Our fearless leader has slacked off on updating the blog (and also we have had some internet issues), so here we are letting you know we are all still fine, jet-lagged, but fine! Today we started our english classes. Everything went smoothly, however, there were a few adjustments that needed to be made. The last couple of days we have been sight-seeing in Prague. We saw Prague Castle, Charles Bridge, the Astronomical Clock Tower, and many other beautiful sights and buildings. The city is simply gorgeous! After our days in Prague, we got in a van with a VERY "courageous" driver who weaved in and out of traffic preventing any of us from sleeping. We arrived at the Hotel Delta in the early afternoon and we met the rest of the camp staff. We had a brief introductory meeting with the staff to get to know them better before the campers arrived. We spent some time praying for each other, the classes and hearts to be opened this week. Also, we had a prayer request for Zdenek's (the main coordinator of the camp) lost wallet, which was found moments after we were done praying. I have never seen a prayer answered so quickly! Tonight we had our presentation of pictures from home from each of us to show the Czech people where we come from and what we like to do. They asked a few questions regarding our experiences so far in the Czech Republic and if it was at all what we expected. Tomorrow starts a whole new day of classes. Please continue to pray for us as we continue on with these english lessons. We have already started to see God working with one of the campers that Michael and many other previous teachers in years past have been praying for and mentoring. We feel that tonight may be the night that he finally gives his life to the Lord. Michael and Brian are meeting with him at some point tonight to talk. Please be praying for that. We will keep you updated when we get information and also hopefully some daily updates as the week progresses.
Everyone has been staying healthy for the most part, just some tired travelers. Thank you so very much for all your prayers and support. This trip would not have been possible without all of you! The team thanks you for everything you have done to help us prepare for this trip. Hope everything is well in good ole' Atascadero!
Dobrou Noc!
Kayla and Mandee for the Czech Republic Team
