Today is a busy day. I’m working on some hospitality details, meal schedule changes for the 125+ evangelists coming next week, weekly Dunedin email update and welcome / information packs with maps, schedules, and misc. important info. for all the traveling team leaders and techies and staff w/ IWT. Its amazing all the little details that one might forget to think of. Good thing that Becky & Frank are around to direct us! Heh-heh. They have been so wonderful and have treated us well! We have eaten at their host home 3 times already and the kids really enjoy them too! Good thing because we will be spending tons of time with them in Scotland!

Speaking of hosting... we really enjoyed a meal and the company at some friends of our host family this evening. We are really appreciating the invitations out!!! (I really miss my kitchen.) Anyway, she made a traditional New Zealand/Australian dessert called pavlovia. It was delectable! Pretty much a baked egg white whipped thing with cream in it and fruit on the side! Yum! Their garden was beautiful too! Her Dahlias were as large as my hand and the most amazing vibrant colors! Ok, this morning was so chilly! I guess central heating is just not very popular in these parts. Its so cold today that 3 Albatross flew into KFC at the rotisserie and surrendered! Yeah, by the way... KFC is so popular here. There is either a Fish & Chip shop, Chinese Take-Away, or KFC on every block! No, we did’nt cave in yet! YET!

Oh, one last thing for today. Could you pray with us re: the weather for the tour. It seems like rain has been following the tour! The extended forcast looks cold and rainy for those days. God has done incredible thing in spite of the rains (ask us the stories when we are back), but it would be nice to have clear skies since its at an outdoor horse race track in this city. Must go get busy! Blessings on you today!... and hey, why not invite a new visitor or family into your home for a meal, get to know them and be a blessing, I’m sure you will be blessed too!...never know, maybe you will be entertaining Angels! :)
