Adventures with God during the holidays
Last June Harry and Suzanne went to Hungary with Eugène and Josée. They have had a nice holiday and would drive back home two days later, when Suzanne said that she had not been experiencing something special with God this years. Josée answered that they had been driving everywhere without any problem, and always had parking space and asked if this was not enough? Still Suzanne wanted to experience God once again really close...
On the way back home they stayed one day in Passau, at the Austrian-German border. That evening they were enjoying a delicious ice cream on a terrace. Suddenly they saw very dark clouds coming their way; they rushed to the car to drive to the hotel. Meanwhile the sky became pitch black.

Fasting days: a unique event
From 24 to 26 January we had again a few fasting days, this time in “de Boerekreek” in St.-Jan-in-Eremo (East-Flanders). It was the first time we went to this location and that always gives some extra tension. Will the rooms be ok? Will it be warm enough over there? Last year in the Ardennes it was very cold the first day since the heating was not up in time…
We were warmly welcomed by the staff of “de Boerekreek” and we got the restaurant for our meetings. The rooms were very clean and all rooms had a separate bathroom with a shower and a toilet and it was nicely warm everywhere, which is very nice when fasting a few days.
We enjoyed times of marvelous worship, powerful studies, many moments of silences – In which we could soak or go for a walk in the beautiful nature surrounding the center – and times of prayer for each other, the country, our churches and many other subjects.
As Tamara put it nicely: “We have been fed very well once again!”
