“This trip has been life-changing to say the least. I wouldn’t be too surprised if I found myself back in South America as it has quickly become my home away from home despite the language thing.”

My relationship with Christ grew faster while I was in England than any other time in my life because I knew with everything changing God was constant.  I got involved in Christian Union and made friends with many international people and realized the world is bigger than just the United States.  Although we came from different cultures we were worshipping the same God, which made Him seem even bigger to me.

I came to this semester wanting to be challenged and stretched. So far, I’ve gotten what I came for, in more ways than I imagined! God is transforming how I see missions, the church, non-believers, and myself. The structure for most of these changes is taking place in the church history class. For the first time, I feel like I’m truly beginning to grasp what was going on in the struggle between the Catholic Church and the reformers and why it was significant.

This is Chanelle and David Acton and our bible study that we have been meeting with once a week! Chanelle and her family are missionaries here in Sevilla and she has been so sweet to meet with a group of us weekly for bible study. We went to their church where David preaches and have been able to get involved in a few of their other ministries. One of the biggest blessings of this trip by far! We helped out at their church one day with a day camp to teach kids english and afterwards went to the Acton’s house where Chanelle made us a full blown American meal. You would have thought we hadn’t eaten in a week if you had seen our reaction.
