Fitting in … sort of
21 Oct 2007 by Tom in Poland
We’ve had some pretty good times over the past month, but I have to say, an easy highlight of the trip was walking through a suburban Polish supermarket with Scott Pursley (our pastor), a guy from Cleveland and a couple from Brazil. The Brazilians didn’t speak English and none of us spoke Polish. And Scott was there with a funny hat on. It was awesome. We stood out, but oddly, nobody stared at us.
We had just come from a church youth group meeting, where Josh, Jamie, Scott and I spoke to a group of about 30 kids. We each shared a bit about what God has been doing in our lives. It was translated into Polish for the kids, even though a handful of them spoke broken English. They smiled and nodded at us, so hopefully there wasn’t much lost in translation.
OK, we need to go eat some breakfast and then go to a Polish church meeting. More later.
