Greetings once again from IWT headquarters here in Scotland. Just in case you are wondering what the weather is doing here, um..........it's raining. What a shock.
So are you all enjoying the Olympics? The reporting here is somewhat different than in the States. Pray that the UK wins something before the whole place slips into serious depression. Even the tv comentators sound desperate. I never thought I would say this but, I miss John Tesh and his sappy stories. Well, I don't miss him that much but I wouldn't mind a few tear jerking stories about the athletes from time to time. Bye the way, the kids have us all chanting USA USA USA.

The latest on IWT
At present we are continuing to make contacts and trying to bring churches, buisness leaders and individuals on board to make this thing happen. It looks like we will be giving a presentation to a group of church and buisness leaders from Stirling in the next couple of weeks. We've met many people from our home church here now, http://www.stirlingbaptist.org that are very excited about what God can do through IWT here in Scotland. Great to be a part of a healthy church that has vision for outreach! We are also working on our new promotional video that we will use for presentations, church kickoffs, and fundraisers. (Big, urgent project) The video will retain some of the meat of the New Zealand video but we will give it a distinctly Scottish flair. Needless to say we've been listening to a lot of bagpipe music lately and not all of it good. There is some great stuff out there though so it should end up being a stirring video.

We are currently still looking for office space that we can afford. Since we are very much in the infancy faze of this campaign, we don't have very much funding as yet so we would prefer free office space. I'm sure God will provide at just the right time and I must add, we haven't given up on the Sword Hotel. One of these days we might just see a for sale sign up there. Overall things tend to move somewhat slow here especially in working with the government. We have attained non-profit status which is great and we are currently going after charity statis as well. Pray that all these things will come together. We are expecting big things to happen here in Scotland.

On a more personal note, Kayleigh seems to be doing pretty good in her first two days of her educational carreer outside of home. We couldn't be more proud of her. Liam seems to be adjusting pretty well also, though he does miss playing with his big sister during the day. He's also looking forward to his big 4th birthday this Sunday. Julie is feeling a bit better little by little and we are all really excited about the new addition due to make his or her debut in early March.
Well that's about all for now, more in the not too distant future.
See ya.
