Full update.. meant for the church forum thing...

The church forum doesnt love me...
So i am posting -reposting this here...

Hi everyone,My 5th time in Estonia started exactly 2 months ago today and it has been a really brilliant time so far..For my first 9 days out here i had my Dad and brother with me which was really nice they make good roadies, pay for food and travel and are easily impressed by my language skills... Since getting back the majority of what i have been involved in has been outreach concerts with the band which have been going well. we have been getting concerts about twice a week! which is... nice added into that i am writing this update from inside the studio where we are presently recording our songs which is pretty exciting, but involves way too much waiting around... BoB also managed to burn out Kristjans car on the way to a concert more recently which was... interesting there are loads of pictures and even a video up on http://www.bob.ee if you like carnage... Thankfully we were all ok and thankfully we unloaded everything as soon as the car started smoking so the only thing of value that we lost was the petrol in the tank which thankfully the guys we played our next concert with more than covered the cost of.. Thankyou to anyone who has been praying for me and my safety we have an amazing God and we certainly felt so after that weekend.. The church in Pärnu whom i work with is currently trying to buy its first building after renting almost everything available since being started 15yrs ago. Its a massive step and needs a lot of prayer we actually are now meeting in the building we are hoping to buy as the lease was up on the old building before we got confirmation from the bank about a mortgage so its quite an odd situation at the moment... The youth group meetings on tuesdays are going well we have been getting about 25-40 youths every week and almost as many on sundays so the youth currently make up the majority of the church...
Coming up soon the young people of Sool Ja Valgus together with BoB are going to be putting together a pair of evangalistic tours one of the small villages of estonia to bless the people out there and to get the gospel out.. And the other around Pärnu to basically do the same thing again and make sure people know where the church is based nowerdays... All in all everything has been going brilliantly.. BoB has had even more prophetic words spoken over them about evangalising over the whole of Europe which we are taking to take on board now which means bob.ee will soon be in english as well so that its a little bit more easy to understand for those people out there (there must be a few) who are yet to make the leap to embracing Estonian language...
Ok so i am back in England in september on the 5th after what is shaping up to be a very busy august I am fairly sure again that this is not going to be my last time in Estonia so i will be trying to get work to raise funds to come back out here again.. Please keep praying for me that God will use me and keep me save and for the church out here for growth and strength see you all soonGod Bless

First week or so 5th time in Estonia...

Hey, So i have been here now for just a little over a week (I think) and i have so far had a pretty layed back time... i had my brother and dad out with me for the first 9 days so did lots of tourist'y things, ate lots of expensive food, spent too much time messing around at the beach and didnt spend any of my own money :D
So far i have had 3 or 4 conserts including one at a wedding :O all of which where pretty fun... oh and i went to finland with my dad brother and Kris to collect Kristjans new guitar head unit... which is ridiculously loud and expensive and pretty...
The day before yesterday me Jaanus, Kris and Lauri spent about 8hours pimping Jaanus's guitar cabinet which was fun and the results where awesome.. it kind of set me thinking a little about creation we put in a total of about 32 man hours of work on this cab and it was something we can all be proud of and it was blessed in so many ways but when you compare it to even some of the simple elements of the planet we live on the construction is shoddy and imprecise... For God to have created this amazingly complex world which we couldnt create ourselves with countless time money and materials and in the end been satisfied that it was good speaks
volumes about God i think...When we finished the cab and put the different elements together we where absolutley stoked.. it was probably the coolest thing is ever made so far in my life.. to say we thought it was good would be an understatement.. this was despite small mistakes in lots of places... God made this Universe and saw that it was "good" Gods Good is just so far above our good that its unreal and he still loves us warts and all... whoop...
Oh and Tarvo who plays bass in BoB has gone to the army now... :( thats sad.. its kind of funny how life ebs and flows how changes happen sometimes against what we would wish for but normally to a good end result (and always to and interesting new one)
More stuff has happened probably aswel.. but its not coming to mind right now.. next week is going to be manic we have 3 gigs i have i think 3 outreaches and i have to play football with the band against some americans... its going to be fun :)
God Bless...
