THE NOSE BLEED SECTION

We are seven thousand and some feet in the air.  Baguio City is the summer capital for the Filipino government because of it's famous moderate weather.  Today has been no exception...it's been a perfectly sunny and cool Spring day here in the sky!   We are staying in at APTS (Asian Pacific Theological Seminary an Assembly of God College.)  It's quite nice...it has a shower and drinkable water...something we take for granted back home.  Baguio is built on the sides and tops of several mountains ranges that are  link together by the 300 thousand people that scurry around through the steep streets.  We have an incredible view from our nose bleed section at APTS...it truly is stunning.

This is the same view just from Darwin's house.

Today consisted of a morning bible study and prayer time, a wonderful lunch at Darwin's house, and exploring the steep terrain shopping for Carrie, Mom, and the kids.  It's been very pleasant today!  We even explored the center of downtown Baguio...I now know the definition of MAYHEM!!!  I'm not going to try and explain...hopefully I'll take some pics and put them up soon and let the pics do the talk'n.

Love ya'll!!!  Keep praying!!!  Your prayers have kept me safe thus far...(there was a bus bombing in Manila the day we arrived, a flash flood after we passed through a town a few days ago, and we dodged rebels attacking relief workers aiding the villagers of the same town we passed through...the rebels killed a couple of police officers and took another...)  So, your prayers are coveted and appreciated!!!

The workshop will be officially starting Monday morning......please pray God grants me knowledge to share with this whole new lot.  Sometimes the language barrier is challenging.  I'm still not overly sure what I'm supposed to teach.....so, please, pray wisdom hits me on the head.

In His Grip,
