Paperworks- In America we can get anything we want immediately, but things are very different hear. After a week of hustling, the bank account if finally good to go and I'm registered with the state. One big plus though is the socialist health care. There's this nice, big new hospital on the backside of town full of doctors just waiting to set my broken bones....and all for free.
Friends- It's been such a treat getting to know the youth of the church over in Donostia. They're so energetic and welcoming. I'm remembered from 2009, and it's so good to continue where we left off. As we learn about each other and trust one another more, I pray that the Spirit would bring out teaching points so that we can grow in obedience to Him. Also some of surfers here in Zarautz still remember me, so that's rad to have a couple familiar faces in town. These guys are super Basque and it's going to be neat learning their language and culture.
Video games- So, answer to prayer, we've got 2 locations for video game tournaments this month. One here in Zarautz on the 21st in a youth center and the other on the 20th at a bar in the next town over. Alright, praise God! Now the tournaments have to fill up with kids ready for a good time. In a related story, this picture is of

Janette with all of our laptops. Rodrigo, who is not pictured, is the son of the owner of the afore mentioned bar. He and his friend Janette love video games and with the release of this latest hot video game (Starcraft) I've been invited over to his place to play a couple times. He thinks I'm a freak when it comes to gaming and skating. He also doesn't know God, and has been asking questions about my faith. I've been able to share the full gospel with him and he's got a lot of respect for Maca (my house sister, who also works at the bar) and I and how we've placed our lives under God. Hurrah, videogames. God reigns there too!
Prayer requests:
1. I need a job
2. That I would continue to meet new Basque people
3. That the Lord would save this nation
praying for yah
