A collection of memories

Yay Daystar.

My Dear Dorien,

Another 19th has rolled around and what a lovely one it was! I woke up in the wee hour of 2am to pray for an hour because our team was doing 24 hour prayer slots. I then went back to bed and woke up on the church floor.

We helped with a church service and I was able to practice a lot of German because the precious grannies couldn’t speak any English. We then went to a big park in Neustadt and played music and talked to people. I had a delicious ice cream cone because the weather was really warm.

After our day in Neustadt, we went to a student’s parents house on the Elbe River. They had a vineyard and a modern home with ginormous windows. We feasted on delicious food and then watched a massive lighting storm split the skies over Dresden.

It was a great day to say the least. Can’t wait to see what will be next month.

Love, Daystar

Daystar dear,

Happy Pentecost! It’s one of my favorite holidays I think, and I am glad we got to celebrate it on the 19th. 

I found a church in Rotterdam that is very similar to Bethel - needless to say that I love going there! Their worship this morning was so sweet and refreshing.

I walked all the way back home where lots of homework awaited me. These are the last few weeks before the summer holiday, and they are packed with projects. This afternoon I worked on a small book about April that I will be binding myself - I have been making a book every month since last December and I am excited about the results so far.

Later today my classmate from Finland came over. We prepared a few random dishes that we were going to take outside for a picnic, but since it had gotten cold and cloudy by the time we were ready I just spread out my Mexican blanket in the living room. I could easily spend a long weekend alone and make myself anonymous in this city, but I am not sure how healthy that is - it’s good that she came over.

Curious about your weekend in Dresden, I hope you had a fiery Pentecost!

Love, Dorien
