The ministry in Derby has been awesome.  We have spent a lot of time in the local skate park, hanging out with the kids there. They are really nice kids and the Lord has blessed us with some really good conversations. I liked the skate park because it was something we did about four times, so I really did get to know some of the girls and i feel like the more I can see someone the better the relationship- so that was awesome.  We also did relational ministry in the Muslim community.  A ton of Derby, and England is Muslim.  So we spent a few afternoons in those communities praying or hanging out with kids.  We also worked a lot with a church this week- and spent a day in a park in a poor area of Derby face painting and making balloon animals (yes, we all learned how to do that in Belize) but the kids loved it.  We also held an event at the church so kids could come and watch the movie Tangled- it probably one of my favorite things we did.  We also did dramas for the kids (clearly i do not act- but YWAM is very good at pushing you to do things you're not skilled in;) and it is a cool way to display the gospel.

Being in England has been good but hard.  It is really cold here- and rains a lot. And Derby is just a heavy city.  People always tell us how much energy we have, and how "motivated" we are.  Which we do have energy, and we are motivated, but that is not the normal here. I am so glad God sent us here so we could be boost for some people.

We leave tomorrow for Edinburgh tomorrow.  I am SO PUMPED to go to Scotland. We are working at a huge festival there called the Fringe Festival.  We are getting on a bus at 9:30 am and should arrive around 7 pm.  So its going to be a long day of traveling but a good day to be off our feet.

I wont lie- i really miss texas this week! and the caribbean of coarse, but we are all excited for the next step!

Love yall!
