Sunday and Monday

On Sunday, we went to church and then mostly hung out with our host families because the rest of the week we will tend to leave early and get home late. At church, we observed the Lord's Supper and it was really cool. Rather then pass the bread and juice down the aisles, people go up to the front in small groups and take the communion together, out of a common glass and a common bread basket.
Many families chose to take their students around Weimar and see the sights and historical sights (many nationally famous philosophers and so forth). Jarrett and my family took us to Erfurt, the capitol of Thuringen, Germany (the state we're in). It was a lot of fun.

Today, Monday, we went into the schools and taught English for the first time. It was a lot of fun getting to know the kids and speak with them.

In Him,
