For those of you who don't already know, I'm going to Europe! I'm leaving on thursday and I will be going to France for two weeks, then Belgium for one week and England for one week. (With perhaps a little Netherlands thrown in for good measure). I'm hoping to blog every couple of days so as to keep you updated on my exciting adventures, so hold tight!
In France I'll be spending time in Marseille (south France) with a bunch of other people who are from Salt & Light churches across Canada. We'll be telling people the good news about Jesus and spending time encouraging a local church there. I'm meeting my sister Alpha in Belgium and we'll be doing some sightseeing there and then visiting friends in England.
If anyone wants me to bring them anything particular from overseas, just let me know! I'd also appreciate your prayers as I navigate in a foreign language (French, of course) and am challenged to share my faith and work with a great team of other christians. I'm excited to see what God will do through us and to us!
Another item for prayer, while we're on that topic, if you remember, is my not-so-straightforward future plans. I'm in the midst of applying to some more schools but my heart's number one desire for the rest of my life is to treasure Jesus, so I'd appreciate if you'd pray that I don't get distracted by all the chaos from the face of God.
lots of love!

Hope you have fun in Europe Heath. Can you bring me home some funky old European coins? Or better yet, some ancient books from a dingy second hand bookstore in London? A choice title would be: "Sir Gibby" (George MacDonald). Or, I suppose the best gift you could fly home for me would be a vintage oil painting of a tall ship sailing the high seas. On second thought, just bring me back some cash in Canadian currency (jk!).
Seriously now Heath, may God bless your travels with His hand of mercy and grace, and may you allow the Holy Spirit to direct your every move. I will be praying as well that God will unfold some of His kingdom plan for you as well.
Love,
Ozzy
If you have a tiny bit of extra luggage space, you could bring me back some tea from the British Isles. Only if you have extra luggage space.
I've changed my mind, Heather, and what I'd really like is some seeds- any kind, but particularly something we don't grow here, and preferably flowers.:) Some kind of herb will do too.:) I know it's illegal, but you can do it if anyone can!
God bless your travles- look for His good hand everywhere!
