Refugee: Curious Tea House Visitor - Athens
|
|
My day was full at the Athens Tea House* with the usual...helping carry
upstairs the fruit, vegetables, and bread; orienting the new director and
discussing important issues with him; meeting with the Board president; making
some phone calls regarding our upcoming Seekers' Weekend Retreat, leading the
Seeker's Class; giving out 50 tickets for showers the next day; giving blankets
to two Iranians who are very interested in learning more about Christianity;
going out to get lunch for our volunteers; and then one more thing happened
before my day ended at the A.R.C.*
Tea House was over for the day, having served about 450 meals to hungry
refugees, a low number for us. The kitchen, dining room, bathrooms, and
halls had all be swept and mopped. The Greek class going on in one of the
classrooms had only a few students in it. Most of the volunteers had gone home.
Someone knocked on the office door...

personnel changes taking place within the People
Development/Mobilisation team at ITUSA during the new year. Some
are leaving, some are coming and some are shifting focus.

Dann writes "The first thing I noticed was how warm it was in their tiny apartment,
and I thought to myself, "Thank you, Lord." With snow on the ground
outside, we were all feeling the effects of an unusually cold December.
That night, we'd stopped by to have before dinner drinks with our Kosovar
friends, Nagib and Leonat. The second thing I noticed was how much
Nagib looked like Paul. That was because he was dressed in Paul's
clothes.

Dann writes "In June 1993, a joint venture of International Teams and Sonlife
Ministries called the Josiah Venture was initiated. The goal of the
Josiah Venture has been to fan into flame a movement of God among young
people as they mobilize the local church to evangelize and disciple
youth. "

John will complete his two years in January. He has expressed the
desire to serve long-term with The Oasis. So with the approval of his
team leaders, area leader and home church, we welcome John as an I.T.

John plans on taking a furlough from late-January through sometime in
