My neighbors




Well I have not written much about them but if you recall from my first week in Presov post there are two young people a brother and sister who are my neighbors now. There names are Milan and Lydka (Lydia). I have been spending time with them every week. Sometimes I will go to their house and sometimes they will come over to mine. They are two really special people to me they are the same age as my brother and sister. Therefore, I affectionately call them my adopted brother and sister, and they say I am like their older brother. On Sunday we spent the whole day together. We began the morning with a nice American breakfast that I cooked (we have been trying each others cultural meals). Of course it is pancakes! We hiked up to this spot above town called Calvaria. This was a great opportunity to get to know them better. We had a good conversation about God, his existence, and what faith is. It was really interesting to talk about this because we all had a different perspective on the topic. As I continue living in relationship with these two I am praying that God's love will be seen in my life and that they will experience His love and acceptance as I have. Please pray that God's love will flow through my life and that each day I will grow closer to him and become more like Christ in the way I live and act toward others!
