Dzien Drobry! (good afternoon)
I hope that everyone is doing well and surviving the heat. The weather here has been finicky, really hot then cold, which might have something to do with me being sick again. This time I have strep, but thankfully it isn't to bad yet and the doctor is coming today! Woohoo! I don't think I've ever been so excited to see a doctor. Hahaha... Actually, the doctor that is coming just got baptized this weekend with about 13 other people at camp. During the service everyone who was getting baptized gave their testimony- doctors, college and high school students, fathers, and families, all who were brought to Christ by others who wanted share how Christ had changed their life. I don't remember the names of everyone, but I hope you can still understand One story about a father, daughter, and friend that touched my heart. The daughter she spoke first, telling how she grew up with a catholic background, which was how everyone began their story, but there was no relationship with Christ. Because of circumstances and frustration she walked away from the church for awhile. A few years later she came to a basketball camp at Proem that a friend invited her too. Her friend had recieved Christ at basketball camp a few years prior. The daughter had come to camp only for basketball, but walked away with much more, a heart for Christ. When she came home her father noticed a difference and began to listen to what his daughter had to say about God. After reading the Bible and searching for what his daughter had, God revealed Himself and the girls father accepted Christ as his Savior. One by one lives are changed and people are giving a hope, a purpose.
Other Highlights:
Four other interns from America are here, well one is on her way. I now have a roommate, Hannah, who is actually from Greentown, IN, which is about 20 min. from my home town aaaaannnndddd her grandma lives in Tipton. It's crazy how small the world really is and the sense of humor God has. Hannah is teaching in the school today, since she has a degree in English as a second language. The other interns and I taught at the language school last night to cove for some peopel who were gone. The best part of the class is when the students walk in and look at you with big eyes and a question on there face. That question is, "Do they speak polish?" and there's another one, "Where is my real teacher?" As soon as the word "um" is said they know that English is the only language that will be coming out your mouth. No one ever seems to excited about lol... Anyway, the classes went well. I taught an advance class of adults, that means they already know a lot so I corrected more than I taught. We did introductions, answered some questions, and played a game, so class was pretty simple.
Well, I thats about it for now.
Do Widzenia! (goodbye)
