Thursday evening we hosted Bible study in our home. Although our numbers were fewer than normal it was an uplifting time. Tristan led the study over John 12-13, specifically focusing on Jesus washing the disciples' feet.
Friday night was spent with the people shown in the picture below. We have three more regular FriendSpeak readers that were not able to come, but we did have a lot of fun with our smaller group. Along with a lot of great snacks, including Tristan's salsa, we played a lot of different card games and the game of Pit.
L to R: Carey, Mitch, Danny, Jie, Isobel and Tristan. (not pictured, the photographer - ME!)
Isobel and Jie playing a fierce game of Speed 2!
In other news... on Thursday we received a letter in the mail stating that our let would be terminated at the end of our 6 month contract. Our landlord wants to sell, so we have to move out. This was really not something we wanted to hear, since we really like this place and wanted to be in it for as long as the rest of our stay in Scotland. We spoke with our landlady today, and she was really nice about letting us get out of our contract early if we find a place and wanted to take it. So, round 3 of the house hunt begins!
We did receive some uplifting news in the mail on the same day. Outreach, a missions organization we were a part of while at Oklahoma Christian University, sent us some encouragement notes. We think that God knew we would need them with the news of our let being cancelled. He was right! Thank you Outreach!

Sorry to hear that you're going to have to move again. Moving can be such a pain. I'll be praying that you'll be able to find something you like soon and that God will bless you with good neighbors.
Sorry you have to move again. You are starting to sound like Justin and I. :) We miss you all and hope the hunting goes well.
