January was a great month. Damian and his family arrived saftely. Be praying for their ability to find a house easily and quickly! I cannot believe how time seems to fly by so quickly here, Feb. is just a few days away!
















Last week I was super fortunate to go up to Siegen Germany for an annual pastor/missionary conference that is held there. Pastors come from all over europe to meet, pray, and seek the Lord together. We had a great time together; super refreshing. We bought our airline tickets for only 27 euros round trip including taxes! Unbelievable really. Above are pictures of the Bible college there, the church in Siegen, and one of our daily meetings we had together. Be praying for us as we continue to take steps in the direction that we feel the Lord has laid before us as we seek to plant churches in this north eastern area of Italy.

















This is our church sign! Not super exciting...I know...haha. I want to start using this website though to keep people updated on life here and the simple elements of my day.
















This is the view of the main road in the simple town of Montebelluna. Actually it is right out in front of my appartment. living so close I dont have a need for a car. Being in the center makes life real simple!
















This is one of the families in the Church. Herods (the guy taking the picture) came over six years ago and four years later his family was able to join him in Italy. They are from Ethiopia and they made me and amzing lunch of traditional Ethiopian flavors on Saturday (I get really spoiled when people have me over for meals here). Be praying for my buddy Shaun who is currently on staff at the bible college in Hungary. In June he is planning on moving to Ethiopia to help some friends of ours with the establishment of an orphanage.
