Cheerio everyone! I made it to London. I have seen Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, Parlaiment, and have already mastered the underground. Okay, maybe I haven't mastered it, but we're getting around pretty well.
I'm hoping to connect with some of the folks at Grace here in London. That would really make this trip worthwhile to me...honestly. I am planning also on seeing Stonehenge next week. I know they don't let you walk up and touch them anymore, but it will still be cool.
London is really a place that needs a powerful presence of the Spirit of Jesus through His people. I stood in the customs line for nearly an hour and a half and there were people there from every tribe and tongue and nation. There were so many muslims, hindus, and loud mouthed Americans. I thought, "Our West Michigan Dutch Conservative ghetto is keeping us from seeing the true need in the world." Okay, it wasn't exactly that, but close enough. We really are sheltered from the rest of the world and I am not sure if we are better off for it.
Well, I think I should cut it off there and share the computer with the fellow behind me. He seems a little impatient. So I'll share....
peace.
