orlando

there have been several things i like about this trip.
the conference was great.
some of those worship services were so moving,
and each message was like Chopin to our ears.

terri terry did her life's message again, the one about eros love and agape love and the trees in the garden, and even though i had heard it like 3 times, i was so touched by it still.
derek shared his usual message on "true discipleship". i had heard that 3 times too, i knew where the jokes went, i knew the content, but i still cried when i heard it. it was the best i've ever heard him preach it. plus the message itself is so like beautiful. its lovely because Jesus is lovely!
i bought the cd. lol. y'all back home will hear it.

then yesterday, sunday, derek shared on fatherless-ness and adoption, and talked about his story of adopting the girls 5 years ago and the boys this summer, and i was stirred from it, like loving these kids. i'm pretty excited for the ukraine boys to come.
at least 20 couples went up afterwards for prayer about adopting. 20 couples!
the Lord is really doing something here.

also our host family is awesome! last night Climento (host) wanted us to share our story with him, so we all did and he shared his and he spoke into our lives reminding us the importance of loving people. the couple is from colombia, and he says 'beautiful' a lot. describing things.

we went to the hospital yesterday to pray for his mother and sister, and his mother started getting better, it was pretty cool. we are cooking them lunch today. they are awesome.
they cook us every meal, not like "the fridge" like eggs for breakfast, lasagna for dinner, its really special.

so today mark is picking me up, pretty excited, we're going to eat somewhere and then who knows. tonight we are going to Lakeland revival, see whats happening there.
tomorrow we go to the beach.

anyways, its going good.
