We drove to Stara Zagora today for church. The service was awesome. They sang alot of the same music we do here in the states, but in Bulgarian of course. Everyone was so friendly and wanted to practice their english with us. The pastor of the church encouraged his congregation to take a 3 hour trip to Sliven and see the church we have been working on. He is also making an effort to bridge the gap between the Bulgarian people and the Gypsys.

We were treated to an absolutely wonderful lunch and then spent some time shopping. Our hosts have been so wonderful to us. They made sure we were all able to call home at a cheap phone rate. After shopping we visited a seminary school and learn a lot more about the "Care for All" ministry that had taken on the task of carting us around and making the mission trip possible on the Bulgaria side. I cant say enough about how well they have treated us, they also have taken it upon themselves to join us in building the new church.
