I have a short amount of time to blog as a group of us are about to head out to dinner in a bit before we go to Risttee Church for the Living Room event that we're hosting for the students that we connected with tonight... pray that TLR goes well tonight and that many of the students we connected with this week come and get connected in some way to someone at Risttee.
I am (as you can tell from my title) one book short from what I brought to read on the trip. I got a personalized tour of Tartu from my new Tartuian friend Ivan today and had a chance to invite him to The Living Room tonight... he was not committal but was open to reading Searching for God Knows What and sharing his thoughts on what he is reading with me (I have his e-mail addy, so communication will continue), which I was reading on the 8 hour flight from the ATL to Amsterdam and now I will have to pick up where I left off in a new book I will get in the States. I got to share with him a little too about Christian Spirtuality (a concept that Donald Miller coined in Blue Like Jazz) and having a relationship with God. I hope that the seed sticks in and grows... he is a very smart guy. I also gave him our last Passion CD that was donated to us by the Passion folks (thanks Jennifer Hill!!!)... I think he liked the songs that Kristan sang this week and we even ran into him on the "tour" and talked for a little bit.
The concert last night was incredible. The band from Risttee has some talent... I think that they are going to do well in the production department. A lot of students came out and listened to the show and the gospel was shared in song... in addition the students that attended were made aware of The Living Room event that we are having tonight.
We are on the home stretch! God is awsome!!!
