Tonight we write to you from Belgrade. It has been an excellent day of travel, introductions and orientation…
Highlights included:
- watching the sunrise from the wide windows of an Oak Hall coach as we made the first leg of the journey towards Luton airport…
- hearing something of each other’s stories as we travelled first on the coach, then by plane and finally by minibus to reach the centre of Belgrade;
- exploring Serbia’s capital city – today 36 degrees Celsius – and sipping home-made lemonade in cafes before climbing the castle walls above the confluence of the mighty Danube and Sava rivers;
- receiving a hearty Serbian welcome at the Bible College and being served “rostilj”;
- praying about the week ahead and reading the first verses of 1 John – the book we are studying this week;
- playing frisbee and then sitting by a fire and finally watching the sun set on the Vojvodinian plains beyond the Bible College;
Tomorrow after a welcome sleep, we head south through Cacak to begin our first assignment as a team…
Glad you all arrived safely and praying for you as you head out tomorrow. Hope you sang some amazing songs around the campfire. Lots of love, Andy and Karen
