gOod bYe & bApTiSm iN tHe lAnD...


Sad news first... we had to say good-bye from Jo and Kathrin... Jo was here since November and he gave so much to this place and to all of us... He's an amazing person...a real servant !!! Kathrin, His girlfriend also came to spend Christmas and New Year with us and rest a bit from her studies... It was so nice to see her again after meeting her in my trip in Germany and being one week in Taize with her...she's really special as well... I love them both !!!
The good news was Sven's baptism...he was already a follower of Christ, but out of obedience he wanted to get baptized and specificaly in the land here in POrtugal... It was a really special moment for him and all of us ...
It was cold, but it was worth it :-)




The tatoo in his back says "Crucified for our sins"... and it's not done yet, he has a picture for his whole back to finish...
There's no greater miracle then a transformed heart :-)
Thanks Jesus !!!
