Day 31 Sunday June 27th 2010

Hello again! Today I got up and fixed myself breakfast (that's right, I figured out how to make food that tastes ok, surprisingly enough)! I had my usual 4 scrambled eggs with cheese added for some protein, fried salami, and orange juice to drink. Then after my shower I had a large sized strawberry yogurt, and some milk to wash it down. Then I read until it was time to ride to church. Once it was time, I got on my bike and rode across the river to RRBC. Church was good and Alvis gave me a book on Biblical Theology to study while I'm here. The book is titled "According to Plan" by Graeme Goldsworthy. The book gives a basic understanding of the historical flow of the Bible and God's plan for salvation from the very beginning, looking at the Old Testament in light of the Gospel in the New Testament. It is geared for the average person or "lay person" and I strongly recommend it to anyone who wants to understand the Bible. Anyway after the service was over, some of the teens and I (also one young adult) went out to eat at Čili Pica (pronounced Chili Pitsa in English). I had a delicious calzone, a strawberry milkshake, and coke to drink. Once we were through eating, we went to a lake near the Sauka's apartment. I rode my bike with one of the teens, and the others took a tram. We had a fun time at the lake playing badmitten, throwing the frisbee, and building a fire. Once we were through at the lake it was time for me to ride home! It was a long ride but I got home safely at around 12:30 am...I guess that's about it!

P.S. An interesting note is that Alvis mentioned the song "Nothing Else Matters" by Metallica during his sermon. All I have to say is that a pastor who mentions Metallica because he listens to them on a regular basis and enjoys their music is just awesome!
