I am going as part of a team from church to Ibiza as part of a bigger team. (check out their work)
I've never been to this island, so I can only imagine what it is like. If it is like any other Spanish island it will have many places of beauty. I will get to work in the west end of San Antonio late at night into the wee hours of morning and beyond!
I've been thinking about what I am looking forward to:
1) the rhythm of prayer and ministry, spending time in the prayer room and then going out on the streets; in my head that sounds like a retreat!
2) I'm going expectantly, watching for God to do many amazing things among the people we meet and among us as a team and as individuals, so I expect to come home 'changed' by this encounter
3) I'm actually looking forward to being 'out of my comfort zone' or 'uncomfortable' as someone suggested
4) I'm going 'hungry for God', daring to take this risk....
you see I'm a good bit older than those who normally go on these teams!!!
5) the challenge to get my feet wet, taking a risk for the kingdom of God is resounding in my ears....
While praying for the time I will be there John 4 keeps coming to mind.....
I'll try and blog a bit more before I go
