We now have 2 John's with us. John Senior is here for three weeks and came back with us from the UK and we also have John Curtis here to tell us some stuff from God (really - how cool is that).
This Saturday we have Jess coming who has already stayed with us for 10 days in March and is coming back for 40 odd days to do mission with us. She's from Phil, Mags, mal and Chriscelle's chuch in Charleston, South Carolina.
On Sunday John Curtis will be heading back to loved ones in Sheffield and we have two Hungarian couples who are church leaders staing with us for about 10 days they kind of know Marco and Cinzia ao should be great getting to know them. The following Saturday we have Matthew Rutter (ex St Tom's boy) bringing a team from Oxford Vineyard to do mission here - very exciting and a very full house!
A couple of nights ago we went out and helped a team from Denvor do some outreach in a piazza in the centre of Rome which was fun - big student are with much drinking and drug taking going on (but all very peaceful). We started at 10pm and drove home about 12:30 ish v tired. The next day (yesterday) we went to one on the main universities in Rome (rumoured to be the biggest in Europe) and started spreading the Gospel through conversations with the same team. I foolishly played some footy in bare feet on hot concrete and 30 mins in lost the sking off a large section of one foot. I'm now feeling sorry for myself as I type this.
God wise interesting to look back and see where people's advice and words have come true - pretty amazing really. We are trying to get into a rhythm of praying twice daily so if anybody would like to send us any prayer requests we'll pray them out :-)
Please pray for us as we try to sort out the team from Oxford and get timetables sorted. Pray for them as they prepare to come and give sacrificially.
I'm also going to add more photo sections for those who have too much time on their hands.
Hmm that all - oh yeah we now have an English telephone number again - hooray! It is
020 7870 5768 You can ring us and if we are in we'll be able to answer otherwise it goes to a voicemail.
Remember we leave Rome around the 10th August so if anybody wants to come and stay - holiday or mission get in touch asap. wackymajor@hotmail.com
