Tired

I know this is becoming the refrain of my posts lately, but I'm sorry that it's been so long since I last posted.

The past couple weeks have been really full. Between working on Jim's library; helping Elsa with remodeling projects; preparing and teaching the children's class; continuing English Bible studies; starting a "game afternoon" for the teenagers; working with Michaela and Ingrid to prepare the ladies' Bible class study; and visiting some members of the congregation in Braunschweig, life has been a bit busy of late. This week in particular I've had something going on in the morning, afternoon, and evening every day since Sunday, and quite honestly, this evening I'm just tired.

I'd really hoped to finish a full update this evening, but it's going to have to wait until tomorrow. I'm having trouble keeping my eyes open right now. Hopefully this all even makes sense. :)

To all of my faithful readers (hi Jenna!), thank you for keeping up with me and for caring about me and about the work here in Bremen. Thank you also for your ceaseless prayers. You all mean so much to me, even when I don't say so often enough. Gott segne Euch und bis morgen.... (God bless you all and until tomorrow....)

Alicia! I randomly just found your blog. We have the same blog name, and I was randomly looking for mine (Googling myself) and found yours. How are you? How is everything in Germany? I really need to come and see you guys...

Hey Daniel! What are you doing stealing my blog name? :P

Things here are going well, overall. I stay pretty busy, which is good because it means that work is getting done, but it's also sometimes just tiring. Hence the title for this post.

Bremen had a campaign group for the first time since 2004, and I couldn't help but think of our group's adventures. There are a few who wanted to continue reading, so Elsa and I are doing follow-up with them. We're also hosting an English movie night once a month which is helping keep up with the others who don't want to read. By the way, you did know that Jim died last October, right?

Hope things are going well with you. And yes, you should come visit Bremen. I get asked occasionally about what the other campaigners from my group are doing now, so I'm sure everyone would be thrilled to see/hear from you.

Hi Alicia,

We hope you are doing well! Looks like the exchange rate is going in your favor at the moment. Hope everything is!
