Hi everyone! Hoorah I've officially been in the UK for almost two and a half months now. My first bi-monthly newsletter will be out soon to highlight my first few months here. In the meantime, I thought I would share some pictures of what I've been up to.

This is one of the crafts we did with the kids learning about the Bible. This is edible baby Moses in a basket. Yum!

The Olympic Stadium from the 2012 Olympics in London

TFG volunteers left to right; Mwa, Johann, Torben, and Nora

Eating brownies on the river Thames

Watching classic English themed movies in England #Mary Poppins

Witnessing an Anglican confirmation service

Running into Occupy London in front of the Parliament building

Making some Ohio state pride Buckeyes for my English friends

Visiting Ed's American cuisine diner with my host family. Burgers and fries baby!

Spending time in the countryside with my YAGM loves and then some :)

Getting to see amazing places like this! (Chatsworth House is it's official name. Also known as Pemberly or Mr. Darcy's house from the movie Pride and Prejudice)

...and this. 


Experiencing faith growing moments like this (this is a Cairn made of shoes. A Cairn is a Scottish word for a man made pile of stones put on paths as a memorial or land markers. Our Cairn is a mile marker of our journey together in faith. "We dedicate ourselves to the journey.")

Time with these people is always a good time #YAGM UK
