Pastor Dave just finshed watching USA womens softball beat Greece 7-0 in 5 innings. Our girls brought home the gold. They were amazing to watch, and they only gave up 1 run out of all the games they played.
This is one of my salads with a huge chunk of feta cheese in the middle of it. A salad is made up of mostly, tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, very little lettuce, and some onions. But it was very tasty and you found the cheese at every meal.
These are some amazing grapes that were growing right where I stayed in Kissaffia, Greece. They made me think about how we are to be fruitful in Christ. Plus they tasted great.

Here were my living conditions while in Athens Greece. My bed is the bottom one in the very back. And NO, a hurricane did not just go through, this is ten guys living in the same room, but we had a blast. Oh yeah, no air conditioning, with temps busting over 100 degrees. That will help increase your prayer life.

Pastor Dave with some of the staff of Scripture Union where I stayed. There was over 250 people that stayed where I was and there was very little staff. They worked very hard. From Left to Right, Spiro, Evie, Anggelic, Pastor Dave, Katarina, Fibi, and Costa. There were more staff but getting them all together was tough. The people captured my heart and I fell in love with them. What awesome servants for the Lord. They were volunteers, not paid staff.

I had the awesome privilage to meet Kirk and Tamra in Greece. They live in California and love serving the Lord. Love you guys, and praying for your ministry!

Pastor Dave standing on a roof top with the Acropolis behind him. It was an amazing sight to see.

Pastor Dave getting the chance to get a shot (no pun intended!) with a guard at the Parliament. I also had the chance to see the changing of the guards, which was interesting to see.

Pastor Dave in Syntagma square with the Parliament in the background. They park and fountain was not there 3 weeks before the Olympics started, and they have worked very hard everywhere to make things happen so quickly like this.
Pastor Dave with two Japanese ladies who competed in Synchronized swimming. The one on my left was the coach. It was awesome to share with both of them because the gospel is very rare in Japan. The Coach asked Christ into her life and the other girl just listened as we talked. What a moment.

Had a chance to share and lead both of the sprinters from Africa to Christ. They both had very sweet spirits and loved chatting with them

This is an Olympic athelete from Demark. We chatted for about 35 minutes and I had the chance to share about Christ with him. I prayed with him to ask Jesus into his heart and I told him that was better than anyone ever winning a gold medal. Please Keep him in your prayers. There was more of his team mates listening, pray the seed of Christ was planted.

Pastor Dave with two fencing Olympians from Brazil. I had the chance to share about the love of Christ with them and they listened and the girl beside me asking Christ into her heart. Thank you Lord for allowing me the privilege to share and see those come to you. We were at the base of Mars Hill.

Pastor Dave sitting on Mars Hill where Paul preached to the masses about their 12 gods and their one unknown god. With the Acropolis in the background, it was awesome seeing biblical sites come to life for me.

Pastor Dave standing at the Parthenon of Acropolis. If you are ever in Nashville, you can see a scaled replica of the Parthenon near Vanderbilt, its pretty amazing to see. But the real one was more amazing. They are trying to rebuild it.

Pastor Dave with a Equestrian rider from Canada. We are standing beside the Parthenon and I had the chance to share with him about Jesus. Please keep him in prayer.
