Finding a place to "nest" in Madrid!
Nolen and I love Madrid! The subway, train and bus systems make it great to get around, even though we do not at this point have a car! The historic center of the city is incredibly ornate and beautiful. Our colleagues who also work in Madrid sharing Christ and starting churches are wonderful folks and have hosted us well. Here is the prayer request! We need to find an apartment - as I say, a place for me to make a nest. Even as I write these words, I remember that Jesus said of himself, "the Son of Man has no place to lay his head". Please pray with me that Christ who knows my needs will help me find the right place for me to make a home here in Madrid. May I be satisfied with His providence in this! We have been hunting for several days now for an apartment and the search has been frustrating. Apartments here are very small. You just don't put much "stuff" in them! Please pray with us as I trust the Lord to provide a place for our "nest". And if some of that "stuff" won't fit, well, I truly know that I am promised His strength for whatever is necessary as I follow Him! Hugs and thanks for praying.

NOLEN AND SHEILAH,
ReplyDeleteSO GREAT TO LEARN IN THE KNCSB Digest you are well and in Madrid. Later when you are settled, we will send you info about our good friend in Denia, Spain (He pastors largest evangelical -SBC church in Spain and directs an Alpha-Omega accredited school) He's amazing and gets to Madrid once in a while; as a matter of fact, we were there with him 2 years ago.
Later and much love and prayers,
ERNIE AND CAROLINE CASTRO
