Concert Itinerary





Hello from Northern Ireland!!

We just finished three days in Belfast staying with my favorite couple, Lindsey and Cris Ile! The top picture is a cool one of the Northern Irish Parliament building in Belfast. The last two are from the Giant's Causeway on the north coast of Northern Ireland. It has been a fun time!

I will post more information later, but I wanted to let you know (especially people who are living in the London area: aka, Tracey, Steven, Melanie, and Andrew!)of the rest of our choir tour schedule. I would love to see people in London if anyone is around!

Tour is going very well. We all have seen God work amazing ways these last few days. One woman in Wales accepted Christ after our concert!

Here is the itinerary for the next week and a half!

London

Well, I have officially embarked on the first leg of my summer journey. The chorale took off to the UK right after graduation. (MY GRADUATION!) We got into England just as the Ash cloud was grounding all flights to and from the UK. We were the last flight into the airport!

We sang a concert last night (sunday) after being up 30+ hours. It was definitely a hard time to get through the service, but the Lord gave us strength! We had a free day today to recouperate and tour the great city of London! We stayed in host homes last night and today. It is such a blessing to spend time with believers from across the oceans. God is truly the God of everything. Our perspectives keep widening. I am very happy that the Chorale is able to come and minister these three weeks.

After this 3-week tour, I take a train to Paris and spend the remaining 6-weeks doing my internship. I do not know all the ins and outs of what I will be doing there, but some of my objectives are to get a better understanding of French culture, observe and help out with muslim ministry in Paris, brush up on French (aka, RE-learn it!), help conduct an English camp, observe/help out with ESL or TESOL ministries, and understand the ins and outs of ministry in France.
My internship is a time where I hope God will use it to lean my heart toward a specific ministry and destination. I will be seeking the Lord in his will for my life, specifically in what to do when the summer is over!

Thank you all for reading this update and supporting me on my internship for this summer. I will keep this blog updated as often as I can!

In His Grace,

Monica
