July 27- August 2 Sopron, Hungary.

I attended the Connect Conference hosted by Christian Associates. My time with the church planters of CA proved very fruitful and affirming. Darrin Jones (pictured here), a church planter in Aix-en-Provence, France said to me, “If you aren’t living a missional life at home, don’t think you will do it in Europe.” I really resonated with this. In fact I have told myself this very thing for many years, but to hear it from someone who lives overseas resonated even more. Something about Darrin’s comment just gave me freedom. I could sense a big sigh of relief in my spirit. I know that God has me exactly where he wants me for now and I am so thankful.

Freak out! I worked with Darrin back in the summer of 1991. Crazy.

Amy,
I've been following your blog since you first sent out the notice that you'd be going to Europe. I just noticed this recent picture and did a "freak out" to see Melinda Means smiling back at me! She and I were at DTS together, took several classes and even lived nearby one another (walking partners at 6 am!). Did you know her before this trip? And might you have any contact info for her? I'd love to send her a note.
