Day 81-85 Valga

Day 81-85, June 22nd-26th Estonia.  Oh my, what a full-on week of events, organised by a friend Kristel Altosaar. Tues was the prison visit then birthday house concert. Weds was the Valga Pentecostal Church. Thurs Village of Hope Rehab Centre in Laitse. Fri Rakvere Karmel Church. Sat Kunda Karmel Church. Sun morn St Marys Lutheran Church Otepää. Sun nite St Johns Lutheran Church Haapsalu.  Highlights: There was a strong anointing for the prison visit so I know lives were impacted. The birthday house concert was a wonderful warm fuzzy nite. The Rehab Centre was a total joy (wonderful ministry set in a forest, many lives transformed from life on the street, see feedback on Facebook). And Sunday morn at the Lutheran in Otepää went surprisingly well, set in a large historic wooden building with wonderful acoustics. On the way back home from one of these concerts I noticed the lone sentinel windvane in the evening light (above). I stopped and took the pic, its vanes were motionless. Made me think it’s the wind of the Holy Spirit that empowers us.. And as the tour comes to a close I think I’ve been like a lone sentinel  traveling around, empowered by the Holy Spirit.. which gives me the words to say, the boldness to stand up in front of often granite-faced Eastern Europeans, the refreshment to keep going when tired (Isaiah 40.31), protection on the road, and His leading in many different situations.  I’m just so thankful He’s brought us this far by His grace.
