This weekend became a healing for body and soul. I went to Wheaton, one of Chicago's suburbs to visit Nicholas, who I worked together with in Uganda and now studies at Wheaton College, and his wife Sylvia. Again it was really good to come to somehow the country side and feel the peaceful and quiet atmosphere there. Saturday evening we just relaxed at home with a big cup of milk-tea, and I was taken back to Uganda for a few seconds:)
The Sunday started with a Bible class that Nicholas attends before church and continued with a service after. After church, While Sylvia went home to prepare lunch, me and Nicholas walked around in the beautiful sun to picture the spring. And I almost didn't believe what I got served for lunch, cabbage, meet and chapati!!
In the afternoon we went for a IFES-meeting, where we heard IFES-news and did a lot of praying.
When we came home in the evening I went for a walk by my self, to have some quiet-time, and just feel the peaceful atmosphere that was there. Thank you for a really Nice weekend Nicholas and Sylvia! Next time I see you will probably be in Uganda:)
This week is my last here in Chicago and at Jesus People! I've had a good time here, but I think it's time to move on. As Kay like to say, "There is a time for everything" (Eccl 3,1a), and my time as a dishwasher is soon over. I will miss many of the people here, but with today's technology (Facebook, MSN and MySpace) I hope to keep in touch:) And It's nice to know that I will have a place to come to here in Chicago! The next month I will do a lot of traveling, and I'm sure I will have some really exciting weeks! It all starts with some restful days in Fort Wayne:)
