeous garden and some nice sheep.

Tomorrow aftera nice long drive and two ferries later, Neubradenburg here we come!
