February 23, 2010 …if you pay attention. One day while visiting Mark at his apartment I noticed something that I had not seen before – take a look at this photo – can you see it?
It is a car parked right outside his building with “Illinois License Plates” in the middle of Petrich. As you can tell from the snow it hasn’t moved in a while. We do not know who the car belongs to and how it got to Bulgaria but we are going to try and find out – Mark has placed his card with name, phone and email address – explaining that he lives in Building #52 and he speaks English.
Chances are it was someone who went to Chicago (where a large Bulgarian population live in the states) for awhile, worked and bought a car and then brought it back with them to Bulgaria. Any way it is a lead and a possible contact for us.
It did not seem strange to me until I remembered where I was and that this was out of place.
Reminds me that we can see God and opportunities to share God in all kinds of ways and places if we will just look for the signs that are all around us.
Pray that we would connect with the owner of the car.
Pray for the Young Adult English Club – we had a 100% increase in attendance from last week!
Pray Team Bulgaria – as March arrives so does a great deal of travel and teaching opportunities. Pray for safety in travel and discernment to know what to say!
