1415 - met Sarah in the bookstore to shop for our church

1530 - afternoon group discussion

-this was an emotional one for me. I freely talked about my anger at God and not understanding His plan for me. I was pleasantly surprised at the love and support I felt from my group. We had to state something that we were thankful for; one of the beautiful German ladies stated she was thankful for me. That was a surprise. It's amazing the connections you can make in such a short time. 

One of the German men has a hard time with English. We have a hard time remembering to talk slower, not to mumble and to enunciate. I hope he continues to remind us to speak up, so he can hear. 

 

1715 - met with Sarah at the coffee/snack bar to write our postcards. Hope they make it before we get home. 

1745 - met Kerstin and the rest of my group at the talk on idols. It was done by one of the Brothers and was quite interesting. I'll post info on it in another blog, if anyone is interested. 

1900 - the best meal at Taize to date. Pasta with meat sauce; parmazan cheese; bread; chocolate pudding; and cookies. Yum! Yum!!
