After being in Scotland for nearly two weeks, I finally feel like I'm getting the hang of things. We found baking soda, I received mail to the correct address and we successfully navigated our way through town at night. Graci and I have had no luck though in tracking down the elusive ice cream van. To everyone who has been wanting to hear from me: the phone and internet will be functional this Friday.
We took a trip to Stranraer [Strain - rar] on Saturday with the church's GO Team. This team, along with members of the Stranraer RP church and their counterparts from Ireland, organize a day every year where they disperse into the town to distribute 3000 leaflets containing the good news of Christ. We were privileged to assist with this distribution this year. Not only were we warmly received by the members of the Stranraer church but we were awed by the beauty of the sea side city. It is wonderful to see how the word of the Lord spreads. In church on Sunday, Pastor Andrew told us how there were two RP churches (Stranraer and Airdrie) and one church plant in Glasgow this time last year. This year there are four RP churches, with the edition of the churches in Glasgow and Ireland, and more church plants in Edinburgh and Stornoway.
There is not much to report on this rainy Tuesday in Airdrie. Hopefully once the internet is up and working there will be more exciting news to convey. Until then, I'm going to try to stay dry on our run back to the house.
