Our concert last night here in Joure was once again very well recieved, so much fun singing for such appreciative audiences!!! Two European concerts and both have ended with encore pieces!!!
A lot of people came over to our host's home after the concert for tea, coffee, treats (including vla, pronounced fla, stroupwaffles, salami, and cheese!!!), and fun conversation! Having lots of fun meeting and talking with so many different people! Conversation went late and then some of us guys stayed up late and hung out more with our host brothers, great times!
Woke up on my own pretty early this morning, well, 7:30am is pretty early considering I went to bed at 4 haha, to a quiet house... it was good to have time to myself for devotions and to catch up on my journaling.
I had a few thoughts during my devotions... as we were visiting some significant Menno Simons sites yesterday, like we will visit many significant Annabaptist history sites this tour, Bradley mentioned that it was sort of a faith pilgrimmage for us, getting to know some of the roots of our faith. I was thinking that for me, it is going to be not only the places of historical significance, but also the people I'm meeting along the journey that will make these next few weeks a great pilgrimmage, one that builds my faith and spiritual foundations...
Anyways, maybe deeper thoughts than any of you care to read about :) but I guess it's just as easy for you to close the window! haha, take care
blessings,
John

Thanks for the great reflections John. I historical places are significant. People are always more significant. the historical places are significant because of the people who were there in the past and what they did while they were there.
ReplyDeleteThat's great thought John :) ...about the faith pilgrimage.
