Sunday we completed week 1 of the Writing on the Wall tour in Poland with a really great team that is serving very well together through some serious challenges. We have been partnering with a national group that demonstrates their faith through practical community work in various areas around the city. We've led worship several times in the church and at a related local camp where the larger international team is housed, done a "private" concert at the camp, and two public concerts on a great location on a pier in the middle of the city.
Saturday's concert was to have been the grand finale concert by Writing on the Wall. Unfortunately the weather has been unseasonably cold through much of Europe, and with drizzle, and temperatures hovering around 12-14 degrees in this area of Poland, we were forced to cancel this event. There have been many good conversations and some decisions made during this first week, and we feel we have encouraged and ministered to the local church and camp.
Now on to a second town for our final week of the tour, participating with a national host ministry there. We are missing our tour organizer Bob Johnson who had to leave the tour after the first few days because of a medical emergency. We are very thankful for his faithfulness, vision and creativity in setting up this tour and developing these partnerships. Thanks for your prayers as Writing on the Wall continues this tour to Aug. 1st.
