Friday was a day off and after three long days of leaving in the morning and getting back late at night, we were ready for a breather. May 1 is a national holiday in Czech similar to Valentine's day. One of the traditions states that you need to kiss someone under a blooming cherry tree or you will fade to nothing in 12 months....so look for some fading in the non--coupled members of Rescued.
It was eerie with the streets so quiet in the morning as shops and offices were closed.
But a short walk to the square revealed a festival of music and booths. Some slept in, others got up for an early breakfast and awesome cappacino. In the afternoon we travelled by tram to Jared and Daniella's home for a wonderful meal(Svickva) and fellowship and The Debora's chocolate cake. We walked to the top of the Holy Hill where the Basilica (Catholic Church) sits overlooking all of Olomouc.
We are coming to the end of our tour but we ask you to pray for us as we are speaking and singing at a youth conference in the Kenning's church. The youth have open hearts and it is a joy to see and hear them worship. We want to finish well to this work that God has called us.
We appreciate your prayers and support as you all are a vital part of what we are doing here.
I know you will finish strong and that the word of our Lord will resound! I'll be praying for the young Czech folks...for sure God has been preparing them to hear your testimonies and witness His love poured out through you.
