Church and the Choir

As promised, I am posting a picture of our church here in Tripoli, Church of Christ the King, an Anglican Episcopal church. I have mentioned the choir several times, so Rick and I took a very quiet video during their song this past Friday morning. It was a beautiful song called "Hold Me Close". The man I love to watch is on the far left of the video, that smile lights up the whole room!!

Also, one picture of the outside of the church, very old, Spanish architecture. We listened to a sermon on doubt, and how to deal with doubt. Trusting God is so hard to do, and I pray for the strength to trust Him every day that we are here. He does have good plans for each of us, "plans to give us hope and a future." I'm so thankful that we have a church family here to worship with each week. Wanted to share them with you.

Also, on Friday night, we attended another company party. Due to Ramadan, and the breaking of the daily fast which occurs between 7:30 and 8:00, then the hour of prayer which follows, the party did not begin until 9:30, and we rolled into bed at 1:30 AM. I felt like I was in college again keeping late hours. We had a lot of fun, there was a group of musicians who played instruments, and danced, actually twirled around and around. One got so dizzy, he fell to the ground !! On the way home, we got into the worst traffic nightmare. All of Libya it seemed was shopping at 1:00 AM, and the streets were packed. We're talking tiny babies to older people were out, just like it was the middle of the day. I've never seen so many people. Day becomes night here during Ramadan.

My love to each of you, Lynn
