What a beautiful summer this has been so far. First, an absolutely lovely sail from Togo to Tenerife. Second, Murray and I took a trip to Indiana and had loads of fun. Third, the ship is still in Tenerife undergoing more maintenance, so we are loving the chance to explore and hang out here. Murray was here two and a half years ago, but it's my first time, so he is having fun showing me around. Plus, we're getting loads of exercise because the ship is docked all the way at the end of the cruise ship dock making for quite a walk into town. :)
Yesterday we drove to the south part of the island to attend Silencio Church. It's a very friendly, English-speaking church (yay!) which has a strong desire to minister to those around them and see many brought to the Kingdom. One man who was there gave his testimony of a life of always running away. He ran away from home, school, placement centers, etc, was a drug dealer and alcoholic, and later, after giving his life to Christ and being alcohol-free for a while, ran away from the hospital when they told him that his liver was so badly damaged that it needed to be removed. Later on when he went to see the doctor, he felt a nudge to tell the doctor that his liver was already in the process of being healed. Sure enough. The next time he was in, the doctor ordered a second scan after the first one showed no signs of scarring whatsoever. God had performed a miracle!
So anyway, that's the latest. :)
