Been a busy few days. We finished the leadership conference about 11:30pm on Wed then drove back to Rome. Yesterday I had time with Marco whilst Andrea prepared an amazing meal for last night - Roast Polento with cheese, roast vegetables, spinach, peas. She also dis homemade Amoretto Moose for everyone.

The meal was amazing! We had Allesandro and Lea (the pastor of our church and wife) and their two daughters, Debra and Daniella. We also had our neighbours, Roberto and Nadile and the people in the house - Andrea and I, Jess and Leah, Sophie and Harriette, Justino and Chris our newest guest.

We met Chris at the conference he's from London and has been in Spain (Madrid) for the past three years. He was staying in a hostel in the centre of Rome and came because God told him too. We thought it right to invite him to stay with us for a few days.

Today we are going to go to the gypsy camp again - hooray! And maybe Andrea and I will go on a date and have a few hours to ourselves for the first time in many months - I know that this should be a regular thing but it has been a bit hectic.

Jessica Kravits' blog has been added to the "people" section on the right.

We leave for sicily in 12 days!!!

If anything is heard about Paolo I'll post.
