Long Time!

Sorry its been a while. This past week was half term and had the week off!! Lots of relaxing! Also allot of sight seeing. Where did we go this week? Well Matthias went back to Germany for the week, so it was just Judit and I. We went to Tate modern and the British Museum. From the two of them, we decided that we all can become famous artists! Some of the pieces were how should I put this? Well I would be able to create something to go in there and I could pass for a great artist. Though it was fun and now I can say that I have been there; but not something that I would do again. We also went to go and see several churches that were built by the same man that built St. Paul's. As some were destroyed by the great fire and not in the best condition. They were all some what different and interesting to see. The man that built these churches (I can't remember his name) he made 38 churches with in like a few miles of each other. Later this week, Judit had some friends come to stay with us; and they are here until next Wednesday. The four of us went out to see the main parts of London, the big tourist sights: Big Ben, Westminster Abby, Horse Gard's, Buckingham and St. James park. All of these sights I had seen. Some new things that I was able to see were: Chapter House, Wellington Arch, Apsley House and today we went to Greenwich. At Greenwich they have the zero latitude and longitude line. It goes through the park there. The park has a beautiful view of the city and a large area. This I think would be better to see in the spring when everything is in bloom.
This week I also found out more info about my new school that I will be working at. I think that it is one of the smaller schools that Springboard works with, because there are 15 children what will come to work with us. The largest school has like 70-90 kids that we work with. Any way it is in East London, and I get to start there this coming Tuesday. I will be testing the kids to see where they are and if they need our help, or where we need to start working with them.
The week before I left for half term, I had to say good bye to the children that I had at Brockley. It was hard, but I think that God had been preparing me for what is to come at the end of the year. Its hard to leave the relationships that I had worked on for only a few months and to think about leaving ones that I have worked on over a year with a child. Sad to think of, but reality has to set in sometime.
The past couple of weeks a lady that I have been working with has been having some family problems with her children and the police. It was very powerful to see what the power of prayer has done in her life and what kind of things come from prayer!!!!
