The Spiritual Life Retreat and More

Hello! We have not posted in a few days, but a lot has happened.
We have taken a 4 day break from the Alpha teaching, so we have been seeing as much as we can of Hungary.
On the first day we went to the castle district where John showed us where he and Zsofi got married. He also scared me, Genesis, half to death by pretending to push me off the castle top. He's such a jo joke-ster and brightens everyone's day with his humor. You never really know when he's joking until he explains it to you;)
The next day we spent at John's office where we started our spiritual life retreat. Here we got to meet a wonderful man named Chad and got to spend more time with Zsofi. They were so kind to serve us with an intense 2 day study!
The first night of the study we ran to McDonalds where we got some "good old" American food. Then, we went over to the Wilson's' house to watch the kids while John and Zsofi got a much needed date night. The kids were so fun and their bedtime was too!
They all successfully brushed their teeth and squished into bed. John had already pulled out a book for bed time. I picked it up and looked at it. It looked pretty good, I mean, it had a horsey on it!
They had told us in advance that the girls really didn't like scary stuff.
So, I start reading.
And revising.
For John had given them a book about a nurse that rode a horse through the mountains. But it also told of each graphic injury that the people in the village suffered from.
By now, I was reading and then telling a similar story but not at all as horrible as the one I was reading.
They had many questions and were thoroughly confused by the time John and Zsofi came back home:)
John had no idea what the book actually was.
The 2nd day of the study was just as good, and Karl could come to the lunch!
Karl was a bit sick for a few days and had to leave today to make it to his sons graduation. :'(
We will miss him so much but we are so happy for his son, Justin.
Also, we went to the thermal baths last night.
It was quite and adventure because I had only one year to experience locker rooms:) I succeeded to get most of my clothing wet and then proceeded to walk out in the cold:)
It was very very fun to go with our team and experience what Hungary is very known for.
Over all, we had a great time and we are going to try to keep everyone posted!
We are also talking about getting Hungarian Mexican food...
