tiny belgian flags. the waffles, oh the waffles. pretty gardens. royal palace. reachEurope team in front of gaasbeek castle. pretty ivy walls. continental theological seminary. the grand place.
The first country we visited was Belgium. It is so beautiful, the people are friendly, and the waffles are reason enough to go back! During our 4 days in Brussels, we stayed at a seminary where we had training and prayer before the team departed for our separate mission fields--Romania and Berlin. The students at the seminary were so wonderful and accommodating to our large group. The airline in which we flew lost our bags for two days and the seminary students lent us their pajamas, shampoo, hair dryers, etc. They were amazing!
My favorite memory from Belgium: The president of the seminary school, Joseph Dimitrov, spoke to us at one of our training sessions and wow...there are no words to describe this man. He only spoke for an hour, but he left in imprint on my heart. He would tell a story that would make us laugh and weep at the same time. The love of Christ almost literally radiates from him. I don't know how else to describe it. I wish you all could meet him.
"The world of faith is not to enter into for a while. It is forever."- Joseph Dimitrov
Stay tuned for scenes from Romania--the country that stole my heart...xoxo
