The Sun is Shining....

The sun is actually shining right now. But wait...don't I live in Belgium where we get more than 200 days of rain every year? Yes, it's true, but it's nice when the sun does shine. Earlier today gale force winds drove the rain against my window to wake me up, so sun, with a few clouds is a welcome surprise. Just this weekend we had snow, but it seems with the sun today I see a glimpse of spring's arrival.

Oh yes...spring...trees are budding, grass is growing, little romances start to blossom on Bible school campuses...and in just a couple of months, we celebrate Easter and the resurrection of our Lord, Jesus Christ. I always love the spring. Something about new life and warmth over cold that boosts my spirits and energizes me.

This spring we at CTS will send out students for Student Ministry Week (the week prior to Easter). The students will engage in local church ministry for a week of intensive practical training. I'm excited that teams will be here in Belgium, as well as in Czech Republic, Sweden, and Spain. Thanks for praying for our students and for CTS.
